Groovy 60s Crop Photo Props

I didn't make any decorations for this crop but I did make a few photo props... Thanks to hubby John for creating the cut files for me and hanging up our groovy back drop.

Groovy 60s Crop Name Tags

This past Saturday was the KC Croppers Groovy 60s Crop.  Each September we have a decade themed crop... Started with 80s now down to 60s. So next year it will be the 50s!  

Here are the name tags I made for the 60s Crop. I purchased the peace sign necklaces from Oriental Trading. My good friend and fellow KC Cropper, Bobbie, helped repaint all the plastic peace signs bc they were such poor quality.  They turned out great!  I also used up a ton of little flower Brad's that I've had forever.

August Card Swap

Each month a few friends and I get together and have a card swap.  Where we each create a card (as our sample) and make kits for each to make that same exact card. I went a little over board this month bc I was trying to use up all my scraps, so I created 3 cards for the swap instead of just one.

Eiffel Tower

The Paris Crop was a lot of fun!  My dear hubby, John built this amazing cardboard Eiffel tower for me.  It was a huge hit at the crop.

Paris Crop Nametags

I'm hosting a Paris themed crop this Saturday.  I'm such a procrastinator... started working on our name tags today.  I have 65 name tags to make... This is what I completed today... Plus I cut all the pics and pc's for photo props using my Cricut.  Hopefully I will get the rest done tomorrow.

I have a feeling that I will use ALL my pink cardstock for this crop.  More pics tomorrow.

Storm Trooper Mini Album

Each month we have a crop of about 60 some of us.  And each month we have a different theme for the crop.  Our May crop was a Star Wars theme bc the crop day fell on Star Wars Day (May 4th).  Which also happened to be National Scrapbook Day. 

So I created this mini album to add my pictures from the Star Wars crop to.  My hubby and his friend, Michael built actual Storm trooper costumes to wear.  They were a huge hit, even with our local police officers who came over for pictures with the Stormtroopers and to join us for lunch.  

Here is the album I made... And below that is pics of our Stormtroopers.

1980s Pocket Letter

I love making pocket letters.  They are quick and easy.  Here is an 80s pocket Letter I created using cut files.  For the background, I splattered florescent tempera paint onto black poster board pieces cut at 2.5" x 3.5".
