Using a Cricut Machine for Scrapbooking

One of the most exciting aspects of scrapbooking is using different techniques to create unique and personalized layouts. In this Love You Fur-Ever layout, we will be using a Cricut machine to cut out the title and the layers that add dimension.

The Cricut machine is a versatile tool that allows you to create intricate designs and cutouts with ease. You can use it to cut out shapes of your pets, paw prints, and other fun designs that fit the love theme of this layout.

In addition to the Cricut machine, we will be using other creative techniques such as paper piecing, stamping, and embellishing to add depth and texture to the layout. You can use stickers, ribbons, and other decorative elements to make your layout even more unique and personalized.

Overall, this Love You Fur-Ever layout is a great way to showcase your love for your pets and create a beautiful keepsake that you can cherish for years to come. So gather your supplies, fire up your Cricut machine, and get ready to create a beautiful and memorable scrapbook layout that celebrates your furry friends.

Extra Supplies to Take Your Layout to the Next Level

While the above items are the basics, there are a few additional tools that can take your cat or dog scrapbook layout to the next level. For example, a Cricut machine can be incredibly useful for cutting out intricate shapes and designs. You can use it to make paper piecing quick and easy. (Like these cat paper piecings and dog elements). Foam tape can add dimension to your layout, and patterned paper can add interest and texture.

Other items you may want to consider include:

  • Ink pads
  • Stamps
  • Embellishments (such as brads, buttons, or ribbon)
  • Journaling pens

Creating the Title

The first step for this layout will be creating the title. Using the Cricut machine, you can precisely cut out the title that says “Love You Fur-Ever.” Use the free SVG and upload it to your cutting software (if you are using a Cricut you can use these instructions if you need help).

To make your title stand out, I recommend using foam tape or foam dots to give it that desired dimension.

Using Elements from the Valentine’s Bundle

Now, let’s delve into the charm of the Valentine’s bundle. Incorporating paper piecings and tags from this bundle will enhance the overall look of your scrapbook layout.

These elements bring a touch of love and sweetness to your design. Feel free to mix and match different elements to achieve the desired effect. You can also purchase the elements for this layout separately (if you don’t want the whole Valentine Bundle).

Once you have your elements cut out and pieced together (there are videos for each of these on my YouTube channel) you will be ready to start assembling the layout.

Adhering Elements with Xyron Sticker Maker

The Xyron sticker maker is a fantastic tool for adhesive application. It simplifies the process and ensures that your elements are securely attached.

This is a tool that I have used for years and years. I reach for it when I have a lot of little pieces that need to be stuck down.

Learn how to use it effectively, and you’ll find that it’s a game-changer in your scrapbooking toolkit. Plus, it minimizes mess, which is always a bonus.

Photos Mounts and Scrapbook Layout

Now that your elements are ready to be attached, you will want to decide on the size of your photo mats. It might be that you only have one photo you want to use, so a 4.25″ x 6.25″ paper mat will be best. If you have multiple photos and you have trimmed them down, then just create a photo mat that is about 1/2 inch larger (width and height). This will give you a quarter inch on each side of your photo.

You can create as many photo mounts as you need and add as many layers as you want. Just keep adding 1/2 inch to each of your layers.
