my memories: a gift for one of my readers.

a couple weeks ago, i was contacted by my memories, a company that provides digital scrapbooking software. and don't worry... i know what y'all may be thinking as i say this:

scrapbooking... that is sooooo... 1998...

but you can do so much more than scrapbook with the my memories suite, such as the following:
i'm kinda in love with the fun photo templates (there are so. many.), as well as all the fun shapes & text manipulation available. the options feel limitless, & that definitely inspires my creativity! and let's face it, sometimes i need a little bit of help in the creativity department. especially if i haven't had my coffee.

but flowery, involved designs are only a tiny spectrum of what this scrapbook software allows you to create. for bloggers with a more classic, simple taste, there are design options like the following:

as a blogger on an i'm-getting-married-in-a-few-months budget, i was floored when i saw the price of this suite. i'm not gonna lie - i've been toying with the idea of buying cs5 for MONTHS now. i just haven't yet been able to justify the steep purchase. you can imagine the sheer, creative joy i experienced when i discovered this little nugget. of course i still have the beloved cs5 on my wish list - but i think my memories will be able to tide me over a LOT longer than if i not been given this opportunity.

so if, like me, you're a blogger on a budget, i would definitely recommend the my memories suite - creative results, an affordable price, & options for miles. it really is fun to play around with. 

luckily, i've been given a copy of this software to give away to one of my lovely, creative readers!

my memories have also extended a discount to all readers of siddathornton. for $10 off your purchase of the my memories suite scrapbook software, as well as a $10 coupon to the my memories store, use the code, STMMMS98555. i think it's a pretty awesome deal.

I have really enjoyed using the free version of My Memories Scrapbook V3 software. I like the easy to use, intuitive interface. It offers so many options, especially the ability to edit all the digital scrapbook elements---a bonus for me in combining portions of different digital packages to get just what I want. What a bonus! I look forward to learning more about the software features as I use it.

Totally missed this post or I would have entered before now! My favorite feature is the whole concept in general! I have Photoshop on my computer, but I don't know how to use it so it's pointless :( this would be WAY easier!

I'm already a follower via friend connect :)

The best thing I liked about the My Memories website is that I even discovered it! They have all sorts of cool things, free downloads, a dollar store! I totally LOVE all of that kind of stuff! I would LOVE to win this giveaway because I too am a future bride and they have all sorts of charming things and tools to make things! : )

the back and forth.

Justin had to turn on the air conditioner again last night.  It's October 26 - doesn't that mean the heater can stay on? Doesn't...
