January 2011 Project 12

I'm having issues uploading my pictures for Project 12.  I will upload the pics as soon as I can.

I've been having PC issues and today, I finally got my pics to uploaded.  Yay!  Anyway, onto my first Project 12 layout.  My dear friend Gaby kind of challenged me to participate in this project .  You can read more on their site: complete a page or two recapping the month's events.  At the end of the year you'll have a completed "year book".  Easy enough! Well, with the exception of this month having computer problems.  Here is my 2 page layout using the sketch provided on their blog.

The flower paper is from Colorbok, it was a black and white, but I colored the flowers with Creative Memories markers, nothing fancy like Copics, but it works for me.  The orange glitter paper is DCWV and the pattern paper is MAMBI.   The month block was stamped with The Stamps of Life's Calender2Build stamp set, I'll be using this stamp set on my Project 12 pages. :)  

My brother Alfonso celebrated his 50th birthday and my sister Letty, surprised him and all of us with a mariachi band.  The title "Cincuenta" translates to "Fifty".  What's up with the puppet?  That's my lil' brother Robert with his puppet, April.  He wasn't giving a show, but dancing with it!  LOL!!  I have a very "eccentric" family, myself excluded. HA!
