Follow Us on Facebook!

We now have a Facebook page, so if you are a Facebook addict, become a fan of NJ Crop Weekends!!!  We'll see you there!!!  (But don't worry, we'll still be here too!!)

A Big Thank You to All!!

On behalf of all the demonstrators, I wanted to thank all of you who came out in our big storm and cropped with us this weekend.  It was a great weekend and I think everyone had a great time!

I just uploaded several photos from this weekend.  I always think I take so many, and then when I get home, there are never as many as I thought.  But I know others took some too, so maybe I'll be able to add more later this week.  In the meantime, check out the album I do have - maybe you'll see yourself in some of them!!

Our Spring Crop Weekend is also open for registration, so please check out the info here.

Thank you again for joining us!  We hope to see you at another NJ Crop Weekends Crop in the near future!!

Love, Jen Peel

Winter Crop Weekend: Last Minute Reminders

I’m sure everyone has heard about the upcoming storm, and I want to assure you, the Scrapbooking Weekend WILL go on!!!

Thursday Night Availability: If you are concerned about the weather and would like to stay at the hotel on Thursday night, the hotel has made several rooms available to us.  If you would like to take advantage of that, the rate is $102.35 for a regular room (suites are more).  That price would be split between every person in the room and includes all state and hotel taxes.  Please email Jen with the names of people in your room and I will book your room that night.  You will have to pay Jen Peel at the weekend and a check would be preferred.

Curbside Assistance: The hotel provides curbside assistance!!  To utilize this service (which is FREE!), please drive to the front of the hotel and a bell hop will greet you and unload all of your supplies and take them to the room for you.  (They do appreciate tips!!)

Directions: Here is a link to the directions from the Dolce’s website. Other than that, we are looking forward to a great weekend. 

Safe travels!!

Candy Swap Participants-Check this out

The candy swap is scheduled for Friday night, so everyone can enjoy the "sweet treats" all weekend long.  If you will not be arriving until Sat. morning, please send your candy swaps with someone on Friday, if possible.

Thanks

As promised, here are the swaps for the weekend, numbers, and info.  Please excuse spellings of last names, some people only responded with first names...which was fine, but I had to guess a few spellings.  If any of the information, stated here, is incorrect...please notify as soon as possible so I can fix it at stampinjenn@yahoo.com

Ribbon Swap:   There are 9 Participants.  Please come to the crop with 9 swaps.  In each swap there should be 5 different ribbons, 1 yard of each ribbon.  You may package it any way you would like...but make sure they are packaged "together" for each participant.

Build a Bear Workshop at the Crop weekend

Build a Bear is not just for kids any more.  Check out class samples that were made for this one of kind workshop.  Use the BIG SHOT and Build a Bear stamps to create a 12x12 corkboard, A Build a Bear notebook, and a card (this sample was taken from another class, the one for the weekend class will match the corkboard and notebook).  These can easily be given as a gift, used for your own use, shared with a friend, or split up for all three.  You choose.

There are stills spots available for the Winter Crop Silk Scarf class on Sunday morning.  Here are a few photos of the winter scarf option.  You can also choose to create a fall-themed scarf with leaves or a floral-themed scarf.  In the class you'll hand stamp the scarf and make the box and coordinating tag.  You can make one scarf for $18 or two for $30.  Register for this and all classes here .
