Diva Challenge #215 Labyrinth, Dylusion ink sprays

A labyrinth is not a maze. mazes are puzzles designed to vex the mind, but labyrinths are contemplative designs, designed to focus the mind . It is an ancient design, found carved into churches, temples and tombs around the world. a recent event in Sydney, Australia saw a labyrinth opened at Centennial park for the purpose of people from all walks of like to walk on and meditate upon. On May 2nd there will be a "World Labyrinth Day", a day to bring people all over the planet together as a symbol and tool for healing and peace.




Some labyrinth are round, some square in shape. I chose to do a simple square one.

Tangles: Paisley Boa and Lamar

I have recently purchased some Dylusion Ink Sprays, having been inspired by the work of Alice Hendon on her blog "Creators Leaf". I have a lot to learn in their use, but here are a few results which I have attempted to tangle, particularly for the Facebook group "Stacked and Tangled"

  8. I love your square labyrinth. I tried to use the same type of labyrinth using rounded lines and couldn't get it to work to my satisfaction, but your square one is perfect.
