Jane
Reiter is the guest blogger this week.
She
introduced spectacular stones to us (well, most of us I think):
Petoskey Stones, found in Michigan. If you want to know more about
these very beautiful and interesting stones, go to the Diva blog.
She
asked us to make a tile inspired by these stones.
First
I went on the internet, downloaded a hexagon and traced it on a green
tile from my stock. After that I tangled this tile and loved how easy
(and relaxing) it was to do.
Thanks
Jane, I had quite some zen time.
Last
week I wrote that I wasn't able to make a mosaic because I don't have
Photoshop. Then I got a mail from Thailand from Susie Ngamsuwan with
a mosaic of my tile she made for me.
This
is what she sent me:
And
later an other mail with her explanation how I could do it myself in
a free online photo editor.
So
very kind of her!!! Thanks again Susie :-)
Thank
you for visiting my blog and I hope you leave me a comment. Work
created by fellow tanglers can be seen at 'I am the diva'.
Blessed be!

Prachtige Petoskey stoned tile met die mooie achtergrond. Wat attent van deze Thaise dame om je mozaïek zo compleet te maken. Hij is fantastisch zo!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenBeautiful times two. Love the colors too. I haven't yet completed last week's challenge, but I still plan to.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenLovely, petroskey Stone was fun to replicate for me too. Very nice of Susie to make 3 more sides to your mandala!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenGorgeous works :-))
BeantwoordenVerwijderenIt never occurred to me to use the computer to finish the "plate". I sat down and did 6 separate tiles! It did turn out lovely as did your Petoskey Stone!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenYour Petoskey stone tangle looks very nice on the green tile. I also quite enjoyed this challenge and I fell in love with Petoskey stones. Your plate mosaic from last week is very pretty. Is it hard to do the method Susie sent you? I don't have a fancy photoshop program, but I'd love to be able to create mirrored mosaics with a photo editor.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI love your Petrosky stone tile. Those colors are great and the design within has a very neat tribal feeling too it...but Wow! that completed mosaic is truly amazing;-) Well done both of you!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenOh, that Petrosky stone tile of yours if really beautiful. I didn't even have time yet, to look at this week's challenge, but seeing yours, I am all in....only a bit later. Hmm... maybe this is again something to ask the assistance of Photoshop? Thanks, Anne, for your very kind words. It was my pleasure.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenBoth are beautiful! ❤️️
BeantwoordenVerwijderenTerrific interpretation! Love the coloured tile you chose!💖

BeantwoordenVerwijderenLovely and very cheerful tile, dear Annemarie! Wonderful colours. Your completed "plate" is beautiful, too!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenYour Petoskey stones are radiant, Annemarie! A great example of reticula and fragments, too! I love the intricacy of your plate tile. How kind of Susie to digitally complete it, too! Thank you for reminding me that I was missing a picture on my blog this week! Thanks to you, it's finally on there!
