My Memories Giveaway

So much for getting back to blogging regularly! I spent the first two days of last week dealing with browser and internet problems, and then came down with a nasty respiratory virus for the rest of the week. This is the first day I've managed to get back to a somewhat normal schedule.

Anyway, I have a giveaway for all my readers! For this week only (October 20-26, 2013) you can download My Memories Suite Version 4 (a $40 value) for free! Simply enter the following code in the promo box before checking out: FreeTreatLO115 (Feel free to copy and paste the code into the promo code box). Please note that this offer applies only to the downloadable version of My Memories. 

  For those of you that haven't heard of My Memories, it is a digital scrabooking software. It can be used to create everything from scrapbook pages to cards, calendars, DVDs, interactive digital albums and more! I used it in this post to create the collage of the first 6 days of the TIAS, rather than posting 6 individual photos. I've also used the program to make monthly calendars for my computer desktop, Facebook cover photos, and to create word art.

My Memories Freebies

Here are the latest freebies from My Memories!

Check the My Memories page to download and see what I did with them.

Purse Card

Check out the MyMemories Page - there are two new freebies available. Hurry, though, as they will only be available until Monday. On my freebie page I try to only use what comes with the kit. Here's my 'only use the template' version.

 



  Here's how I did it: I started off with the template. I then added a background from a STM Freebie from the week of December 5, 2011. It's named MUnderwood_spunky-back-paisley. I addded it as an embellishment so that it could be moved around to get the best position under the template. The butterflies and heart are from the Photo Shoot Mini Kit I rotated the butterflies a bit, and guesstimated how far down they would need to be in order to not be covered by the flap. I left the back plain.

 For the inside, I started with the background from the Sea Memories Kit The flowers are a page element from One True Love Floral Scatters (if you like it, grab it quickly, as I believe it is soon to be retired.) The vellum tag is from another freebie download. The 'vellum' is layered over the flowers, but is opaque, like real vellum, so that the lower layers show through. I wanted two different fonts for the verse, and the reference, so I used two separate text boxes. The swirl embellishment is from SunshineArtz DejaVu Kit and is titled SATZ_DejaVu_peaswirl-01
