Purse Card Freebies

Hey everyone!
I’m back with new freebies!
Here’s the link for everyone to download these freebies: http://www.mymemories.com/store/share_the_memories_kit_3

You do need your My Memories Suite software to work with these freebies. If you don’t have this software yet you can participate in my My Memories Suite software GIVEAWAY. Everyone can participate and it’s open internationally; check out my previous post for details.

I have a tutorial for you from My Memories Suite on how to work with this week’s Purse Card freebies:
1. Print your Purse Card templates on cardstock and gather supplies. (Recommended supplies: small craft scissors, bone folder, 8-12" of ribbon, stapler, tape or velcro)

TIP: To print your information on the inside create another page with the template in place. Put all your text and embellishments in (leaving a little room on the edges) and then remove the template right before exporting or printing the inside page on the back of the first. This will keep from having to worry about if the templates line up exactly when cutting out your card.

2. Using the scissors cut along outside line.

3. Fold card at indentations.

TIP: Using a bone folder will help you get crisp edges on your project.

 

4.  Repeat by folding down top flap.

5.  Staple ribbon to both sides of your card on the inside to look like a strap or handle.

6.  Enjoy the finished cards and share.  Don't forget to use your imagination.  The possibilities are endless!

I created a gift bag with this week’s freebies by adding some extra pieces to the layout. I can place some gifts in my created shoulder bag and gift it to someone.;)

See you guys next time!

Happy belated Mother’s Day!

How’s everyone doing?
I am wishing all the creative moms, who visit my blog, a happy belated Mother’s Day! Moms, did you get any surprises? I am curious what my blog visitors got for their mom and/or how they made their mom’s day special? Do tell me in the comment section of this blog post about your Mother’s Day. I finally took some time off to do creative things with my Freebies, because it was Mother’s Day and I wanted to create something special for my mom. I have new Freebies for you this week. Here’s the link for everyone to download photobox Freebies: http://www.mymemories.com/store/share_the_memories_kit_3


This is what I had created with these Freebies for my mom; mom can place these photo boxes on her working table. The colors aren’t how they were supposed to be, because my dad’s printer is almost out of ink, but mom loved my gifts.

This is actually how the colors are supposed to look like; I received this sample from Liz.

 
Photobox Tutorial
 1. Download template file and install it into your software. If you don’t have your My Memories Suite scrapbooking software yet, use my discount code STMMMS35043 for $10 off your purchase at http://www.mymemories.com/ . You will be paying only $29.97 with this code for this cool software plus you will receive a $10 coupon which comes with the software and you can download lots of free kits at http://www.mymemories.com/ which are replaced by new ones from time to time, so you will never get bored working with this software.


2. Double click on the icon of your My Memories Suite software and choose for the option ‘Create Album From Designer Template’. Choose a template and then click on ‘Next’, then again on ‘Next’ and then on ‘Finish’. So your album has opened now. Now click on ‘Insert’ from the Menu bar and then click on ‘Add Page...’. Choose for blank page. Now you have a blank page. Click on the ‘Embellishment’ tab, then click on ‘Add’. A window will open and you can type in ‘photobox’ in your search box and hit the Enter key. From here you can choose the elements you want to work with and apply it on your page. Click on the ‘Photo’ tab from your ‘Contol Panel’, then click on box, then double click on the box and insert your picture. You can right click and lock your photobox layout if you like to bring changes to your picture.


3. When you’re done creating your layout, print it out, fold it and glue it into a photo box and you’re done!!!


I also gifted mom a cuff bracelet with a locket, in which I had inserted my mom and dad’s picture.

I had packed my bracelet in a little gift bag with a flower card on it, which I had created with the Freebies from my previous posts. I think that my little bag with my flower card on it looks cute. I had attached the flower card with a stapler and then glued the circle on top of the staple.

What do you guys think of the gifts I have created for my mom with Freebies from My Memories Suite? You only have to fold and glue to create your own little bag, flower card and photo boxes. So don’t forget to save the Freebies if you don’t have time yet to create fun things with them.

 

I also had picked a flower for my mom from our garden.;)
 At the moment, I am busy preparing for my test presentation of my thesis. If it goes well I can give a presentation for the big day. So I am very busy at the moment and I am feeling a bit overwhelmed, because I still have to work on my report. Do pray for me that my presentations go well and wish me best of luck!;)

Happy scrapbooking day!

Here’s the link to your second free gift: link to these freebies has expired; check out my newer posts for new freebies.
This is a sample I had created with these freebies. We had celebrated our granny’s 80th birthday on Saturday, so I had created an 80 with the ‘DesignsbyShelle_Cherished-BG6’ background and also had printed out ‘DesignsbyShelle_Cherished-FlowerDoodle’ freebie twice which I had cut out and stuck at the sides of the 80. I had stuck the 80 in the balcony of granny’s house, so everyone could see it.

Here are the steps for you to create your birthday cut-outs:

• Open your My Memories Suite software and choose your album size (I had choosen for an A4 format).
• Click on your ‘Embellishments’ button and then on your ‘Browse Other...’ tab and insert the flower.
• Right click on the icon of your page which you see at the bottom of your screen and choose for ‘Insert Duplicate Page Mirrored’. So now you have two pages with two flowers.
• Now insert another blank page and click on your ‘Word Art Designer’ tab, then click on the ‘Add’ tab and now you can type in your number. I had typed in 8. Click on your ‘Fill’ tab of your ‘Word Art Designer’ and choose for ‘image’. Then click on the ‘Change’ tab and use the background you like from your freebies. Click on the ‘Stroke’ tab and pick a color with your picker. I had chosen the color of my flower. You can do this by clicking on your ‘picker’ tab and then clicking on ‘previous page’ and choosing your color. As simple as that!

You guys have fun with your freebies! I’ll see you guys next time!

XOXO,
