November Completed Album Challenge PLUS A holiday-inspired Scrapbook Layout
There’s a chill in the air, and sometimes that’s the only excuse you need to stay in and scrapbook! Show off your hard work during the November Completed Album Challenge starting tonight in the Virtual Crop Facebook Group. Need some inspiration to get those final few pages done? Check out this holiday-inspired scrapbook layout below — and it’s appropriate no matter the weather!
If you completed an album this month (does not need to be from start to finish in November, just completed in November), make a short video flipping through each of the pages in your newly completed album. Then, post your video in the Virtual Crop Facebook Group with the hashtag #CompletedNovember2024 for the chance to win!
Here’s an example of what your Completed Album Challenge video could look like!

Love this! And I have a December Cruise coming up. This will be perfect for that album!
I can’t do that just right now. We are trying to buy a home with 4 bedrooms. We have found 2 house that we really like. It is a triple wide and out of this world. The guy turned his garage into a man’s cave. With hard wood floors and it we’ll become my craft room with a TV so my husband can spend some time with me. Plus the kitchen is so big and it overlooks the town. I-well start after we get moved in.
