Halloween Pop-up Challenge: #ScrappySpirit

Grab your candy corn and costumes, potions and pumpkins, and get ready for a frightfully delightful time — a new pop-up challenge is flying in like a bat on Halloween night! Boo-ya! All you have to do is make a monster of a marvel — a Halloween-themed project or a project with a Halloween-esque detail (more on that below!) — to be entered for a chance to win! So show us your bag of tricks and treats!

And while you’re at it, don’t forget to creep toward the spirited and scrappy 8×8 Custom Paper Album Challenge, too! The deadline for this custom challenge will go to the grave tonight, Oct. 31!

Now, ghouls and goblins, scroll your way to the haunted happening starting TODAY!

  1. Review the pop-up challenge below in this post and/or in the Virtual Crop Facebook Group.
  2. Create a layout of your own (or pull up a sketch from a previous Virtual Crop or blog post) that has a Halloween-themed item anywhere on the page!
    • You could use a paper with a hauntingly cool moon design, a spiderweb embellishment, a Halloween-themed BMC or punch, a photo of carving pumpkins or the kiddos trick-or-treating; ANYTHING Halloween-related is fair game!
  3. Snap a photo of your finished project(s) and share it as a new post in the Virtual Crop Facebook Group by Sunday, Nov. 5, at 11:59pm CT (Australia: 6 Nov. at 4:59pm AEDT) with hashtag #ScrappySpirit for the chance to win a prize. We’ll have 2 lucky winners!
  4. Winners will be announced in the Virtual Crop Facebook Group on Thursday, Nov. 9, at noon CT.

Tip: Check out the fa-boo-lous projects at the end of the blog post (or here) for a starting point! The Happy Hauntings or Full Moon Fun products, along with the Spider Webs Frame Punch and more are just a few items you could choose to use for your #ScrapySpirit layout!

Winners will get to trick-or-treat for their prize from a selection of treats. The options are Prize Pack 1) 12×12 Black Mica Happy Hauntings Album Cover; Prize Pack 2) Bats & Stars Border Maker Cartridge + YOUR CHOICE of any 1 BMC; Prize Pack 3) Spider Webs Frame Punch + Black Shimmer Solid Core Paper Pack; Prize Pack 4) Happy Hauntings Paper Pack + Happy Hauntings Laser Cut Embellishments + Full Moon Fun Paper Pack + Full Moon Fun Stickers

NOTE: The Prize Pack will be awarded to 2 participants who complete the challenge. We will award the prizes randomly, but to win, it must be evident you created a Halloween-themed layout using predominantly Creative Memories products. Prize winners will be announced on Thursday, Nov. 9, at noon CT.
