Start Somewhere {A Tag Creation}

Hello crafty friends and visitors! How are your doing today? I am up and about now that I have gotten back my best buddy; my netbook precisely. Like I mentioned on my Instagram dated January 12, my best buddy didn't co-operate after I turn it on. It was cold and so was I {eeeksss}. Anyone who works from home definitely can relate to this situation. My most three essential equipment are my netbook, camera and tablet...oh, and tripod too. For all work purpose, I rely on my netbook. Basically I use tablet for IG and communication while on board. So when my best buddy fail to perform, somehow I was positive it must be the adapter's fault. Rest assured, it was after the pc guy had it checked. I must say that was the best day of my life this January! Thank God I can still use my netbook after purchasing a new replacement adapter even though it left a big hole in my wallet, sigh.

That's the reason I've been completely silence from blogging since my last post. Typing blog post on the tablet is my least favorite thing to do because it strains my eyes plus going back and forth for links to copy and paste isn't cool and eat plenty of time. I was not able to use my husband's laptop because he was outstation the week my netbook was under the weather...pfftt. So yeah, you bet I am a happy camper to be able to use my netbook right this moment. God is great! Life is back to good {smile}.

Enough blab. Let me now take you to this post that is long overdue. I created a simple mixed media tag as part of my DT work for Digistamps4Joy. Presently, the monthly challenge is running until the end of this month. As always the theme is Anything Goes and our dear Sami is hosting the challenge so she has a theme for you that is Your Favorite Color Combination as optional twist. 

 I used Mandala 3 that you can get at DS4J shop. I printed the image to the size I want and cut it out. 

 The quote is what I figured to be perfect for this month. After the long holidays in December plus the mishap of my netbook, it sure takes a long time to get back to making art work. So I just got to start somewhere, right?

 I just played with watercolors in the background after putting on a light coat of gesso and texture paste was used to form some diamond patterns through a stencil for additional texture. I didn't tie a string yet because I need to get that one I saw at the store. Problem is I didn't buy it the last time I went so maybe tomorrow I will go there again and grab it! I have other strings and ribbons so to speak but well, if you are like me you will understand the feeling, lol.

That is all for now. I look forward to see you at DS4J Mr. Linky before 31st January. Join us and stand a chance to win images from Margy.

Until then. Have a great day and thank you for dropping by.

Hugs and smiles,
