Welcome to the Crop: Back2School

July 7, 2023 at 7:00 AM

By p2P Team Members

Welcome students. Class is in session with our current quarterly crop! We plan to help you all complete your PhD – Pages/Projects Half Done. We hope you feel inspired, determined, and unstoppable as you complete your projects one page at a time while learning new techniques during this crop.

This post has all of the general information you need about the crop. Please review this post in its entirety before continuing with the crop. This should have the answers to many of your questions.

The main hashtag for the crop is:

#p2PBack2SchoolCrop

Please use this hashtag on every page you post on social media. Every offering will have its own hashtag directly on the post. Be sure to add all related hashtags to your social media post so that we can be inspired by your pages. If you have never posted an image on social media, Lesson 3 of the Getting Started Guide (see below) will help you get started. If you do not want to post your pages on social media, but would like to share them in our FOREVER Collaborative Albums, links to helpful offerings appear on the right hand side of this page and on every page featuring a Collaborative Album.

If you are new to the FOREVER Artisan software and struggling with the basics, please refer to our Getting Started Guide:

Handy Links

In order to make things easier to find, here are the links that you will use over and over again during the crop:

Badges

Badges are a way of keeping track of your productivity during this crop. For every page you make and every offering you complete, you earn a badge. At any time before the cropping period ends on July 16, 2023 at 11:59 pm ET, you can display all of the badges you have earned on a page or in a FOREVER Album and submit them to receive an exclusive Blueprint. If you are creating a page, it does not have to be fancy. You also don't need to post every page you create to earn a badge. We work on the honor system.

All badges are available in our Badges album. You can select multiple badges or choose them one at a time to download or copy to your FOREVER Library. NOTE: if you download multiple images at once, they will download in a zipped folder.

Badge Submission Process

Everyone who earns 20 or more badges and submits a badge page or shares a badge album will earn an exclusive Blueprint. You must submit your badge page or album using the badge submission form to receive the exclusive Blueprint.

If you have created a FOREVER badge album, please follow these instructions to get the link necessary for the form:

Exclusive Blueprint Prize Selection

If you have been notified that you have won an exclusive Blueprint Prize CLICK HERE to choose your prize. We work on the honor system. Please do not choose a Blueprint if you have not been notified that you have won a prize. We do verify all Blueprint forms, and the store report must match our verified winners form. If you knowingly fill out this form without having won a prize, you will be prohibited from winning future prizes and/or participating in future events. Note: The prize form link will only be active through the end of the crop.

Cropping With a Team/Raffles

At every p2P Virtual Crop, participants are encouraged to crop together as a team using a team hashtag and posting their pages in the pixels2Pages Facebook Community. At the end of the crop, a page is randomly selected and the person who created the page, along with her/his entire team, wins an exclusive Blueprint collection! Since this is a lite crop and there are only two exclusive Blueprints instead of three, the creator of the winning page will win both exclusives along with their choice of a third exclusive from our exclusive Blueprint bank for their entire team. You can crop alone or crop with a team. Every page posted is a chance to win. The winning page will be chosen from pages posted in the FOREVER pixels2Pages Community. The winner will be announced during the Crop Wrap-Up Webinar.

Bingo

The Bingo card template is a great resource that can get you motivated to try new things and complete more pages. Spell PIXIE by filling any horizontal row, spell MAGIC by filling any vertical column, or spell PIXIE MAGIC by filling any diagonal row. Every Pixie Magic Bingo card posted to the pixels2Pages™ Community Facebook group is automatically entered into a drawing for an Exclusive Blueprint. Bingo pages must be posted by the end of day on July 16, 2023. Bingo pages posted in the pixels2Pages Community need to have the hashtag #p2PBack2SchoolBingo in the post in order to be chosen. Post your Bingo page each time you get Bingo for more chances to win.

BRING ON THE BLACKOUT!

Everyone who fills their entire Bingo Card and achieves a Blackout Bingo automatically wins their choice of an Exclusive Blueprint. When choosing your Exclusive Blueprint and answering how you won, put #p2PBlackOutBingo and put "Other" for the Pixie who selected you. CLICK HERE to claim your Exclusive Blueprint prize.

Important Note: A completed page can only be used once on a Bingo card.
