LAST WEEK'S PHOTO RECAP

Please include #MyEvent in your description when posting your photo(s) to be considered for inclusion in the weekly collage. Thanks!

• Top Row Left: Advisor Margo Diebold had an amazing NSD event with 10 fabulous ladies. 

• Top Row Right: Advisor Meg Carpenter was set up and ready to go at a recent expo. Team members Lesley Hooker, Mary Olson and Margaret Wyneken helped with merchandise styling. Also, team members Angel Marie Johnson, Annette Fisher (and her husband and sons), Kathy Bogue, Kim Casson Roscoe, Susan Brandes, Linda Campbell and Sharylene Shinoda Kanno helped set up, made the visitors feel welcome, sold a lot of 12-inch Trimmers and got the truck loaded and unloaded. Way to go, everyone!

• Second Row Left: Advisor Kim Cloute Raynak and group celebrated NSD at her event. The guests loved the lemon theme and Kim even had a “Pin the Stem on the Lemon” game.

•  Second Row Right: It was a weekend of summer lovin’ for Advisors Karen Mahoney and Tiffany Ballard Call. The event included classes, demos and plenty of memories being made. 

• Third Row Left: Advisor Emily Gallo and this crafty crew enjoyed “smooth sails” at her themed crop. She hosted 15 croppers and taught a Beginner Class.

• Third Row Right: Advisor Barbara Cauchon hosted her seasonal in-person crop. It included brunch and then scrapbooking in the afternoon. 

• Bottom Row Left: Advisor Suzanne Orlando hosted 10 scrappers at her recent crop. 

• Bottom Row Right: Advisor Nicole Soh hosted her annual two-day Disney-themed crop — perfect timing with the Enchanted collection launch.

• Top Row Left: Advisor Denise Harding Mitchell had her second NSD event for 40 ladies. Denise taught a Beginner Class and lots of layouts and cards were made by all.

• Top Row Right: Advisor Theresa Harlan held an NSD retreat for some fantastic scrapbookers — this was the first event Theresa hosted by herself in 10 years. Attendees relished a Make & Take, different classes, welcome gift, product buffet and more!

• Second Row Middle: Advisor Toni Arnold had a fun and successful Advisor event — 116 total pages were completed.

• Second Row Right: Advisor Beth Saunders was at a recent conference and learned so much! Beth gave away old sketch booklets in exchange for contact info and was so happy to share about CM — the flyers with her info and upcoming classes worked well as a “business card.”

• Third Row Left: Scrappers loved “squeezing the day” at Advisor Adrienne Stevens’ two-day NSD crop. Adrienne held a Beginner Class and guests devoured the many lemon desserts and treats, including pink lemonade slushies from teammate Maria Gregg.

• Third Row Right: Advisor Connie Tabor Skaggs organized a “Friday Fun Day Zoom Crop” for a few of her customers.

•  Bottom: Advisor Martha Cooper Murray held an NSD event that included techniques, lots of good food, great sales and scrapbooking, of course! She also gives a much-deserved shout-out to Advisor Laurie Appel.

Reminder for Advisors for VC Facebook Group Posts

The Home Office Team is thrilled with all of you who have been working your business on social media, starting your own Facebook Groups and YouTube channels and getting yourself out there meeting new people while nurturing your existing customer base!

As you know, the Virtual Crop Facebook Group community has grown to 33K+ members — including Advisors and customers! Because this group also includes customers, we want to give a friendly reminder to Advisors about Group Rule 5 with regard to “self-promotion”:

What’s Allowed:

• Posting layouts for the Virtual Crop Challenges and Pop-up Challenges

• Sharing your Completed Album Challenge videos

• Sharing a video of how you created a page or did a technique that others are asking to see (Note: Please upload your video directly to the group rather than a link to your video on your blog, website or YouTube channel)

• Sharing project ideas that don’t include any form of self-promotion

• Commenting on group members’ posts/answering their questions without any form of self-promotion

• Giving layout credit to those who supplied the original idea
