Show us your bra!

Show us your bra... your "altered bra" that is!

During this year's Crop for the Cure, we will be having an altered bra contest. The winner will receive a Scrapbook Retreat weekend! Here's how it works. Use a bra of any size, shape, color, new or used and decorate/embellish it with whatever you can think of-- flowers, beads, staples, chipboard, sewing, stamping, etc. Bring it on a hanger with you to the crop. We promise we won't ask you to model it! :-) Each cropper will cast one vote for their favorite bra. Here is a fun example we saw at the Melissa Frances booth at the CHA Summer show in Chicago. (You may be aware Melissa is a breast cancer survivor and one of her beautiful product lines has a breast cancer survivor theme.) We can't wait to see what everyone comes up with!

Don't forget to stop by between now and the Crop for the Cure on November 8. We'll be posting more photos of the great prizes generously donated by many of our vendors.
