The Diva Challenge gave us the option of doing a white on black tile or tangling a found object. Since I don't have a black tile or any black paper, I opted for tangling a found object. (learn more at http://iamthedivaczt.blogspot.com/)
First I tried doing the side of my tissue box -- it had beautiful colored stripes and I started placing quib on it, going in front of and behind the stripes, and of course crossing over it self. Not only did it start looking confusing, my ink started smearing every time I touched it. So I scrapped that idea.
Then I noticed my Renuzit air freshner. It is white with a couple of swirls embossed on it.

It's a slick plastic surface, but the embossed swirl sections have a texture. But I didn't want to ruin my pen nibs on it, so I opted for some gold metallic paint.
