Costume Contest Winners and 6-Midnight Layouts

We had such a great time at our 6-Midnight crop last weekend!  Thank you to everyone who participated!  We truly appreciate all of you!

Remember how we had a "Guess our Costumes" contest?  Well, we put all the correct answers into a hat and pulled out a name.  Karen Beagley was the winner and took home a prize packet of scrappin' goodies.  Thanks for playing!  

Candi stumped everyone with her costume.  She was Aggie Cromwell from Disney's Halloweentown.  I know...the walkie talkies threw everyone off (but I guess that was the point)  ;)  I haven't seen Halloweentown, but apparently the character carries mummy walkie talkies at some point in the show. 

If you know Kathy well, her costume shouldn't have been hard to figure out.  She loves to collect Raggedy Ann dolls and that's what she dressed up as.  Here's another photo of her explaining one of the games.  Aren't the striped socks the best?!

This may be hard to believe, but since I was in high school, I've had a secret desire to be in a rock band.  So Halloween was an excellent excuse to play the part, even if it was just pretend.  I don't sing, but would love to learn how to play the guitar.  It's on my bucket list.  :)

Vicky Hanson was the winner of our costume contest.  She said it wasn't hard to come up with this, since she already had everything at home.  She came decked out in a Packers jersey, earrings, necklaces, hat, pom poms, and towel.  What you don't see are the  socks, T-shirt, and jacket.  What a good sport! 

I just realized that we never posted the layouts from our 6-midnight kit.  If you are still working on putting them together, here they are:

Here is a bonus layout using scraps from the kit and the large punch-out letters:

Thanks again to everyone who participated!  We had a great time!  Stay tuned for information on our winter crop, coming up after the holidays.

A 6-Midnight Halloween Contest

Only 2 more days until our 6-Midnight crop!  We are so excited!

Remember how we invited everyone to come dressed in a Halloween costume that night?  Well we are going to have a little contest right here where you can try and guess what our costumes are going to be.  If you think you know the answer, just leave a comment on the blog or on facebook or email us at orders@luckylarkdesigns.com.  We will put all the correct answers into a hat and you could win a prize!

OK...ready?  Here goes:

Upcoming Crops and Class Announcements

We hope you have all been enjoying your summer!  It's hard to believe that we are on the verge of autumn...where does the time go?

A little over a year ago when we embarked on this adventure as Lucky Lark Designs, we were unsure of the response we would get.  We never should have doubted!  We are so grateful for your overwhelming support and the new friendships that have been formed! 

After much consideration, we have decided to change how we are doing classes.  As a design team, our lives have become even more filled with family, work, and other obligations.  We hope you understand and will still continue to support the events we will be hosting.

This is what we have decided to do.  We will no longer be hosting regular scrapbooking classes on Thursday nights.  It takes a huge amount of time to plan, design, and carry out our classes, so we are trying to go with something more manageable for us and our families at this time.  

 Instead, we will hold a crop night each quarter from 6-midnight in Rexburg.  The cost will be minimal because we won't be selling a class kit.  We know that many of you have some (or a lot!) of past kits you have stashed away and never completed.  This would be the perfect time to finish them and get them into your scrapbooks!   We want to make it fun for you and plan to have prizes, games, and other exciting things.  We may also have a few completed kits for sale at these events for those of you who are interested in purchasing some. 

Here is a little information about our first fall event:

WHAT:  FALL 6-MIDNIGHT CROP

WHEN:  FRIDAY, OCTOBER 21ST 

WHERE:  TO BE ANNOUNCED 

(Hopefully the Rexburg Senior Citizen's Center)

If you want, you can come dressed in a Halloween costume just for fun!  We will have games and prizes.  Bring your own treats! 

More information to follow.

Once again, we want to thank you for your support!  We hope you will continue to follow our blog and participate in our crops.  If you have any comments or suggestions, please feel free to contact us at admin@luckylarkdesigns.com.
