Welcome & Challenge 1: Virtual Crop

Welcome Everyone!

We are so glad that you have joined us for our Fall/September Virtual Crop!

If you haven’t already, you will want to join us right on our Facebook Event Page!

If you have not RSVP’d saying that you will join us — you can do so now!

Here are some tips to best prepare for this event:

Gather some photos and scrappy supplies, get comfy clothes (or jammies) on, and crop the afternoon and evening today,  and tomorrow- away with us from the comfort of your home.

We will host several challenges throughout the next 24 hours from our Facebook Event Page to inspire you (all Central Time): 3pm, 5pm, and 7pm; and tomorrow at 9am, 11am, and 1pm.

All of our challenges for this Virtual Crop will include a sketch.  Make sure your project meets all of the requirements to qualify for the individual challenge prizes.  Our objective is to HAVE FUN while creating meaningful scrapbook projects–hopefully sharing a tip or two along the way.

There will be one Grand Prize that will be given away at 5pm CST on Saturday, September 16th, 2017.  All you need to do to qualify for the GRAND PRIZE is to submit one challenge/project to the FB Event Page over the next 24 hours.  The winner will be chosen randomly.  Wouldn’t you love to win this?

So, let’s get started with our first challenge.

Digital Spread created by Beth Thomander- Advisor;  Nova Scotia, Canada

Bookworm

Fonts:  Chalk line outline, Chalk hand lettering shaded

Tips to create this digital spread:

• To make the banners cut a triangle shape from the end or ends. If you want each banner to look different you can change the shape of your triangle and cut each banner individually or you can copy and paste to make them all the same.  Fill each one with a different paper.
• To make the banner at the top cut an additional rectangle, layer over banner, add a shadow, flatten and add another shadow on the opposite edge.  This give the illusion that there is a fold in the banner.
