We held our first Mini Virtual Crop this past Saturday. We used the 2020-2022 In Color 6"x6" Designer Series Paper and the Tasteful Textures bundle to create our projects. This layout was one of my designs. The pictures are of my husband from 2000 when we went camping with my family. I still need to figure out what I'm going to write for journaling (this is the hardest part of scrapbooking for me).
Today I'm sharing one of the cards we will be making this coming Saturday (June 20th) during Crop Kingston's Mini Virtual Crop. We are featuring the 2020-2022 In Colour 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper for our projects. Earlier today we uploaded the PDF of all the projects we've designed so that you can assemble your items needed to create along with us. If you purchased either the Cards To Go or the Scrapbook To Go kits we have contacted you to arrange pick-up. Our Virtual Crop is from 9am to 1pm. Both Lisa and myself will be going live to share how to create the projects or create alternatives using the same pieces that were included in any of the Kits To Go. All of our projects also use the Tasteful Touches Bundle, this bundle includes a stamp set and a label die set. I hope you can join us to see what our Virtual Crops are like!

Thank you to all that joined us last Saturday at our February crop in support of H'Art Kingston! And thank you for the wonderful feedback about our new location - the Salvation Army Church. It is a wonderful spot with lots of space, good lighting and easy to get to!
During Crop Kingston's Winter Retreat a few weekends ago I held a No Line Water Colouring class and this is the card we made. We started with the Forever Blossoms stamp set stamped in Sahara Sand. Then using an Aqua Painter and ink refills with water we coloured in the image. Using a light coloured ink is the most important part.

Thank you to those that joined us on Saturday at Crop Kingston's January Crop. This month our donations went to the St. Lawrence College Student Emergency Fund.
Happy New Year! Today I am sharing the projects from Crop Kingston's Fall Weekend Retreat we held back in October. Our Winter Weekend Retreat is coming up February 7 to 9. Registration closes on January 7th.
Thank you to those that joined us on November 23rd for Crop Kingston's all day crop. Each attendee received the Night Before Christmas 6"x6" designer series paper pack in their grab bags. Lisa and I provided make and takes using that pack of designer series paper that each person could create during the crop.
Hello and thank you to those that joined us last month for our October all-day crop in support of Ronald McDonald House Charities! Today I'm sharing with you our four make and takes. Make and takes are provided at each crop using product found in the grabs bags. This month each attendee received the Noble Peacock foil sheets.
A lovely day spent crafting this past Saturday! I completed a few projects that were on my to-do list. And yes, I make a to-do list for crop day or I either forget what I was supposed to make or forget something at home!

Thank you to all that join us this past Saturday for our August crop in support of Kingston Animal Rescue.

I had so much fun creating this month's card and pocket page for the crop! There was some fussy cutting for the flowers from the designer series paper. The only stamping on my projects were the greetings/title.

Thank you to everyone that joined us last month for Crop Kingston July's All Day Crop in support of Loving Spoonful here in Kingston. We used the Come Sail Away Memories & More card pack for our Make and Takes this month.

So glad we used this Memories & More card pack this month! I have a whole trip with my mom to PEI in 2013 that needs to be scraped and this pack is perfect for it! Watch for more layouts in the future featuring pictures from this trip and this card pack.
Thank you to everyone that joined us last month for our All Day Crop in support of Partner's In Mission Food Bank here in Kingston. Myself and another demonstrator have teamed up to run Crop Kingston that runs all day crops almost every month and 2 weekend retreats! At our all day crops we have 4 make and takes - a card, a pocket page, a 12"x12" scrapbook page and a 3D item for everyone to make using product in their grab bags.
Thank you to everyone who joined us for Crop Kingston's March Crop in support of Martha's Table. I was able to work on my swaps for Onstage in April - hard to believe April is next week already! For our Make & Takes we used the Animal Expedition Designer Series Paper that was in each participant's grab bag.
Thank you to everyone you joined us Saturday January 26th at our first all day crop for 2019! We raised $50 to donate to the Boys and Girls Club of Kingston. We used the All My Love Designer Series Paper for our Make & Takes.


My pocket page was created with dies and no stamps. I used the Celebrate You Thinlits and Petals & More Thinlits to decorate one of the 4"x6" pockets. The large heart was cut from the designer series paper - I hand cut it with scissors but have discovered that the Be Mine Stitched Framelits has a heart die that will work with it!


The card I designed uses the Amazing Life stamp set. The flowers were hand cut while the main image was cut out using the Layering Oval framelits. A piece of Powder Pink 3/8" Mini Ruffled Ribbon completes the card.


Lisa designed the 12"x12" scrapbook page to showcase pictures from her son's birthday! I love that Otter stamp from the Hey Love stamp set and it works well with the pictures on the layout.


Out next all day crop will be Saturday February 23 in support of H'Art Kingston. Registration is closed for this crop but is open for our March crop on March 23rd in support of Marta's Table here in Kingston. Head over to Facebook to learn more and for the link to register: https://www.facebook.com/events/376893946209713/

Thank you to everyone who spent time crafting the day away on Saturday. It was the perfect day to hide inside while rain/sleet/snow fell! This month's crop was in support of Ronald MacDonald House Charities.

This card was one of the four make and takes from Saturday's Crop Kingston All Day Crop. In each Grab Bag was the Twinkle Designer Series Paper that was used for all name and takes. I love this paper but not the coordinating stamp set (it is cute but not something I see myself using). The punched image and the designer series paper with a sentiment from another stamp set is perfect to welcome baby!

Our next crop is Sat Sep 22 at St. Lawrence College in Kingston, On! Cost is $30. Sign up here!

Supplies
Stamps: Special Celebrations
Colours: Night of Navy, Gray Granite
Accessories: Night of Navy Solid Baker's Twine, Twinkle Adhesive Backed Stars, Layering Circle Framelits, Stampin' Dimensionals

Thank you to everyone who registered for July's Crop Kingston All Day Crop in Support of Loving Spoonful!
I wasn't able to find the zoo pictures from our visit to the zoo in Winnipeg years ago but someday I will find them and put them into this layout!
Thank you for those that crafted this past Saturday at our all day crop in support of Relay For Life! I was able to work with May's Paper Pumpkin kit - Manly Moments and put labels on my new ink pads. It looked like a lot of others were busy creating all day as well!
Thank you all who participated in our April Crop in support of Partner's in Mission Food Bank, we raised $95.00. Next month we are supporting Relay For Life - details can be found here.

In this month's grab bag was the Bundle With Love Memories & More card pack. For the two projects I designed for our make and takes there is no stamping! The cards and stickers included in the card pack make this projects easy and quick! The blue elephant image on the bottom right pocket is punched from one of the 3x4 cards. This card pack has blue on one side and pink on the other! So the above pocket page can easily be created for a girl instead!
Beautiful day for some scrapbooking and paper crafts! Thanks to all who joined us today!

I designed the card and pocket page for this month's Make & Takes:
