The letter W... my goodness... yesterday was my Mother's Letter... and today is my Father's letter... (also my little brother's) Their name is Warren... My Dad passed in 2000... and I know that if he had been alive at that time would have really had a very severe problem with the 9/11 bombing of NYC... My Dad loved NYC... he worked there in the Chrysler building for over 50 years... very devoted to Texaco... Amoseas and Caltex...
So Dad, These letters are for YOU... My Dad always loved Gladiolas and would plant many bulbs every year of his life... and then wait to see them bloom... sometimes he became very frustrated, as the squirrels where we lived would dig them up... and I guess eat them.... poor Dad... he really had a love/hate life with the Squirrels...
He also had one that would come and eat out of his hand...
I had fun doing these W's...
I experimented with them in different ways... as you can see...
I decided that I should commit to doing the Creative EveryDay challenge… and so I signed up and will be doing a piece every day for a
month… nothing really different for me… as art is my life in so many ways… but
I will try and share more with you each day…
So today is the last day... and I have not missed one day... I totally enjoyed this challenge...
Thanks...
Hope that you create each day in your life... it creates peace and harmony in my life... that is for sure...
Thanks for stopping by for a visit... see you tomorrow...
Love, Light and Peace...Bonnie

The Letter V
My Mother's name is Vivian... so the letter V has always been a strong letter in my life...
I have a secret to tell you... My legal name is Vivian too... but I have never used it as a first name... I have never related to the name... as I have always been called Bonnie... from the minute I was born...
So I had to make some pretty V's...
This one I had a lot of free fun with... as you can see... just fooling around and adding things where I wanted them...
And then I had to add a vine around the one below.... just love doing whatever I need to do with each letter... no rules... just doing...

Thanks for stopping by for a visit and I do hope that you are creating as much as possible each and every day in some way too... it is a very healthy way to live...

The Letter U
The letter U A very unused letter a lot of time... but really a GREAT letter... so many words could not be understood if we didn't have it.. .
WE would get wet in the rain without an umbrella... right??? and the unicorn is a favorite animal of mine... one that cleans up the water ways in the world... we just never really get a glimpse of the unicorn... but a very pretty animal to say the least...
As you will see there are three letters today... as I have also finished the third set of the alphabet... and all the letters you will be able to see on a side blog at the end of the alphabet... Z and then another whole set... I love doing letters... and also strings... I think I just love to tangle... what do you think...
This one has no background... but I had to share it... love the unyun tangle that is in the center...
I also have decided that I should commit to doing the Creative EveryDay challenge… and so I signed up and will be doing a piece every day for a month… nothing really different for me… as art is my life in so many ways… but I will try and share more with you each day…
These sunflowers grow all year long... LOL... love art... as you can create what ever season you need to... and also the Zingers...
Hope you have a GREAT day... and that you enjoy creating something too...

