2019 CM Virtual Crop
Feb. 8 starting at 3pm CT | Feb. 9 starting at 9am CT
Creative Memories is holding their first 2019 Virtual Crop THIS weekend (just announced to the CM Advisors!). Here is the scoop:
What is a Virtual Crop?
A Virtual Crop is an online scrapbooking event where CM gives participants “challenges” to complete, and when you complete them and share them with CM on the Facebook Event Page, you will be eligible to win prizes! For directions on how to prep for a virtual crop, how to interpret a template, and how to share your pages, see the Virtual Crop 411 blog post.
Translation:
You don’t have to pack up ANYTHING! You can scrap in your jeans, your jammies, or your favorite sweats. You can enjoy your coffee, wine, smoothie, green tea, etc….at your leisure. You can do your laundry at the same time (that is what I did last year!).
What does it cost?
NOTHING! There is no fee but you have to RSVP to the event on Facebook. The event page on Facebook is where CM will be posting the challenges and where you will be posting your completed layouts. It’s going to be a blast — don’t miss out!
What kinds of prizes will they award?
Prizes are Creative Memories products such as punches, paper packs, embellishments, cardstock, album covers and more. Prizes are awarded RANDOMLY but your entry has to meet the challenge requirements (e.g., that the sketch was followed and that it uses recent CM products). And a little bird told me that they will be giving away some of the brand new Jan/Feb release products that just came out today! Please note: I didn’t use all CM products last year, but it didn’t matter because…
What is the REAL prize?
For me, the REAL prize from the last Virtual Crop was getting dozens of great ideas from other scrappers. You can download pictures from the Facebook page and keep the pages AND the templates for future reference or just access the Facebook event later. If you are not on FB, they also post the challenges and a summary grouping of the entries on the CM blog at their website. Also, these are VERY practical pages since they have to be completed in a short amount of time. I also got great feedback on the pages I submitted…lots of compliments and “I want to do that!” Those felt SO good coming from experienced scrappers!
Do you have to do every challenge?
Nope. I only did 2 of the four challenges last time (Laundry day was Saturday!). These are the two that I submitted…


Please join me for Friday night, Saturday, or both!
If you send your digital entries to me by Saturday night, I’ll do a drawing on Sunday for a prize as well (whether or not you use CM products).
