New freebies and a new tutorial

Hey everyone!
This week, I have a new tutorial for you guys. This tutorial is showcasing My Memories Suite V3 on How to Find Purchased Content in your software. You can see how easy this software is and how your software gets upgraded with each compatible kit. Don’t forget to use the discount code STMMMS35043 if you’re interested in purchasing this software at www.mymemories.com ; you will get a $10 discount by using this code!;)
Here’s the tutorial link for you:  http://mymemories.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=2db59f577e9668b002ca5c0af&id=3399e9a712&e=e016845246

I also have new freebies for everyone this week. These freebies can be used in any software! These freebies include two 4” x 6” Quick Pages, and all the papers and elements used in creating them. The Quick Pages and elements are .png files and the papers are .jpg format. My Memories Suite Templates are auto installed in the software, but these are for everyone, even if you don’t have a My Memories Suite software!!! You can do lots of wonderful things with these freebies: create smaller projects like postcards, photos for printing et cetera or add elements to a larger layout and use it as a photo mat!
Here’s the link for everyone to download these freebies: Sorry, link has expired; check out the newer posts for new freebies. 


Just layer your photos behind the open box and add some text and you’re done! I’ve created a sample for you to see. I think that the designer forgot to create two open boxes in the Quick Page I’ve used; there’s only one open box, but you can layer your picture on top and then add the ric rac on top of the picture.



Don’t forget to participate in my My Memories Suite V3 software GIVEAWAY if you still haven’t participated yet. Check out my previous post for a chance to win Amazon’s #1 digital scrapbooking software.;)


Hugs and till next time!

So what can you do with this software?
You can easily create professional looking postcards, covers for your essays, scrapbooks, photo books or DVDs with your videos and/or pictures you have lying around or which are somewhere deeply stored and hardly looked at. Think of all the wonderful pictures you will be taking soon: baby showers, birthdays, weddings, vacations, graduations etc. Wouldn’t it be nice having them printed out like a professional book? You can also e-mail your created layouts to your family and friends or place it on your facebook page. Check out my beauty and fashion blog CREATIVE D-ZINE to see some more samples of layouts I’ve created with this software. You can also read my 1st My Memories Suite giveaway post out there to know some more about this software. The rules are very simple, so do try out your luck. You do need internet connection on your PC or Mac to download and install this software. I won’t leave anyone empty handed, cause if you haven’t won the software, you will receive a free pack containing 2 Quick Pages and all the papers and embellishment used in creating them.

Valentine's freebies

Hi everyone!
I’m back with this week’s new freebies!
Here’s the link for everyone to download these freebies: the link for these freebies has expired; check the newer posts for new freebies
Barbara Eastwick has a tutorial for you on how you can create Valentine’s Cards for your child’s class with these freebies HERE's.



The My Memories Suite software is so easy that even your child can create his/her own Valentine’s Cards. And remember, you can use my discount code STMMMS35043 to purchase your software.
Here are some advantages of purchasing the My Memories Suite Version 3 software:
• The cool thing is that with the discount code you will be the owner of this software for only $29.97!!!
• You will receive a $10 coupon, which comes with the software. With this coupon you can choose a kit for free at http://www.mymemories.com/ when the kit costs $10 or less. When you purchase something that’s over $10, it’s minus $10 off your purchase!
• You can download lots of kits at http://www.mymemories.com/ for free!!! The free kits at http://www.mymemories.com/ are available for a limited time and are replaced by other new kits. So you will never get bored working with this software, cause you will always have new items to work with, which are absolutely free!!!

You can create your Valentine’s card within a minute or two with this software. I have created a Valentine’s card and I’ve used items from the MMS software, the Cherished Wedding Pack and from the free kit Loved Ones Extras which I had downloaded from http://www.mymemories.com/ .

Here are the steps for creating this card:
• Open a blank page in MMS.
• Place a background by using the Background Papers tab on your Control Panel: Background Papers --> Purchased --> Weddings --> white petals --> OK
• Place some embellishments on your background: Embellishments --> Add --> Purchased --> Love --> Loved Ones Extras --> 2HeartsShdw --> Apply --> Weddings --> Cherished Wedding Pack --> Tags -->  4ever tag --> Apply --> Love --> Side by Side --> Perfect Couple --> Apply --> Close. So you now have all the embellishments on your page. Arrange the embellishments the way you like, make them a bit bigger or smaller if you like and you’re done!

You can use another background and/or embellishments to create your own unique Valentine’s card. Print out your card or save it for sharing through mail, fb etc. If you use packs which are created by StoryRock you could even sell your created card.;) Packs/kits sold at http://www.mymemories.com/ which are not created by StoryRock have their own policies, so if you use packs created by other parties, you will have to find out yourself if you are allowed to sell your created cards.


That’s it for today’s post! Do come back next week, cuase February is a month filled with love and I have something very special for you!!!
