Monotangle Challenge - Crescent Moon

Laura, aka Diva, challenged us this week to create a mono tangle (creating a tile or ZIA using just one tangle pattern but using different variations) using Crescent Moon. I was so happy to have Monday off so I could get a jump on this. I just love the surprise I get when I tangle away and the results are different than what I had expected. I decided to quit while I was ahead:
I'm not sure what it is that I like so much, perhaps the openness of it.

Maybe I will also get to the zendala dare taken care of this week!

Enjoy the week, everyone.

UPDATE! I did get the zendala dare created tonight. I was trying to keep with the organic/mother nature theme:

    The crescent moon tile is simply delightful! And I love the soft, feathery effect of your zendala.

    Both are lovely! I haven't gotten to the last two Zendala Dares yet, but I plan to. I like the balance of the first tile and the detailed organic look of the second one. Great job!

    I think you first one is really cool and you knew just when to quit. Great Zendala also!

    Janee, love your monotangle, it's so festive with wonderful flow - just right. Your Zendala is great and the Verdigogh star is fabulous. The whole organic, nature thing is workin' for ya!

    I love your zentangle challenge. I really like the open space. It's so hard to know when to quit but yours is just right!

    Great tangle. I love the way you have used open spaces. Very bold. I myself find it very hard not to fill in open spaces, so seeing others use it as a designelement is great. Thanks for sharing.
