New Challenge at DoubleClick Skittles! Use a Bug


Challenge #29 - Use a Bug

Aug. 19 - Sept. 1


So who hasn't doodled?  I used to doodle all the time when I was a kid.  Doodling turned to sketching, sketching turned to art classes.... which leads me to today's project.  I thought I would make my own Zentangle and color it.


I started by drawing a butterfly and adding sections to fill.  It's not very symmetrical, but I'm ok with it.  I'm just going with the flow.


My completed version is pictured above and ready to color.  Obviously, I'm not a professional!  But, it was fun to do.


Below, is a close-up of the butterfly.  I chose to embellish my butterfly using Purple Twilight, Sunshine Yellow and Sailboat Blue Skittles.  They blend perfectly with my colored butterfly.

You can purchase Skittles here:



As always, Skittles come in a multitude of fabulous colors and are handmade in batches in Carri's "lab".  There are 25 of these fun, bubble embellishments per bag and you can purchase most sets for under $4.00 or individually.  Plus shipping is FREE in the USA and PAYPAL is accepted.
