Truffle Diva Challenge & Tackle It Tuesday tiles

Hello from hot-and-sticky Massachusetts! It's summer in New England so that means it will be 90 degrees with 90% humidity for 3 days, then it changes. People love to talk about weather. 

I'm sitting on the floor in the living room, partly watching TED Talks, with my hubby. Ever watch those? I highly suggest checking them out. So inspiring on so many different topics. 

I'm inspired by newness and inspiration. I loved exploring the new tangle called Truffle by Caroline Broady, CZT, a young woman who was the guest blogger for the Diva's challenge this week.

I tried it out and incorporated some variations of Truffle in this tile below. This tile is ALSO my entry for Cheryl's Tackle It Tuesday (for the letter T). The tangle, Sez, is in this tile too... so it's not entirely a T-tangle-only tile, but I beg forgiveness.


Speaking of Tackle It Tuesday, here's my tile for the week of S tangles with Sprinkle, Stricles, Scarabou, Shattuck and Swarm.


Peace!
