Everyone loves a party! Spend time reflecting the events of the year, share stories, laughter, tips and techniques, and connecting with your favorite friends and family. Host a crop night party and you could earn free scrapbooking supplies! Here’s how it works:

• Set a date, time, place and theme for your party and invite your guests. Your theme could be Altered Art Crop Night, Vacation Crop Night, or an Anything Goes theme.

• Two weeks before your crop night, purchase your sample pack at a discount of 25%. Minimum sample pack purchase is $50.

Choose your sample pack based on your theme or let us send you a beginner sample pack complete with coordinating papers, matching tags, stickers or other embellishments.  For example, your theme could be based on a manufacturer such as K&Company or KI Memories. Or you can choose a technique as a theme such as Accordion Books, or Making Cards.

Use your sample pack to demonstrate a sample layout, as product displays, or door prizes.

• On your crop night, set up your computer at your cropping area to easily view products and place orders.  You may place your orders online, by fax or you may request order forms and process your orders manually.
• You will earn with every order received, a gift certificate towards free products based on your net sales:
