I *LOVE* Virtual Crops!!!

My Scrapbook Nook had a Virtual Crop this past weekend and I took way advantage of it. I think they had like 27 challenges....and I participated in 12 of them. WOW! I'm telling you, my butt was pretty much glued to my scrap room/computer area all weekend long. Although I did take a break Friday night to go to the movies with the fam bam to watch 2012. Which was GREAT! Anyway, I thought I'd share with ya what I was able to make this weekend. This is by the way the most I have done in a crop...EVAAAA! Ok, warning lots of pics kay! Oh sorry for the poor quality of the pics, it's really hard here in Washington to get good pics, its really dark all day long right now.

A Day in the Life Challenge!
