Bleedthrumanade and the Weekly Challenge

Got lemons, make lemonade.  Got marker bleedthru, make bleedthrumanade.

And while you're at it, throw in your response to Laura Harms' Weekly Challenge #29.

CZT Sue Jacobs is the guest challenger this week, and the challenge is String Theory v. IV: Creative Genesis.  The idea is to take a string, tie it to a weight, and let it drop.  Trace around the string for the string to your zentangle.  My weight was a left-over ice cream stick from some Magnum ice cream (and now it's 'my' weight *sigh*  That's a weight-loss joke, ha-ha).  

By the way, if you try this challenge I recommend you don't do while there are ceiling fans overhead.  I had to twist and shift and hold my pen at odd angles to keep my string on the page and still long enough to trace it.  I suppose I could have got up and turned off the fan, but that would be cheating!

Ingredients: Letraset Markers (I got some new colors!) & Fineliners; Pentel Sunburst White gel pen; Faber-Castell Big Brush, Paperblanks Journal. 

I realized I hadn't added enough contrast in my color, so I used my Big Brushes to add some blue and terracotta to the back.  Then I went to the front and added a little blue.  Much better.
