The blog hop is over and deadline has passed for projects.  Thank you to all who visited my blog for the unofficial Crop Chocolate hop. 

All entries went into a had and Julie Odil is the winner of my blog candy stash.  Happy Happy!

I wasn't able to get anything crafty done this week.  I hope to get more creative in the coming months...  Lots of ideas but low on mojo..

Welcome to the Unoffical Crop Chocolate.com blog hop!   If you are not familiar with CropChocolate, it is a great scrappy company to check out.   Tell Jon & everyone "hi"!  They are hosting a Scrappy retreat for their customers this weekend.  A group of lucky ladies are taking a pilgramage to Salt Lake City to meet, scrap, shop, and have fun.  

This blog hop is for those of us "left behind".  Or, those of us who couldn't for one reason or another make the trip.

If I were going to the retreat this weekend, I know a lot of my scrapbook pages would be about this special occasion. 

This challenge is to make a project celebrating the every day moments.

Here are a couple of examples from my personal gallery -

Please post a link to your project in the comments section of this post. Become a follower here on my new blog and you will be entered into my blog candy drawing.   I will draw a random winner for a grab bag from my personal stash next Thursday, July 5. 

Be sure to visit these other blogs for other opportunities to challenge yourself this week - Be sure to make a comment.. one lucky scrapper will win  a $10 Crop Credit on CropChocolate.com, "HomeMade" mini theme by EP, "blue Jean" paper by doodlebug and some distress inks.
