Hiya sistahs!
I don’t know about you but I can’t sit still when watching tv. My favorite show right now is X factor. It’s the type of show where I get depressed when it’s over 🙁
So what I do if I would like to take a break from cutting rubber ? I DOODLE.. I ZENTANGLE in my moleskine (we call it a “moley” in Bellaland).. It’s very relaxing..soothing..mind numbing.. Sometimes you need a mind numbing activity no?
So I decided once my doodles were done, to use my copics.. play around with combos.. I whipped out my Copic Swatch Book (WHICH I LOVE) and while I was watching my show I just coloured away and I was VEEEERRRRY clever and marked down the colors I was using. I was wanting to find colors I NEEDED to have in my journaling kit on the go.. and I like these that I chose.. if anyone sees a combo that they recommend that isn’t there, please leave me a comment! would love to try it out on my next doodle page!
here is my page
So anyone gonna doooooodle?
Mwah to da sistahs who watch X factor and will doodle with me
P.S. tomorrow’s theme for Bellarific Friday is FALL COLORS! Come on sistahs.. submit your entries!

Even the name sounds fun “doodle” …..see smiled didn’t ya!
Wicked doodle Em! You are a talented lady!
I love your posts! I have been into zentangling lately and it is very relaxing. Sometimes I find I’m paying more attention to my tangle than my show though :-). Also thanks to you I’ve been art journaling. Hopefully I’ll get around to submitting soon.
yes, I’ve taken up tangling but only doing black on white since it would take too much brain power to figure what colours to use. actually I prefer black and white. but I always have the option to go back and add colours. Did you know that Zentangles is yoga for the brain – supposed to relax, improve concentration and enhance memory.
Talk to me before you venture into WeightWatchers land – I have discovered something way better! I pwomise! (to use a Bella term)

this is GORJUS! WHERE HAVE I BEEN…i pop in and I missed TWO POSTS! okay…so i gotta branch out in my AJ a bit, my pages are all starting to look the same. and i’m with you, CANNOT sit still in front of a TV…the minute I do, I’m snoring.
I have just finished and posted on my blog,
http://paperpedaler.wordpress.com, an art journal doodling page. I only used a Copic multi-liner pen. doodling is great fun. Perhaps next time I will add a little color.
