Meet Our New Limited Edition Kit Designer!

 We are so excited to welcome Marie Sabatier to our My Creative Scrapbook Family!  Please check out her bio below.

 

"I live in Lyon, France, with my partner. Mother of two grown boys, I am also grandmother of three grandchildren. My favorite hobbies are photography and scrapbooking, which I have been practicing for more than fifteen years. I scraped alone and explored the internet for a long time before I discovered exactly the style of scrapbooking that suited me. I don't have a particular style: it's often my photography that dictates the direction of my creation, but I particularly appreciate paper, flowers and embellishments."

Sparkling Snowand Paper Cutouts: Our Designers Spotlight Our January Cutfiles!

 Welcome back to the My Creative Scrapbook blog! There is a certain kind of magic that happens when a digital design meets beautiful cardstock. Whether it’s a delicate snowflake or a bold, block-lettered title, cutfiles have completely transformed the way we tell our stories, adding professional-grade precision and stunning dimension to every page.

This month, our design team has taken "cutting edge" quite literally! We are thrilled to spotlight how a single cutfile can be reimagined in a dozen different ways. From the whimsical, wintery charm of "Let it Snow" to the timeless elegance of "Forever," our designers are proving that these intricate outlines are the perfect skeleton for any masterpiece.


Why We Are Obsessed With Cutfiles This Season:

  • Custom Titles: See how the bold "LET IT SNOW" cutfile anchors a layout, providing a high-impact focal point that hand-stickers just can't match.

  • Layering Potential: Watch how our team tucks florals, ephemera, and even mixed media behind and inside the negative spaces of the "FOREVER" designs.

  • Texture & Dimension: By using foam adhesive or varying paper weights, these cuts pop off the page, creating shadows and depth that bring your photos to life.

In this gallery, you’ll see everything from Tracy McLennon’s cozy, rustic winter vibes to Michele Schmidt’s vintage, floral-heavy romance. It’s the same creative spirit, but a world of different possibilities.

Grab a cup of coffee (or your favorite crafting snack) and scroll through these incredible layouts. We hope they inspire you to fire up your Silhouette or Cricut and start carving out some new memories!


Which cutfile style is your favorite—the bold titles or the delicate accents? Let us know in the comments below, and don't forget to tag us in your creations using this month's kit!

Capturing Life’s Golden Hours with Nicole Santos and the LE Kit

 There is something truly magical about a winter stroll through a botanical garden—the way the light hits the last of the autumn gold and the quiet beauty of nature in transition. Today, we are thrilled to showcase a breathtaking layout by Design Team member Nicole Santos, featuring our latest January Limited Edition Kit.

Nicole has perfectly captured a "moment to treasure" at the San Antonio Botanical Gardens. By layering delicate paper doilies, vintage-inspired ephemera, and a stunning cluster of dimensional blooms, she brings a sense of romance and nostalgia to her memories. The soft textures and "Forever" sentiment remind us why we love this hobby: it’s about holding onto the people and places that ground us.
