Life on the {Scrap}beach All Night Crop Scheduled!

Hi, everyone! Welcome back to Life on the {Scrap}beach!

I am excited to announce that after less than three weeks live on the internet, my new web community has over 100 members! WOW! I am so excited to be sharing this crafty space with all you magnificent women. If you haven't had a chance to check out the site, I have included a video tour below:



To celebrate this milestone, I have joined with Regina and Lisa from the super duper awesome Craft Craving Chicas kit club to offer you a few chances to win one of their marvelous kits. They have graciously donated THREE fabulous kits to the Life on the {Scrap}beach web community to give away in celebration of our 100 member milestone! These ladies are so generous, I am overwhelmed, and I am sure you will all join me in going to their blog and leaving a comment with a huge "THANK YOU!" for their kindness to us here!

As many of you already know, Craft Craving Chicas offers unique and affordable limited edition kits on their website. These highly sought-after kits sell out in a matter of minutes because of their unique combination of products and very reasonable prices. Not only that, but Regina and Lisa are valued members of the community at Life on the {Scrap}beach and can be seen in and around the site leaving comments and praise and just chatting about scrapbooking. They are talented, down-to-earth women and add so much to the community with their creativity. I am proud to have them with us and wish them the best of luck in all their creative endeavors!

In addition to these kits, I will also be giving away my most popular project to date from my YouTube Channel during this celebration: the "Family" paper bag album! Some of the videos in this album series have been viewed over 3000 times, so I figure it must be pretty popular. :D

Now, I know what you are all wondering right now: "What do I have to do to get a chance to win this great stuff!?" It's easy! All you need to do is participate in the all night crop celebration we'll be having over at the web community to celebrate our 100 member milestone. It starts at 6:00 p.m., Friday, September 18th and continues until 6:00 a.m., Saturday, September 19th. These times are all Eastern US time.

Throughout the night and morning, I will be posting new threads with challenges as part of the Celebration Crop! You will have until 6:00 p.m. Sunday night to complete the challenges and leave a comment on the challenge thread with a link to your work. The link can be to photos you upload to the gallery there, or to a YouTube video, or to a post on your personal blog. At 6:00 p.m. on Sunday the 20th, I will close all the challenge threads and put the names of the participants into a hat. My husband will draw three winners and I will post the names here and over at the web community by 9:00 p.m. on Sunday night. Your name will go into the hat once for each challenge you participate in, so the more you participate, the more chances you have to win! Good luck to all of you!

Thank you again for making this blog and the web community everything it is today and another big thank you to Lisa and Regina from Craft Craving Chicas for being such great supporters of Life on the {Scrap}beach!

  2. I am excited, too, Stephanie! Can't wait for Friday ~ have to print out a bunch of pictures in preparation! :D I've been working on my two September trade minis & should have some new videos up beginning of the week. And, of course, I've been spending quite a bit of time hanging out at "The Beach" so that's been fun, too.

  3. OMG. That sounds like a ton of fun. Make sure you've got plenty of java on hand! I think the last time I did anything all night, Carter was still president!! HAHAHHA

    Wishing you and all the croppers well.

  4. Thanks, Liz! :D I hope everyone does have a ton of fun! I think I will employ my tried-and-true crop combination of Lifesaver Gummies and full sugar Coca-Cola ~ it's a major sugar high, plus caffeine! Woo-hoo! Of course, the pages I create in this state do have a tendancy to look a little weird.
