March 2023 Crop & Create Cards

Lawn Fawn: unicorns, fairies, and smiley-faced clouds are not my thing. I'll likely skip this class. If this is your look, PM me, and once the goods arrive we can settle up and I'll send them to you.

I have to say that I never completed the squirrel Lawn Fawn cards from the last C+C either :/

Lawn Fawn is the biggest negative for me that I see with this event, too.

Me either. I've even tried to sell the stuff (well after cc&ds as per their rule) to no avail.

I love Lawn Fawn. Give me some Copics and a stack of critters to color and I'm a happy girl. Luckily SCT us a variety of classes.

Cute!

The TE looks awesome!

The TE sneak peek is the first one that makes me really wish I'd registered!

Thank you for the easy to find info and showing all the beautiful sneaks. I ended up contacting Jen and signed up...🤣😂. I couldn't have all you girls have fun without me .
Shakti you can try it too, Jen said they had a few more openings.

If you feel like it, would you share a card or two that you've made with it if they're different from the class cards? I wasn't thrilled with that set, and haven't even used it yet (bad me). Thanks!

Email sent. You’re all bad influences—and it’s not like I’m not already adept at leading myself into temptation!

Paid. I'm in!

I'm not that fancy   I have a plastic bin from the dollar tree that I use to organize my class supplies.

Using the long side, I just stand everything in it, in the order of the classes, and pull out what I need as I go.  When class is over I put everything but the completed cards back in the bin.  It holds all the flat stuff, stamps, dies, paper, etc.  Anything bulky, like stuff in a jar, is off to the side waiting. With everything standing up, it's easy to flip thru the supplies.

This is pretty much how I approach my homework too.  Once everything is lined up in the bin, I start tackling all the homework one class at a time.

Shakti Is this your first time doing a C&C weekend?  If so, definitely go back and read thru the posts for the last couple of events.  There are a ton of good tips that will help you manage the weekend.

I have 20+ of the mesh bags, purchased at different times. My first C&C in March 2021 I already had a few of the bags (maybe 4) and for the other classes I just used gallon sized plastic zip loc style bags. The zip loc style bags worked fine, but I like everything to match. LOL! And the mesh bags are sturdier than the floppy plastic of the zip loc style bags.

I use them for things other than just C&C. Keeping projects together, using them instead of manilla folders for transporting documents, taking crafting projects camping, my calligraphy class work, taking a project to the framers or the fabric store for matching. 

I think if you get them you won't be disappointed. But it's not a necessity. Not saying you do but if you have a limited budget, you might wait to see if you'd rather spend money on supplies or organization.