Happy Monday... Happy Everyday of the year....
Today I have a few different things on my blog page... Below there is an announcement from the Altered Alice Group that I LOVE... So please read and hopefully you will be able to add something to the site with GRATITUDE.... and also win some GREAT stamps... $30.00 worth... WOW.... what a wonderful selection of Stamps that Nature's Blessings has... so take a look at that...
Also.... only 5 more days until the month of November is over... and Creative Everyday of 2012 is over... I have been able to do a piece of art each and everyday so far... and see no reason why I will not be able to finish this wonderful gift of art for the rest of the month... I have totally enjoyed doing this challenge and hope to continue doing this until January 1... byt that time I will have over 1000 entries on my blog... wow... I guess I am a blogger... LOL...
Today is also MONDAY... so I am the Diva also has a challenge of creating a TIA or something without using a String.... not a problem at all... in fact I love to do that the best of all... using a string is what has been a challenge for me... I love the freedom of creating all that I can on a piece of paper... and then also some with very little on that same size paper...
I have done a few this week... and here they are...
I use to make a ton of cards each and every day... and still have a lot of Martha Stewart punched papers around... and wanted to use them up... so they became perfect spaces to Tangle in...
I love this SOCC tangle... and it is relaxing to do...
I have shown so many people how to do this one... and it has gotten a few people hooked on tangling... they love it...
This one was just waiting to come out on the paper... not really tangling... but it is art... and it will go onto a card for a friend... she loves yellows and greens...
Have you ever tried to cut out a tangle???
Well I am working on a calendar that I will share with you in January... and I but this out to put onto a page!!! I think I have lost it... or maybe I never had it to loose... but I really wanted to have this in a space over an area where I had a huge Mi2... it really is nice there... can hardly wait to share this fun calendar with ya'll.... it is a little of this and that... but some really fun things on it... wait until you see it...
Okay... .so I got a little carried away with the challenge today... but that is just me, being ME...
This tangle... SOCC I LOVE... can you tell that yet??? I created a bud with it...
And then a star with Zingers coming out...
Mi2 is an all time favorite for me... and so I laced it into a space... I did start with the Mi2 first... then added the border around it...
Okay... another SOCC... with some Zingers... and some buds...
Laura had mentioned starting in the center... I had never done that... so I had to try...
And some Zingers... slipping thru a slit in the paper...
With roots... they need to grow don't they....????
So these are my Challenges that are free style today...
Hope that you have a wonderful day... and that you will create something with Gratitude and enter it into the Alice Challenge... you might be the winner... of $30 of free shopping... wow... what a nice gift...
So check that out below... and enter...
See you tomorrow... Love, Light and Peace...Bonnie
CHAPTER 21: Gratitude Challenge EXTENDED
Posted by Lynne Phelps
Between the holiday weekend and
technical difficulties, I am not going to be able to post the winner and
honorable mentions until Thursday, so I have reopened the challenge! Get
busy and submit some projects by 5 p.m. EST on Thursday, November 29 and
I'll post the winners on Friday, Nov. 30.
The theme is GRATITUDE, but the project can be anything as long as you explain the connection in your blog post. Of course thank-you cards are an obvious project, and you know you are going to need a lot of them after the holidays, so why not create a stash? Who wouldn't like a little Wonderland thank-you card in the mail?
WHY should you get busy? Because a FABULOUS prize is up for grabs! One randomly-chosen winner will receive a $30 shopping spree from Nature's Blessings. They have all the illustrations from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland AND Through the Looking Glass. But did you know they have LOTS of other amazing stamps, in unmounted, cling, or wood mount? (The price shown on the listings page is for wood mount, so the cling and unmounted are much less.)
Have you seen all the Nature's Blessings rubber stamp categories?
So get busy, because you know you need some of these great stamps! Multiple entries are encouraged, but each project must be on a separate post. As always, all projects are welcome but those that feature Wonderland will have two chances per entry instead of one. (Note: if you are viewing this post in a reader or email, please click on the title of the post to go to the blog to see the entries or submit a project.)

Have you seen all the Nature's Blessings rubber stamp categories?
- Gorgeous Garlands just in time for an Old-Fashioned Christmas
- Check out the crazy monsters
- Fun Fish (number 5 is my favorite!)
- Beautiful still life images for coloring
- Charming vintage children
- Elegant vintage fashion illustrations (the heirloom children's garments are my favorites)
- Nursery Rhyme Time has whimsical fairies, Mother Goose, Little Red Riding Hood, the Three Bears and other fairy tales!
- The Odds and Ends category contains fantastic scientific gadgets from the past and some great skeletons and many other great images!
- And more!

String 24 on the go...
Well today I have done the String #24... I did a couple to show you how different they look when done in different directions... sometimes you wouldn't realize that it is the same at all..
The band is going across this one... and I love the little charm dangling off the band...
I have also tried a few new tangles on this one... I have to try new ones all the time... as that is the way I learn...
This one the band is going the other way... and I have a coil running up it... and then also have other things going all which ways... Love it... a fun tile... these are both using String 24 from Tangle Patterns.com and thanks so very for everyone that creates them... I totally love them all... and have used them quite a few times...
I love doing Purk too... the tangle with all the little pearls in it... so much fun in all ways... what a fun form of art...
Have you tangled today???
Have you created anything today???

