String Thing #35 and the Diva's Weekly challenge #162

I have decided to start this new blog for images to keep my other blog for writing about other subjects. And also, yay, this week I decided to take part in the Diva's challenge for the first time. This week she asked for strings that contain the tangler's initials. I swear there is an A and a C somewhere in there:

I have had a look at most of the other submissions and they are amazing. If you have not done so already, go and see them for yourself from here.

The other picture I want to share today is the String Thing #35. I have also drawn a tile with crescent moon but I prefer this one. I am still working on getting the value balance right and initially all the patterns were basically really light with thin lines in between, so everything was a bit bland. Thus, I kept adding shadows and extra lines within Chillon and thicker lines here and there. I like how festive and fluffy the end result looks and I am very keen to see what the others made of this challenge. If you want to, it's still time to participate.
