There are a few seats remaining for this AMAZING event. Crops Plus (www.ourcropsplus.com) has quickly become known as a premier scrapbook event in the Washington DC Metro area and beyond.  Why is Crops Plus different?

GOOD FOOD - Crops Plus takes great pride in providing events where you can sit down and forget about everything else! No need to worry about leaving to get your next meal or extra out-of-pocket costs. Our catered meals have been croppers’ favorites for years! EVERY MEAL is provided! Two dinner buffets, Saturday continental breakfast, Sunday breakfast buffet, buffet lunch, unlimited snacks, CHOCOLATE, sodas, desserts (including an ice cream bar on Saturday night!)

BETTER PRIZES – Every attendee will receive a free gift worth $20-$25 just for showing up. And how would you like to win a digital camera? Page kits? Photo printer? Large wheeled scrapbook totes? Tools? Free hotel nights? An iPad? A Cricut Gypsy with 35 pre-loaded cartridges? A $600 vacation package? We go out of our way to offer amazing prizes.  We offer AT LEAST $3,000 in prizes at every crop. Who doesn’t like free stuff?!

GREAT VENDORS – Some of the best vendors in the entire Northern Virginia area will be at each Crops Plus event. Their large stocks cover everything from stamps, papers, adhesives, tools, kits to specialty embellishments and even a massage therapist!

PLENTY OF SPACE - Our crops are held in a spacious, comfortable, climate-controlled ballroom with food, your bed and even a heated indoor pool just steps from your 6×3 table! Every cropper gets a huge table and plenty of space around your chair. We also cap the number of attendees – why feel like you are a sardine or sit in a huge, cold warehouse on uncomfortable chairs. We also offer amazing hotel discounts.

ADDITIONAL BENEFITS - Valet service! We are the only crop we’ve ever heard of to offer valet service for a small additional fee of $5! Pull your car up to the front door and the porter will unload your scrapbook supplies onto a luggage cart and haul them into the crop room while you park your car. Stroll into the crop room with nothing to carry but your coffee.  Cricut, cartridge and computer station – We offer free use of 2 cricuts, 1 cricut expression, over 35 cartridges, a computer and printer! Uninterrupted Crop Time – Our events start at Noon on Friday and end at 3pm on Sunday (51 hours!) with the crop rooms open 24 hours WITH a staff member present to watch your belongings if you choose to head to bed. We also avoid making tons of announcements or have lots of distractions so you can really focus. Swap/Sell Tables -Have extra stash you want to get rid of? Bring it and trade it/sell it or give it away. Get product you would want! We also offer this service online through our Swap Shop on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Crops-Plus/153754387985609) and on our website (that feature coming soon). www.ourcropsplus.com

Our remaining crop events  WILL sell out. The dates are:

April 8-10, 2011 ($225)
September 16-18, 2011 ($225)
November 4-6, 2011 ($225)

This event is open to anyone, so please tell your friends. I am a new Creative Memories consultant and am going to start doing this on a regular basis, so if you can’t make it this month, I will be doing it again next month!!!

Snacks and drinks are provided, at no charge.

Taking $5.00 donation to cover rent of the building. But, even if you can’t donate, please still come! Bring your pics!
