It's Friday . . . TGIF! At Art 'n Soul today, TGIF this weeks means Play Day and the new Zentangle Club.

You don't want to miss out on this today between 11am and 3pm!
Hey all you Rosie’s Roadshow fans. January’s Art ‘n Soul Play Day -- today from 11:00 am to 3:00 pm. You will get to make a 2015 calendar featuring an assortment of Rosie’s Roadshow stamps specially selected by our staff for this event. We’ll have the stamps and tools available for you to stamp and color your calendars. We’ll have a limited number of kits available for sale at $5.75 that include paper, calendar decals and a calendar holder. Please join us for a fun afternoon.

And then between 4 and 6pm, Art 'n Soul's very first Zentangle™ Club meeting. It doesn't matter if you're a beginner or advanced in the art of the tangles. The purpose of the meeting is to inspire each other, learn new tips and techniques from one another, and share any tangled art that you'd like to show. There is no club fee, just your interest and passion for zentangle™!

Dianne made this project for Valentine's Day. She bought the decoration and then added the zentangle™ designs on the hearts.

Both Dianne and Pam are excited about today's events at Art 'n Soul and leading the fun! I 'wanna' be there, too!

And then Dianne experimented using 4 different types of sea salts to see if they gave different effects. The link to her blog posting is below.

I love the background design Bianca used on this card and the way she incorporated one of the new bird stamps from Magenta.

Excitement seems to be the word today. In our excitement for the Seahawks' quest for a repeat win this Sunday as the National Football Conference Champions and another trip to the Super Bowl, Art 'n Soul will be closed this Sunday because we know everyone is going to be watching the game!

Get your 12 'on' this Sunday afternoon!
