Fall Cropping Event

I am happy to say that I held my first Cropping Event ever! I had a great time seeing old and new friends. I rented a room at Bedford Town Hall for 12 whole hours. Let's just say that when I told the people that I needed the room for that amount of time they couldn't believe that a group of ladies could sit in a room for that long working on our scrapbook projects and layouts. I guess they don't know us too well - if  we could, we would have probably be in that room till midnight or even longer!


These are the small gifts that I made for everyone that attended. I used our Cricut Art Philosophy Cartridge for the container and the leaves. Inside was some candy and a small stamp set.

 

I had hourly prize drawings and a special prize for those that brought a snack to share. Big thank you to all that brought snacks! My husband catered the food for us (lunch and dinner). Thanks Matt! He made us yummy Taco Salad, Mac & Cheese with ham and bacon, Noodles with carrots, chicken and snow peas and chicken wings. For a special treat we also had chocolate covered strawberries.

The prize table - I forgot to take a picture at the beginning of the crop. So took this picture halfway through the day.

Ladies that attended the Crop

 

Overall it was a great time. I got asked when the next Crop was going to be as people were leaving out the door! So let's just say the next day I called the lady to see if I could reserve the room. So....... save the date ladies, the next crop will be on Saturday, January 28, 2012. Who wants to attend???