Thanks for stopping in here for a visit... someday maybe we will be able to stop into sites for a cup of tea... LOL.. wouldnt' that be fun.. I wish by that time I at least have something a little bit better than dial up... and can visit other sites without downloading them for over an hour... LOL.. (not funny... at all. ) Thanks for leaving all the great comments... and I know that if I visited all the sites I would spend a lot of time writing about all the wonderful views I would see... I do have friends that take the time to download the pretties, and reduce them and send them onto me... so I do get to see some... and what pretties they are...
Thanks so very much for all that goes on...
Love, Light and Peace...Bonnie

Strings 26 and 27 plus a little more
Today being Saturday I will be doing the Zendala challenge later... but for now.... here are a few Strings that I just completed... I love doing these... keeps me busy when my hands are fiddling... LOL...
Linda at www.tanglepatterns.com always has a wonderful gift each and every day for all us tanglers... and these two needed to be done for me to keep up to date on my strings... I have them all done... and refer to them at different times... love the way some come together...
Some always turn out to be alittle bit different than you expect them too...
This morning Erin from the BRIGHT OWL
gave us a great mandala.. but all I kept on seeing was daffodils... I guess I am ready for spring time... LOL... I really don't like this chilly weather... and we have been having some really nice warm days... but this morning it is a little bit too chilly for my bones... so come on Spring time....
I am sure I will play with this a little more off and on today... so I might add another one of these really fun zendalas... Thanks Erin for the challenges... and enjoy all those turkey dinners... they all sound delicious... but I do love to make a really great Cranberry relish that is to die for... I make it by the gallons... as everyone goes crazy for it... cranberries, walnuts, orange and raisins... a little agave and they are all put into the food processor and then each one added separately to a nice large bowl and mixed and allowed to sit to gell together.... wow... a really great treat around here... of course I only use organic products... and I love the taste of it after 4 days of gelling together.... wow.. Love it...
Enjoy and create everyday.... something that excites you...
And between now and then have a wonderful day... and enjoy creating...
This is Day 24 of the Create every day challenge and I have not missed a day yet... I am going for the gold... love these challenges...
Love, Light and Peace...Bonnie

The Letter S
The Letter S... Santa is coming soon... at least around here he will be coming .... down the ole chimney... every year he always brings us something... and generally he is a jolly old man... LOL..
So what does S stand for in your LIFE... ??? Let me know... maybe I can use it on my memory board...
Each letter I have done, I have tried to do them a little bit differently so that they stand alone... this one came out entirely different than the others one... and the letter itself is almost hidden... but I think you can find it... another series of tangles... find the hidden letters... oh my... maybe I will have to start that soon...
I used all S tangles on this one too...
But then I let go and just have fun with the letter... and done in another entirely different way...
Even with a Slight Slant on the paper... it has sheer elegance in the letters... to me tangling is like life... very rarely do you do something the first time perfect or the way you want it to be... and so finally after many many tries I got the tangle in the center of the bottom half of the letter done the way I love... YEAH for me... I celebrate successes like this for me... Do you love what you create??? Celebrate it with love and real good feelings.. .

The Letter R and Happy Thanksgiving
Happy Thanksgiving.. and also Happy R today too....
I have so many wonderful people in my life with the Letter R... My grandson... my son in law, friends, and relatives... so this is special letter...
Reality is always a special thing too.. LOL... not that we like it... but hey... someone has to live it... RIGHT???
Every Capital letter has to have a lower case letter too... right... so I did a lower case r here...
I had to add that little snail peeking over the side... I love snails and find them so fun...
True Story.. the other day my husband came in and was bewildered... as the mice had eaten thru the wires on a roto tiller... and he went to move it... and a snail was crawling upside down on a piece of string... they are funny little critters....
I wish I could find my friend from College that got me hooked on snails... but no one seems to know where she is... if you are out there Bucky... get in touch with us... love to hear from you...

The Letter Q
The Letter Q... not often used... but part of the whole... and so we can't forget it...
I only used a couple of tangles to create this... but they were tangles that began with a Q... what else...
A Regal Q... I love making quilts.. so the background on this one is one that I have often used too for a few quilts... so it was an easy tangle for me to use...
So I had to do another Q...
Why??? Who knows... just love tangling... I guess... what do you think... !!!
Anyway.. here it is...
I love adding things once I have the main
Tangling done... so that is what happened here... lots of tangling and fun... A little here and there... and finally filled all up... with no room left to add anything else..

