Guest DT- Rebecca Altamirano

Pin It

I am so excited to announce my first Guest Designer here at Connie Can Crop...

Rebecca Altamirano

from Stamp and Scrap Studio

She has created a wonderful project for us today featuring bling to go along with the "Anything Goes" monthly Challenge.

Hi Everyone, My name is Rebecca from Stamp and Scrap Studio and I am so happy to be a guest designing for you on Connie Can Crop. For the Anything Goes Challenge I decided to create a St. Patrick's Day layout. I used the Miss Kate Cuttables St. Patrick's file to create the title and the Rainbow and pot of gold. The cardstock used is all from Close To My heart, I used topiary, honey, whisper, and Black. For the patterned paper I used a Green polka dot in the Zoe paper pack from Close To My Heart.

I love using the SVG files from Miss Kate Cuttables

Thanks for stopping by to check out my post

BE sure to stop by Rebecca's Blog and leave her some love! She was an awesome Guest DT!!

Interested in being a guest DT on my blog? Send me an email or message with a photo of your favorite project and let me know!

Question of the Week

Pin It

Happy Leap Day!!

Remember.. I want you to answer the question in the comment section too!

AND

if you have a question to ask for an upcoming week add that in the comments too, if you ask a question and I use it you will win a prize!!

This week's question comes from me...This week I am turning another year older! What would you like to do to celebrate your next birthday?

Connie- I will be at a board meeting on my birthday. And the more I think about it the more I am bummed out! All because they couldn't have the meeting without me. Not that birthdays are ever a big thing in my house. Not mine anyways. I would love to have a big party and invite everyone I know! But that will probably never happen. Instead I am taking off the following weekend for a scrap retreat with the girls. Probably my favorite way to celebrate!

Daphne- I will be 50 this year and for my birthday I want to spend the day at Disney World with the love of my life and then spend the weekend with all my kids. Being surrounded by my family is what makes me happy.

Angela- I would love a day off from kid activities! The last few years have been celebrated either on some type of field or at the kids school for something or other. I just want a day to veg on the couch.
wink emoticon

Veronica- I completely agree with Angela. A day for myself would be nice. No driving 100 miles around, not serving people, not answering my phone or texts... uhmmm nice

Kim- I wouldn't mind a day crafting...when everything works exactly as I want it to...now that's a real fantasy!

ok, It's your turn to answer!!

Hello, this is Veronica from Vicky's Scrapping Passion, and

This sketch is Swirlydoos blog, This company has a monthly very complete scrapbooking/ papercarfting kit.

I just joined last month and got the Ballad kit, listed in this post. I got completely blown out of my mind with so many goodies, amazing. I also got the mixed media add-on kit, and I am loving it. Totally worth the high prize.
