    The summer is officially here and I am thinking of taking some time off for a vacation. It might be a selection of day trips, a weekend getaway or if I’m very lucky a week long break. In any case I will need a travel journal to use as a scrapbook. I love collecting memorabilia, pictures

Lots of inspiration!
If you love Zentangle, if you love botanicals, if you love general pen and ink inspiration for drawing, then this book should be on your table. Lots of ideas, carefully organized, clearly made with care.

What a refreshing book on Zentangles! I love the use of color in the tangles, the art dolls and all the sample forms she offers us to fill with Zentangles. Glad to see she gives full credit to the originators of Zentangles and encourages us to buy materials from them. This book has me itching to try my hand at “tangling”!

M. McCloughry

This is a wonderful book! I love botanical Zentangles so it is very useful to have a book that does such an excellent of illustrating the tangles. If you are looking for a way to way to do botanical tangles buy this book. It is an wonderful resource.