Enjoy your day... and sit under a quilt and get all cozy...

The Letter P
The Letter P
This letter stands for one of my names... Prince... as it was my middle name prior to getting married... It is a family name and I was very close to my Great Grandparents that last name was Prince... so it is a special name of mine.

Are there things that a letter reminds you of in your past life... there are so many and I have to say that I am really having fun making this Alphabet Soup Book... way fun..
So this Letter P... I had to add a pumpkin... as it is fall and Pumpkins are all around us... I love pumpkin in my diet... and love baked pumpkin that is stuffed with a nice rice pilaf... and also pumpkin muffins... and I can remember when I use to make Pumpkin cookies with chocolate chips for our kids... they always loved these at Thanksgiving time... a wonderful treat... maybe I should make some more... I love to cook.. .did you know that??? Love to create recipes too... check out my Good Food blog... it is down on the right hand side ... and click on the picture and it will take you there... have fun..

World Peace
Saturday is like a blurrrrrrrr.... we were out all day long... BUT I did take a pen and paper and I created this for Creative Every Day, 2012... but last night when we got home... it was way to late to blog... and I was poppppppped... and flopped into bed and off to the land of Nod...
But I did have on my mind that we all need to think and Pray for WORLD PEACE.... and try to be loving to all our neighbors and friends... it is very important that we live on this planet in PEACE.....
So my Zen Tangling is all about that...
WE so need to have all unloving thoughts stopped all around the globe... NOW... not in a few weeks.. NOW...
Think and create WORLD PEACE in your mind... tell others to do the same... and maybe the energy will spread all over the WORLD...
Well... today is another day... and I must get back to creating more and more on so many levels... but will be thinking of PEACE all day in all levels... hope you will do the same... have a PEACEFUL day...
Thanks for stopping by and hope you will come back tomorrow...
Love, Light and PEACE.... Bonnie

More Strings
More Strings of fun...
Tangling is always fun with STRINGS...
When I start to play with strings I most likely am going to try new tangles that I have never done prior... and that is what I have done here...
I added quite a few that are new to me... and this helps me learn more... as doing a tangle once really doesn't make it into the inner core of your brain... but using it often will. So I try and do each new tangle quite a few times... then it is part of my knowledge of tangles... and will freely use it at other times..
Now sometimes I have to add things like words, and also veggies, or little insects, or even a little flower... but these are all fun to add and do give me a little bit of a variety and also I love using them... So here are my veggies and I have to say that it is one of my very favorite tangles... oh yes... tomorrow is another day.. and they will be my favorite yet ... LOL...
But you get the idea... Fun is FUN...
Well... another day another tangle...

I decided that I should commit to doing the Creative EveryDay challenge… and so I signed up and will be doing a piece every day for a
month… nothing really different for me… as art is my life in so many ways… but
I will try and share more with you each day…
Another commitment is to do the Zendala Challenge every week... Yikes... I missed it yesterday when it was announced... but have no fear... Sunday is just a day late... but never too late to do a Zendala...
So... Erin from the Bright Owl.... here is what I created with it...
I had to create more PEACE... as it is so on my mind these days... and also needed the rainbow of energy to create the colors and send the message to the UNIVERSE...

I really didn't like this Mandala when I started with it... but in the end... I really have to say that I totally enjoyed creating in it... adding lines here and there... and also flowers... which you know I have to add... and a few leaves...
Think PEACE all the time... create it in all that you do...
Think PEACE all the time... create it in all that you do...
I thank you for stopping by today for a visit... and hope that you will come back tomorrow... as it is DIVA day....
Enjoy your day today... and play a little bit... create art of any kind..
Love, Light and Peace...Bonnie

