Zentangle Challenge #108

Last week I was playing around with some simple stripes of  " geometric border" patterns and wondered what kind of a mandala / medallion I could create if I used these border pattern in a set of concentric circles. So I played with this idea and created the larger circular medallion using the same patterns in the square . Can you see the seven patterns in the larger medallion ?

I had kept it aside because I could not decide what tangle I could use in the background to highlight the medallion. Then  I saw Diva's challenge, last night , so  I thought that "WhyZ" tangle would probably be a great background.

So here is my response to this weeks challenge.
