>! [English version] Greetings community!
I had been looking forward to this moment for many months.... As you well know, my sticker printer had stopped working, I know something about electronics by my brother, who was an electronics technician, I studied Micros maintenance and computer maintenance and assembly, branches of computer science that I had to take out later, something I know, I defend myself, I did not want to take my equipment to service, because I have had very bad experiences with printers in technical service, These have not been honest, they change the parts and that has been in different places, total that my printers were more useless than I took it, for a moment I had given up and thought about buying a new printer, however I do not have the resources and are somewhat expensive, my printer was new and it's a real shame. I could not disassemble it because I did not have the appropriate screwdrivers, however years ago I had bought a set of screwdrivers of those that you change the tip and I searched among them until I found the right one, there it was. Well, I proceeded to disassemble it, maybe it was a fuse in the power supply, something had to do with it. When I disassembled it I could only see that a flex was loose and I placed it where it was, I turned on the printer and it worked, it is a shame and an unnecessary waste of money, to have taken my printer to a technician out that nonsense charged me dearly and at the risk that he changed the heads for damaged ones or lied to me saying that it was a total loss, I thank God for the knowledge and so far the printer is working fine.
I went back to my Scrapbook themes and my creative diary, capturing moments, I wanted something that would transmit me a lot of peace and had a lot of symbolism for me:
Butterflies: Hope. Roses: Love and delicacy. Girls in front of the mirror turning their backs on problems and negativities. The vines that grow as dreams grow. The notes in pink: They speak of poetry, of love. The sheet music: My connection with music is getting stronger and stronger.
Now I leave you with the step by step, I hope you like it, the creative process.

Before gluing the pieces together, I prefer to make a sketch of what will be the final work, this saves me a lot of time.
I had a small piece of score paper and ripped it into the shape of a heart.
After finishing the sketch, I prepare my instrument, a very sharp tweezers, which helps me to take small pieces, not to mess up the work, not to get the stickers on my fingers and not to get my hands full of glue.
Once the sketch is finished and my tool is ready, I start to peel off the stickers.

[Esp] Ir despegando las pegatinas es un proceso satisfactorio. Ir pegando las pegatinas al cuaderno también es algo que disfruto mucho, puedo relajarme, concentrarme, pensar en cosas positivas y bonitas. Me gusta colocar un espacio de trabajo ordenado y lo más presentable que puedo para el disfrute del espectador. Tengo una tela de peluche sobre la mesa que al tacto es muy estimulante, en la cámara se ve muy hermoso. Mientras tanto... Voy pegando los stickers respetando la idea del boceto. >! [English version] Peeling off the stickers is a satisfying process. Sticking the stickers on the notebook is also something I enjoy very much, I can relax, concentrate, think about positive and beautiful things. I like to set up a tidy workspace as presentable as I can for the viewer's enjoyment. I have a plush fabric on the table which to the touch is very stimulating, on camera it looks very beautiful. In the meantime... I'm sticking the stickers respecting the idea of the sketch.

[Esp] Despegar la pieza de la pegatina de corazón fue la parte que más me gustó, tuve mis dudas que al recortarla de forma rústica con las manos quedaría la forma perfecta, estuvo logrado. Las chicas mirándose al espejo, admirando su belleza y femineidad me recuerdan el amor propio y el hecho que estén de espaldas, me recuerda que nada debería distraerme, es como darle la espalda a la negatividad y los problemas. Las últimas piezas pegadas ya están mostrando bien la idea del proyecto. >! [English version] Peeling off the heart sticker piece was the part I liked the most, I had my doubts that cutting it out in a rustic way with my hands would be the perfect shape, it was successful. The girls looking at themselves in the mirror, admiring their beauty and femininity reminds me of self-love and the fact that they have their backs turned reminds me that nothing should distract me, it's like turning my back on negativity and problems. The last glued pieces are already showing well the idea of the project.

[Esp] La mariposa grande se convirtió en el foco de atención del diseño, luego de pegar el resto de ellas, procedí a realizar enredaderas con el marcador negro, a la misma le coloqué holas y puntos, solo como decoración. También escribí la palabra: Love You. Esta práctica me conecta con mi mente, me ayuda en la destreza, es un buen ejercicio de creatividad y es un momento de paz y confort del cual disfruto mucho. Espero les guste mucho las paginas que he llenado de mi diario hoy, ¿Qué es lo especial para recordar? Qué como dice mi terapeuta, yo debo mantenerme en paz y serena, trabajar por mis sueños y hacer lo que me haga feliz. Estas cosas sin duda alejan la depresión. Los amo, gracias por estar y compartir conmigo. >! [English version] The big butterfly became the focal point of the design, after gluing the rest of them, I proceeded to make vines with the black marker, I placed holas and dots on it, just as decoration. I also wrote the word: Love You. This practice connects me with my mind, it helps me in my dexterity, it is a good exercise of creativity and it is a moment of peace and comfort that I enjoy. I hope you like the pages I have filled in my journal today, what is special to remember? That as my therapist says, I must keep myself in peace and serenity, work for my dreams and do what makes me happy. These things certainly keep depression away. I love you, thank you for being and sharing with me.
