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!)

Good Morning,
Perhaps I'm the first one to see this fabulous offer. I'd love to win this machine. I was at the festival Friday and heard you would be doing a demo later on the weekend.
Sorry to have missed it!

Ooh I have the Xyron wishblade which cuts beautifully...only constraint is the size...The creatopia would definitely resolve that issue! Thanks for the chance to win!

The Creatopia will be very useful as it seems to be an extremely versatile tool. The fact that it is 12" wide is a bonus.
Posted by: Sue | October 23, 2009 at 08:13 AM
I would love to have the Creatopia. We have four children and love to find tools to make my crafting more time efficient. Thanks for the chance!

I absolutely have to win this xyron because I have no equipment to flatten or to add some fabrics to my creations. She will offer me several possibilities. I live in Saguenay-lac-Saint-Jean (Quebec) and we still haven't this type of equipment available in our region.

It cuts, embosses, adheres, & laminates...A 'do it all' machine is why it's a must have.
Posted by: JPScraps | October 23, 2009 at 08:22 AM
Wow, another great prize! You guys are on a roll with the big prizes!! :)
Posted by: Diana Fisher | October 23, 2009 at 08:24 AM
I need the Creatopia, because I'm constantly having to get up and switch out tools. I am making lots of holiday projects and I use a lot of xyron adhesives in different sizes and I dry emboss a lot too! I love that one machine does it all!
Posted by: Vera | October 23, 2009 at 08:34 AM
Good Morning
The xyron would add WOW to my pages.
Posted by: Jackie Blais | October 23, 2009 at 08:34 AM
Wow what a great giveaway.
I must have a creatopia because having a device that cuts, embosses, adheres and laminates and making all this in 12 inches wide is fabulous. Just one tool instead of 4 = easier to store!
Thanks so much for giving us a chance to win one!
Posted by: Carole RB | October 23, 2009 at 08:36 AM
Wow . . . I can't believe it's 12 x 12!! What a great prize . . . I hope I win!!
Posted by: Andrea | October 23, 2009 at 08:40 AM
I must have the Creatopia because I teach writing to 3, 4 and 5th graders and I have a bind-it-all and dreamcuts and other assorted goodies to help them turn their fabulous writing into beautiful books. I have a very, very old Xyron that I can no longer buy refills for and that has a few broken parts, but we still use it and will until every last bit of refill I have is finished. I went to price the newer Xyrons and just couldn't afford it on a teacher's salary. My 65 students would just LOVE to have the Creatopia in our classroom!

Oh! It's a beauty to behold. I would love to win because all my friends would be pea green with envy with all the things I could create! ;)