The Letter O
Oooooooooo….
O was a tough one… I wanted to start to do all my letters
with the tangles that started with that letter… O just had a few that I really
loved… so I did them and let it go at that…
The O’s in my life were like that too… When I was growing
up, my great grandparents lived on a small island along the coast of
Maine…Orr’s Island… and I loved it
there… we had a summer house there… and I spent as much time there as we
could… love it with all my cousins, and second
cousins, etc… really didn’t know the
difference then… and really still don’t… they are all cousins… and we spent
many happy days on the shore, collecting rocks, small shells and live crabs,
and popping seaweed, and skipping rocks… oh my goodness a rock skippers
paradise… all the beaches are ROCKS…
nothing but rocks… so you could
stand there all day and skip… and not really have to walk too far to look for a
skipping rock… that is for sure…
I had so very much fun doing the tangle all around the O... I love the way it looks too... what a fun art...
I decided that I should commit to doing the Creative EveryDay challenge… and so I signed up and will be doing a piece every day for a
month… nothing really different for me… as art is my life in so many ways… but
I will try and share more with you each day…
Hope you have a Okay day… and enjoy some Okra… and look for
some oak trees… they are in full color
here… hope that you can see some pretty ones… thanks for stopping by… and see
you tomorrow…
Love, Light and Peace....Bonnie

The Letter N
N… Never never land… a place I always wanted to go to ever
since I read Peter Pan… and then even more after seeing the play on
Broadway… Loved the thought of never
growing old… and always being a child…
still do…
But N also stands for New
York City… I use to work there… and loved the nuisance
of the city that never sleeps… and it
truly doesn’t…. My roommate from college and I had a flat there for a few
months… and let me tell you… I hardly ever slept… I mean really sleep… like the REM stuff… no way… anyway… it was a real notch on the belt and I
did love it… but was glad when I finally got out of the city… too much for me… and to think of me doing
that now… LOL… no way… I love my peace
and quiet… love my mountains…
So My N…. is reminder
of the past in so many ways…
Hope that you enjoy your Nice Day… and now don’t be naughty…
be nice and enjoy everything that you create…

The Letter M
The letter M.... my last name is one that I think of right off the top of my head... but then I have lived in two places that begin with M.... and then I think of a few cars I have had that begin with an M... one being a Malibu... that I sure do wish I had now... a 1967 RED Malibu... and with a custom engine too... way too much power for me... as I had a heavy foot and got 12 points the first month I had it for speeding.... oh dear me... an M....
I also think of my Mom.. .she is going to be 93 in a few days...and she is still walking, talking, doing almost all the things that she has always done... she does have Macular... and is unable to see from one eye... but still looking at life thru the other one... and going shopping, and playing scrabble, and forgetting almost everything that she does... but is enjoying life... so for that I am very thankful...
This is one of the first letters I did... so it is entirely different than the others... but hey... you have to start some where... right???
Then I did this one... but the whole thing was for a journal pocket... which I have below... but I love it... a favorite one...
Anyway... these are my Letter M's...
Have a MERRY, Mystical, Musical day... and please let me know what M's are powerful in your life...
My art has to be a daily occurring event as it keeps me as balanced as possible... and I find that the relaxing of tangling is just what I have been looking for in my life for years... so if you don't tangle now... take a look at tangling patterns here and get started on a fun life time addiction of tangling... it is one of the most relaxing things I have ever done... and find that once you settle your mind it is so very much fun and brings peace and harmony to the inner soul...
Here is another M...
Thanks for visiting today...

The Letter L
The Letter L .... L is for so very many things in my life.. a Very favorite word... LOVE... as I love so very many things all around me...
I have lived in a few places that begin with the letter L... and also have tons of stories to share... but will share one with you that still makes me sort of sad......
We had garden center at one time... and my hubby had bought way too many lilac trees... so I told him to bring them home, as I would LOVE to have them... he did.. but that week-end was the week-end that the pond was going to be dredged up... and all the soil went on top of the lilac trees... all 20 of them... gone in a flash.. the men wouldn't stop putting the soil on top... they had told us not to put things there... and we did... our loss... no lilac trees... such a shame... the soil was on the trees too long... and so they turned into the soil again... never to be grown again...
L.... a fun letter... what L's do you have in your life... ???
Share a few with us...
Thanks for stopping by for a visit... Have a LOVINGLY LONG and delightful day... in all ways...
Love, Light and Peace... Bonnie
