My Creative Scrapbook December 2025 Main Kit



Thanks for stopping by! I hope you're having a great day! If you're looking for a great way to treat yourself I hope you consider trying a subscription to one of the My Creative Scrapbook monthly kits. They select the pattern papers and lots of coordinating supplies and deliver it straight to your front door so all you have to focus on is MAKING! Every month they have several kits to choose from.. their Main Kit, LE - Limited Edition, Creative Kit and Album Kit - so you can choose what's right for you!


This time I'm playing with the Main Kit that includes 12" papers and embellishments from Simple Stories "All Wrapped Up" and Photoplay "Christmas Junque" Collections. You'll also find die cuts, stickers, rub on's and lots more! Everything is hand selected with care and perfectly coordinated to work together and shipped directly to your door!
You never know what will be in the kit every month and I really enjoy the surprise in the mail. It's like receiving a gift, and I'm always delighted with what I find inside the box. Quality papers that are relevant to the time of year delivered straight to my door!

I love the traditional reds and greens in this collection, particularly the touch of mint that is unexpected and really pleasing to the eye.
There's loads of sentiments in the die cut pack as well as the puffy sticker sheet. The strings of ornaments are lots of fun and they add a touch of whimsy to the design with their curly ends!
I like to use the 3x4" journaling cards to create focal points for my designs. I don't limit myself to whatever sentiment is printed on them, it's easy to cover them with images or perhaps a larger sentiment.. it's all up to you!
I make my own sheets of foam adhesive by purchasing inexpensive craft foam and adding double sided tape to the front and back. Then I just cut the size I need to raise small or large embellishments. Adding some dimension this way gives your designs a fussier layered look.

Everything you see on my cards is included in the kit EXCEPT for the white cardstock card bases, solid cardstock cover matts, adhesives and gems. Things that you already probably have in your stash right now.
I invite you to join one of their monthly kit clubs and experience the possibilities that their coordinated kits offer. With plenty of innovative materials and ideas to jump start your imagination, preserving your memories and making cards will be effortless and enjoyable. You can see all of the different kits available this month here at My Creative Scrapbook.

Friends Forever


Hi friends! I hope you're having a great day! Today I'm sharing a card made with the Pretty Little Studio Love Is Kind Collection!
This collection is a real treat! The colors are mostly primary with a twist... the red is more of a melon color and the blues are closer to aqua. The messages are friendship and love, and the flowers couldn't be prettier!
I like to use the 3x4" journaling cards to create focal points. This collection has a few of the cards with words die cut from them. On my card today the word "FRIEND" is cut out to create a window perfect for layering over the pretty papers.
This collection has a "MIXED" pack of papers that are printed with different patterns to look like they were pieced together. This takes the guesswork out of paper piecing and projects come together quick.
  
This collection has all the extras too! I hope you'll check it out because it's perfect for celebrating the connections that make life sweet.

Penguin Mug Greetings and a Giveaway!

Hi friends! I hope you're keeping warm because Baby it's COLD outside! I love this time of year because I get to bake and let me tell you.. the house smells terrific!

Have you seen these cute little Penguin Mugs from Pretty Pink Posh? I think they're adorable. The set includes a left and right hand mug, complete with whipped cream and marshmallows. The set includes some small circle die cuts for eyes, but I thought these were more fun!

I layered mine over a Pierced Snowflake background and then added some Snowy Hills alternating white and glitter cardstock.
The finishing touch was a Christmas Banner Greeting. I added a little Stitched Snowflake topped with a bitty heart from the XOXO Heart Border so add a little love to the design.
So how would you like to win this die set for you and a friend? Head on over to my Instagram (click here) and look for this graphic to enter.
Thanks for stopping by! I just wanted you to know I appreciate you and your sweet comments!  I'm linking up to Die Cutting Divas where it's Christmas/Winter this time!
