Alpha challenge - R

Hi there, well I'm still keeping up with the ongoing Alpha Challenge at The Craft Barn. This time we were given the letter R. For my first entry I chose Rectangle. I love the way the word sounds and rectangles are all around us. Just look and you'll see, that the humble rectangle is one amazing useful shape. Then I immediately thought Zentangle, with it rhyming and set about my dictionary. I created a painty background by smearing acrylic paint, in clashing colours dabbing all over with white paint and a baby wipe to bring it together. Then with three masks set about building up layers. Then cutting out rectangles and doing some Zentangle on them, glued them to my pages. Job done.  Thanks for popping by x
Happy crafting
