HaveFaith and I are going to our first crop tonight! Neither one of us has never been and we don't quite know what to expect.

Any tips or advice? What should I bring and what should stay at home? I want to bring as little stuff as possible.

TIA!

I just went to my first crop a few weeks ago. I say plan your pages ahead, so you know what you'll beed to bring. That way you won't forget as much either!

Good luck, and have lots of fun!!

I saw if you want to bring as little as possible then pre-plan your pages and only take what you will need. Also - maybe you and HaveFaith could share your tools and each bring specific things so you don't have doubles of everything.

Must haves: lots of adhesive and any favorite tools, techniques, embellishments that just might get thrown in at the last minute.

Remember -you can always add last minute embellishments after you get home. Maybe a stick pad to write yourself notes on anything that you want to add or finalize later.

Have fun and I will be home and jealous!!!

Thanks for all the advice ladies! I only have 2 more hours to figure out what pages I'm going to do and what to bring!

Jamie had a good time and got a few cards done. Me- I did nothing! Lol. I wandered the store a couple of times, got some Foamies for DS, and played around with some tools I've never gotten to use before.

I just don't think I'm the kind of person that can do crops. I like sitting in front of the tv with chai and doing my pages. Plus, I've just been really uninspired lately....

Thanks for asking!
