Thanks again to everyone and the kind well wishes. I’m resting- I SWEAR! But since I had this info drafted already I thought it would be good to share some information on our super fun on-line crops for everyone- since one is coming up in just a few days!
What is an on-line crop?
Since we are scattered all over the globe it’s not really possible to have a real crop, but virtual crops are the next best thing! From the comfort of your home (in your pj’s if you want!) you can log-on to the Fiskateer message board and get inspiration, participate in challenges, share your projects, chat, and enter in drawings for prizes. The great thing about the message board is that you can check in any time day or night to participate, and if you don’t have time to be crafting that’s OK too. You can just jump on in and chat with us for a while.
How do I sign up?
No need to sign up- just pop on over any time this weekend to get in on the fun. All registered Fiskateers are welcome!
Where do I go?
The main home of the on-line crops is the Fiskateer message board. I will post a welcome message Friday morning explaining what’s going on and where. Of course the Fiskars chat room will also be open, so if you like you can arrange to meet some fiskateers in there for live chat.
Did you say prizes?
Oh yes, there will be prizes! Some randomly given on “RAK” threads, some for challenges, and some randomly given for posting a project in the gallery. Watch for these threads at the message board!
How do I find out more about the challenges?
Go to the Fiskateer message board and look for messages with “crop challenge” in the title. Some will have prizes involved, and some are just for fun.
Can I … ?
You are welcome to ask questions, give away a a random prize (RAK) if you are so inclined, start discussions, and enjoy the company of all the wonderful Fiskateers. The only real ‘rule’ is that everyone is kind and respectful to one another.

May 23rd, 2007 at 10:44 pmI am soooo looking forward to this. I love it when the Fiskateer’s site is Alive with activity. You can hear the paper trimmers going and smell the paint drying. The prizes are just an added bonus…

May 25th, 2007 at 9:08 amI’ve heard that May has provided some prizes to several Fiskateers to give away during the crop. So, make sure to read ALL the messages on the message board from everyone. You never know where a treasure may be hidden! (hint, hint!)
