Muster Mixer # 12 (Narwal + 'Nzeppel)

This month's Muster Mixer Challenge offers us to mix together patterns 'Nzeppel and Narwal. Just like the author of this challenge CZT Anya Lothrope I have never used the pattern Narwal before, so I had to train first:

Narwal monotangle on black.

Narwal, Tipple and Florz on tan.

And below are my two attempts to mix the patterns.

Which one do you like best?

Totally white with shading.
(Without shading it is really hard
to distingwish between the two patterns)

Minimum shading,
but with black, gold and decoration.

Anyway the month has just begun and may be later I'll give it another try, as I did with the previous challenge (Crescent Moon + Facade) on the last day of October:

The string ("Trinity") I have used for this Zendala 

is taken from Anya's new book "Zendalas. Der Einsteigerkurs".

I love the book, as well as two previous - 

"Freude mit Zentangle - Der Einsteigerkurs: Zeichnen Sie sich glücklich!" 

(also available in English) and 

"Zentangle® Schritt für Schritt: Das neue Musterbuch" - 

the first one revealed me the world of Zentangle® and 

brought me to tangling in the first place, 

and I have never given Zendala a try 

before I opened the third one!

These books inspire and stir your imagination, so if enjoy this art form and can read German all of them are "must have" in your Zentangle® library.

That's all for now. All my previous and future entries for the Muster Mixer Challenge  you can find on my Pinterest Board and my new Zendala album you can find on Facebook. Thank you for stopping by and having patience to read my blog, I hope for and look forward to your comments!

P.S. And don't forget to check all the other entries for the challenge (they are wonderful!) and even participate yourself (if you haven't yet) here.
