12 Hours of cropping and 12 hours of fun!

This Saturday I attended a 12 hour crop. Not so typical of myself. I have not been to an away crop for several years! I had such a hard time packing for this, especially since all of my stuff is in my scrapbook room organized in shelves and what not that are permanent fixtures. I did manage to have loads of fun, win a bunch of prizes(I won a raffle AND the grand prize raffle!)spend some much missed quality time with my sister and I got 3 pages done. I know that is not really a lot of scrapping, but if you know me....that is a TON! Here are the pages I got done.....

Had some fun at the ACOT online crop!

Over the weekend A Cherry on Top held an online crop. If you have never been over there for one you should check out the next one. It is a whole weekend filled with games, prizes, challenges and a whole lot of fun! I had the honors of hosting a shift this time and let me tell you, I have much more appreciation for the CT's after seeing all there is to do...lots to do but it was really fun being on the other end. I really didn't get much done this go around. The first card I did was for a fast scrap that I was hosting. Make a mini christmas stocking for a card or tag. We could not use a pre-made one. I really like how this card came out.

The second card I got done was a shaker card. I wasn't going to attempt it at first because I really wasn't sure how I was gonna do the "shaker" since I had none of the right products, but then my brain started to whirl and I remembered that I had a few Buttons and Bling from Bo bunny(If you have seen the packaging you will know that it is PERFECT for a shaker card!) and whala! I have a shaker card!

There are a lot more challenges to do at ACOT right now. There are the monthly challenges, even though the time is up to submit challenges from the crop for prizes you can still go over there and use them for inspiration. Also, next week I will be putting some challenges up there for my guest spot as guest CT so go check it out!

Starting off the month well!

First of all I want to thank everyone who went over to Little Yellow Bicycle and voted for my project. All of your support landed me the second place spot! I can't wait to get these goodies...$150.00 worth of product...can you say "YAY!"
Second, I was asked to be a guest creative team member over at A Cherry on Top. What an honor! Part of guest CT duties are revealing a new product line. I chose to use Creative Imaginations Be Jolly by Golly line. This was a little hard for me since I really don't do too many Christmas layouts. The line really turned out to be fun to work with.....





ACOT is hosting an on-line crop this weekend, I will be hosting a shift so come on by and check it out....
