Good morning everyone, Catherine here! For those who follow our blog regularly (and thank you for doing that!) you all know today is our favourite day of the week – our Fabulous Freebie Friday! And we have a special one today!
In our fall issue, on the comments & letters page (p.8), we offered the Xyron Creatopia as our latest giveaway. This is a fantastic new machine that cuts, embosses, adheres (including fabric!) and laminates…I actually think it might make my morning coffee too! The best part is that it is 12” wide! Love that! I had the opportunity to spend time at the Creativ Festival in Toronto last weekend with my friends from Xyron, John Cox and Beth Kingston as they debuted the Creatopia in our booth for the first time in Canada. Let me tell you…Beth was incredible at demonstrating all the amazing things the Creatopia can do. I was truly amazed at its versatility and ease of use. Did I mention it is 12” wide? So, now of course we want to offer it to all our readers!
Tell us why you must-have the new Creatopia by either leaving us a comment below or sending us an email at editor@scrapbookandcards.com. We will draw one lucky winner on Thursday, November 5th! Good luck!
(btw…if anyone is in the Toronto GTA area and looking for a great place to eat, John, Beth and I went to Veritas in the St. Lawrence Market area – all locally grown, organic food…delicious!)

Wow. What a machine and one lucky winner of it!
I need this machine to start my own mommy preschool for my two year old twins. Can you imagine the lessons we could create with this? And, using it with my paper craft projects would be nice, too!

I would love to own the Creatopia because of its versatility and potential for use. I still own the Xyron 850 (after many of my friends have moved on to updated versions)because it continues to meet my crafting needs. I love Xyron's product quality and having all of these functions in one machine would be such a great space saver as well!

A machine that could do all that would be awesome.

I would love to have the Creatopia. I am working on scrapbooks for all of my Nieces and Nephews as well as my Children. Unfortunately, they are all approximately the same age and I give the scrapbooks to them at graduation. This would definitely speed up the process. I also use scrapbooking to bond with my daughter. My son also enjoys it as well.

I really really really could use this machine, I am always ambossing 12x12 by hand and it has given me a serious ache in my wrist. I could really use this!!

I would love the have the Creatopia to share with my 7 year old daughter who has just started scrapbooking with me. She is so creative and this would help her make some beautiful creations.
