Remember This Moment
Hello friends!
I have another layout to share that I created with my March Main kit from My Creative Scrapbook featuring the gorgeous Pinkfresh Studios Spring Vibes collection. I am still working my way through the maternity photos I took of my son and his girlfriend. They were expecting a boy, thus the blue background.
You can see detailed photos and here all about my process by watching my YouTube video.

I am always in need of birthday cards and thought these fun new sliceform pop-up birthday cards from Lori Whitlock were just perfect. This pink girly A2 Sliceform Pop-up Birthday Cake Card (SVG, Silhouette) cut file can be found in Lori’s Store along with many other varieties of these new cards. I used the Echo Park Paper All About A Girl collection. The card front looks like normal card.

February Main Kit Layouts - My Creative Scrapbook
Hello friends,
I have some awesome layouts to share with you that I created with the fabulous February Main kit from My Creative Scrapbook featuring the Simple Stories Life Captured collection with some Vicki Boutin Print Shop papers and puffy title stickers.
1. Love You More - This layout was inspired by this amazing cut file from PearTree Cut Files that is included with your kit subscription. I decided to use the hearts to frame my photos of my grandson Jameson at 2 months. Watch my YouTube video to see how this came together.

A2 Card Envelope Box Tutorial - Lori Whitlock
Hello everyone!
I have an A2 card storage box tutorial to share with you today. This A2 Card Envelope Box (SVG, Silhouette) cut file can be found in Lori’s Store along with many other varieties of boxes. I used some pretty pattern papers from Lori's new Day In The Life collection as well as coordinating cardstock from my stash..
Let me show you how easy this box is to put together.
1. Choose your papers and cut out two box bottom pieces and two box top pieces. The cut file contains only one of each so be sure to cut everything twice. Adhere the panels to the cardstock base. Using cardstock for the base pieces will ensure a sturdy box.
2. Working with the bottom of the box first, adhere the two sides of the box together.
4. Now let's work on the box top. Adhere the front to the back by gluing the rectangular piece with pattern paper over the same size rectangular piece with no pattern paper. Fold the sides in making sure the side with pattern paper is on the outside, tucking the tabs in. Adhere the sides and then the tabs.
These boxes would be great for storing your Valentines too.
Thanks so much for stopping by. Be sure to check out Lori’s Store for more amazing cut files.

This 5x7 Grid Pop-up Card Polar Bear (SVG, Silhouette) cut file can be found in Lori’s Store along with many other varieties of these new 5x7 Grid Pop-up cards.

My Creative Scrapbook January Main Kit Layout Share
Hello everyone!
I am really excited to share my layouts with the My Creative Scrapbook January Main kit. This gorgeous kit features the Vicki Boutin Print Shop collection from American Crafts, a Vicki Boutin stencil, and cut files from PearTree Cut Files.
1, Hello Sweet Allie is my first layout. This is my first scrapbook layout about her so you may not know that we foster failed on this sweetie last September. She is just over a year old now and couldn't be sweeter! Even the cats love her! When of the things I did on this layout was to combine the kit stencil with a previous stencil from an earlier kit. I love the effect! I used a Stencil Alpha font from JustNick Studios for her name. Epoxy flair is from Scrappin' Happy Studio.
You can get all the details how how to combine stencils by watching my YouTube Video here ...
2. Snapshots - This layout is based on the monthly sketch by Laura Whitaker. Because it had strips of photos, I thought it would be cool to frame the photos so that they look like negative strips. I created this cut file myself... not hard, it's just repeating rectangles and squares. I used photos from a trip to Aspen with my husband and daughter Colette who is now living in Colorado. We hike Maroon Bells and it was one of the most beautiful places I have ever been.
I have lots of pattern papers, ephemera die cuts, and chipboard stickers left over for many more layouts. These kits are an amazing value! Please check out all the kits from My Creative Scrapbook here... https://linktr.ee/MyCreativeScrapbook. They put together 4 different kits each month so there is something for every scrapbooker.
Thanks so much for stopping by
