Weekly Challenge #315: "Tangle Study = Molygon"

This week on Diva's website it's proposed to study The tangle "Molygon". It's an official tangle. You can see the steps out illustrated by Maria THOMAS here.

I'm agree with Laura it's a very interesting pattern. I colored it in black to bring out the white areas in negatives.

Then i wanted to add shadows to bring a 3D effect but I find that on this tile the magic of the shade does not work.

Thank you for your comments ! Have a good weekend !

Weekly Challenge #314: "UMT: Scallamps - by Sarah Uram CZT"

For those of you who are new, the first Monday of every month is a Use My Tangle Challenge, where the challenge of the week is to use a tangle created by one of us!

This month's UMT is Scallamps by Sarah Uram and you can see the step outs here.

It's every time tricky for me to choose the tangles for the background. But without a background I found my tile too empty. 

I add some shine too. What do you think about?

Thank you for your comments!
