PCW DT Challenge - All About Parents


Happy Tuesday and welcome to another challenge 
with the design team of Paper Crafting World  
Today's challenge is
 "All About Parents"
to honor them, welcome new parents, in memory of our parent(s)

I am honoring my 
Abuela (grandmother) Rosa
but I call her mama

She has endured much in her life
Once a vibrant, vocal and full of life
Fragile, quiet, and unsure of life

She took care of me
It's my turn to take care of her
going through dementia
starting not to remember who I am.....

Here she is holding my 
youngest daughter Kymora
4th Generation

Coloring Medium Toned Skin and Dark Hair with Copics

Hello Everyone,
Welcome to my tutorial for
Color Me Copic Club
Today I will be showing what I use for
Medium Toned Skin and Dark Hair

that could be for Hispanic, Asian, or African-American....

As we are an
AMERICAN MELTING POT

I myself am Mexican and Afro American
yet when you see me at times I could pass
for Philippino, Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Dominican,
Brazilian and the list go on and on

My family is a small melting pot as
we have
Mexican, African-American, Japanese, Polish, and
Puerto Rican in our blood for now lol

People would ask me what you consider yourself
either Mexican or African-American
which when I was young did not know how to answer that

I was raised by my Spanish speaking Abuela (grandma/nana)
this mind you REFUSED to speak English.
She is now 87 and still refuses to speak the language
Oh don't let her fool ya - she completely understands everything you say

BTW - I am proud to speak both languages fluently - Props to Abuela.

Nevertheless we are the color of the rainbow
so who is to say what is right or wrong way to color a complexion
