We are so glad that you have joined us for our quarterly Virtual Crop!

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!

What if you do not have any of these collections?
No need to have any of these specific collections. Use what you have on hand and follow the sketch! :)
Gorgeous layouts! Very inspirational! I’ve gotta get busy. :-)
My question, also. Can we use other CM collections?
Absolutely! :)
I love it!!!! So simple and clean yet packs a “wow” effect.
Where are the cutting directions for the layout?
I think you need to wing it. No measurements. I’m staring at the samples thinking ok how am going tackling this. I love the Christmas LO. It hides the points so you dont have to cut an L shape of your paper, just strips. To give the look of points. I’m not good at measuring. I fly by the seat of my pants!
Me too. I also cut strips. A very versatile design. Love it.
Can someone give a quick tutorial on how to post our layout? Thanks.
can you clarify all of the requirements?
