My Memories Suite - A giveaway!



I love to take pictures. A lot. I even get in a few now and then. When Joanne and I traveled to Ireland in 2009, I took over 1000 pictures. Yes. I took over A THOUSAND PICTURES. I just couldn't stop. (The inside of every church looks the same after a while. Kept taking pictures anyway.) When my mom and aunt came to visit in July 2010, I kept snapping photos. Of flowers. Of our food. Of us. Of...random stuff.

The problem is, I never do anything with them after I upload them. They just sit on my computer. Every now and then when someone comes over, I make them look at them with me. But that's rare. I've never really been the type to print pictures. Not sure what it is.

So, when I was given an opportunity to review some digital scrapbooking software, I got pretty excited. FINALLY a chance to do something with my pictures!

And I'll say, My Memories Suite is totally awesome. Below you'll find some of what I've been able to do. Those of you who are more creative than I am will no doubt be able to make more amazing scrapbooks than I have.





The really nice thing about the software is that it's set up to guide you through all steps of creation. You can use one of their templates or you can create something from scratch, which is what I chose to do.

You start with the background, add your photos, text, word art, embellishments, shapes, calendars, imprints, etc. It gives you all sorts of options for color, add-ons, and placement on your page.

You can create a scrapbook like I've been working on. Or cards. Or videos. WITH SOUND! You can NARRATE your album! I've always believed I should have a personal soundtrack and with the My Memories software, you can make it happen in your pictures!!

Now here's the best part - I'm having a GIVEAWAY! All you have to do is go to the My Memories website and leave me a comment on my blog or on Facebook and tell me which scrapbooking kit is your favorite. I'll throw everyone's names in some random generator I find on the interwebs and pick one lucky winner on January 23rd!

Want to know what else is pretty awesome? Even if you don't win but want the software, I've got a code that'll get you $10 off the software AND $10 in the store so you can buy kits! Not a bad deal. To take advantage, use code STMMMS7010 when you check out! (Copy and pasting is probably the best way to take the code.)



For great ideas on what you can do with the software, check out their blog, Facebook page, and Twitter!
