A Place to Start-December 2019 - Happy Holiday

Welcome to the December challenge at A Place to Start.  It's Anything Goes as always, with the option of Happy Holiday.  We'd like to see a card for Chanukah, Kwanza or Christmas.  Here's my simple Christmas card:

The plaid background was made using a stamp.  The candy canes are a stamp also. Everything is colored with my Spectrum Noir markers.  I really love how this card turned out. 

We'd love it if you would participate in our challenge.  Our DT has some wonderful inspiration. Click over and pay us a visit.

613 Avenue Create December 2019-Doodling or Zentangle Art

Hi there, my crafty peeps!  This month at 613 Avenue Create our Anything Goes Option is something I have never done before - Doodling or Zentangle Art.  I opted for the tiniest bit of doodling - I added dots around my image. You may not believe it, but it really stressed me to doodle like that on my card. My spacing is not quite even, but it is a handmade card, so it's not going to be perfect.  I kind of like it, but don't think I'll be doing any doodling in the future.  It's just not me - LOL!

I colored the digital image some time ago for the 30 Day Coloring Challenge.  I'm not sure where I got it, but I have had it a really long time.  All the shading was added by the artist so it was quick and easy to color.  I decided not to add a sentiment at this time.

Have you doodled or used Zentangle art before on your projects?  We hope you give our option a try. Check out the DT projects and see our winners from the last challenge.
