My Memories Giveaway ~ Disney Christmas Layouts

I made 5 Layouts using the My Memories Digital Scrapbooking Software. I used the Christmas Snow Templates, these are pre-made layouts with very little embellishing but the pictures are just click and enter. I added ribbons, mats, snowflakes, text, journaling blocks, flowers and more.  I used all the stuff that is either comes pre-loaded in the software or from the freebies kits. I am having a Giveaway of the My Memories Digital Software. Check out the rules HERE, its pretty simple to enter in for a chance to win this fun and easy digital scrapbooking software.

Again, none of these cost me any money to make since it was from the pre-loaded items and from the freebies kits. Though there kits are very affordable. If your looking for an easy, fun and simple digital scrapbooking software I would recommend this program. So, be sure to enter into the giveaway contest. If you don't happen to win or you already have this wonderful program be sure to use this coupon code: MMS4Blog to save!

Until Next Time...

My Memories Giveaway ~ Holiday Layouts

Wanted to share two simple quick and easy Holiday Layouts I did using the My Memories Suite V.2

Remember there is a chance for you to win this software for Free Check out my earlier Blog post HERE about how you can enter a chance to win this easy and fun digital scrapbooking software!

This Christmas Layout was super easy. One it was a pre-made layout, just add the picture of your choice and then add any embellishments you chose.  I added the ribbon knots, chose the color and resized and turned them as I wanted. I added the faux stitching, chose again, color, size and place for it to be. This one took me less than 5 minutes from opening up the software to exporting the .jpeg file.

This Halloween Layout I built "Custom" Layout.  I chose the picture amount, the way the pictures were to be placed on the layout, background paper, embellishments, matting the pictures, color and thickness of mats, and the border and ribbon of ricrac. This one did take me a lil longer as i played around with different background papers and embellisments. I think overall it was less than 15 min.

Both these layouts didn't cost me one cent. It was done with what comes pre-loaded on the software and with stuff from their FREEBIES, check out all those HERE! But even their kits in their shops are very affordable and they always seem to be having some sort of sale!

Remember, If you can't wait to win or don't win, My Memories Suite is giving my readers a special coupon code to save $10 on the purchase of the software AND a $10 coupon to use in the MyMemories.com store - a $20 value!  Just use this coupon code: MMS4Blog to save!!  This coupon code can be used at any time and feel free to share it with your friends. I will have a button on my sidebar with the coupon code also for future use. 

Again, Check out my previous Post on rules (simple only 2 required, the rest are optional) to be entered into the contest to win this fun and easy digital scrapbooking software.

My Memories Giveaway (Digital Software) Want to Win it?!

I'm thrilled to share this wonderful scrapbooking software, My Memories Suite, that I was recently introduced to, with all you, my readers.  I have been playing around with it a little and it is lots of fun and so easy to use.  I am still on that fence about digital vs. traditional and I think finding different softwares to play around with is getting me to the point of mixed. I honestly don't know if I ever will give up traditional but thinking in the far future everything will be on some sort of media and want to preserve my creations for future generations to enjoy and know who "we were". 

What is My Memories Suite version 2 software? It is a complete digital scrapbooking solution that provides a powerful set of creative tools and multiple sharing options that no other software can offer. Its has great time-saving features (as digital is supposed to be quicker and faster) which is great for a beginner to build an entire album probably about the time it takes to traditional make a few pages , or to allow the more novice to experienced scrapper to build a scrapbook album masterpiece. Its NOT just pages you can create, you can create CARDS too!

Like I said its not just for scrapbooking, you can also make cards, calendars and so much more with My Memories Suite. The software already comes pre-loaded with a ton of awesome layouts, papers, embelishments, etc., but they offer additional digital scrapbooking kits/paper/layouts that you can purchase.

 They also have wedding studio software and photobook studio software available. They have pre-made layouts BUT you aren't a slave to them. You can customize, re-size and crop your little heart out. You can add embellishments, journaling boxes and word art. You can even add music and narration to share online or turn it into a video.  Of course who doesn't love Freebies right? be sure to check out the free downloads they have, you'll be amazed at all the Free downloads available. But even the price for the packages is so reasonable and the great sales they have make it so affordable!

I'm sure I'll get more creative with this as I learn the software better, and learn to make better layouts, cards and more. As with anything, you need to spend the time to learn its possibilities to make it work for you.

Best  part of Digital (sometimes is obvious) of the hassle and savings of no cutting, gluing, making a mess.  I love scrapbooking, but getting all that stuff out and putting it up is why I haven't done a page in so long.  Also, it saves you time and money on printing pictures as the pictures are printed with the layout and they are perfectly cropped/sized when you do the layout.
