My Memories Suite and a terrific giveaway.
I have been wanting to learn how to digi scrap for awhile now. Several years ago I took a mini introduction class and then came home and was able to create the announcement for Sarah's confirmation. While I have no idea what I did and can't repeat it now, I do remember how hard it was and frustrating. Had to remember layers and what needed to go where, plus getting everything sized just right was a pain.
Fast forward four years and it is time to create graduation announcements. I knew that there was NO WAY I would ever be able to figure out how to use the software that was on my computer again. No Sarah was going to have to settle for the plain announcements like everyone else had. When all of the sudden My Memories Suite comes riding in to rescue me. All of the sudden I am asked to test out this digital software program. I am in love. Look what I was able to create during my first hour of playing with My Memories Suite.

All of the sudden I am asked to test out this digital software program. I am in love. Look what I was able to create during my first hour of playing with My Memories Suite.
I was able to create these 5 layouts with virtually no learning curve required. I just opened the software for the first time, picked out the templates that I wanted to use and then chose the pictures. The program even pops up with a tool that helped me to size and crop the picture perfectly.
The next night I had a little bit more free time and spent some time looking through My Memories Suite website for different kits that I could download. They have several different kits in many different themes to choose from including an entire section of free. In the free section I found some graduation kits, which of course caught my eye as the parent of a senior. I went ahead and downloaded two of the kits. Instead of using the pre-made pages (they were the wrong color) I was able to use the elements to create my own page. Now all I need to do is add pictures once the ceremony is complete in May.
I must admit that the more I play with My Memories Suite, the more I want to do. I am enjoying creating many different layouts including this one from a favorite family get together this past summer. We went to my cousin's farm (which is the farm that the family started on over 100 years ago.) My grandfather and dad were born and raised on this farm and I spent many happy days with my cousin's on the farm. I am so thrilled to be able to share it with my own daughters.
Check out this brief video for an overview of some of the things that you can do with this digital scrapbooking software. There are many other great things that you can do with this software, but I am showing you what I was able to do after only playing with the software for a short time over two days.
And now for the totally cool part. My Memories Suite is giving me a free download for one lucky winner.
