Since I&#8217;m always searching new design trends I saw that people were taking up this new drawing style called zentangle, which is a little more detailed than simply doodling. So I got my pens and paper out, and began drawing this floral medley, not being too concerned with the end result, no preliminary sketching involved. Once I added some color it looked really cheerful.&#8221; We think so too, and you can dress up Doodle Garden with our&nbsp;tissue paper and coordinating ribbon.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Ribbon Flowers by Gina Tepper<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><em>Our friend Gina Tepper shows you in this step-by-step tutorial how to add pretty ribbon flowers to the bags or gift wrap for an extra special gift.
