Perhaps at another time . . .

Since there seems to be no interest in the giveaway, I am cancelling it for now.  I came down with a bad head cold and was out of commission for 3 days here and have not been able to finish the album.   All the pages are printed, I just want to add some embellishments and other personal touches.   Hopefully, I will be able to get to it in the next several days.

I will wait another 2 weeks or so and maybe try the giveaway again.

Until next time . . . Happy Digi-Scrapping

A Fantastic Giveaway!

I have wonderful news!  I just discovered something really fun. It’s a scrapbooking software program called MyMemories Suite.  It’s so easy-to-use that I made my first photo album in a matter of minutes!  I simply picked one of the many pre-made designer templates that comes with the program, selected the photographs that I wanted to use and these beautiful pages were created in minutes!  That was it!

I had over 16 pages completed for a scrapbook of Christmas photos that were taken back in 2009.  Now if you know me, I spend alot of time designing and a little bit of time creating pages.  I have lots of kits, several scrapbook pages, but no actual finished scrapbook to show for all that hard work.  That’s where MyMemories Suite comes in.  The thing that took the most time when creating the Christmas pages was writing the journaling . . . and even that wasn’t too bad.  If you like to create scrapbook pages quickly and effortlessly, then MyMemories Suite is for you!

If you’re feeling adventurous, you can even create your own pages from scratch!  You can then turn your pages into a calendar, add music to create a movie for viewing on your computer or a DVD for viewing on your own TV.  You can even have your pages professionally bound and printed or . . . as I elected to do . . . print the pages yourself and add your own embellishments and/or other personal touches for a hybrid scrapbook page.  You can see several of the pages that I printed up in the previews below.  I purchased an 8 x 8 album from the craft store yesterday and will post pictures of the completed book as soon as it’s done.

Now for the best part!  I am giving away a free copy of My Memories Suite digital scrapbook software to one lucky follower!  So here’s the deal . . .  become a follower of this here blog as indicated to the right, “like” CC’s digital designs page on Facebook and/or My Memories Suite Facebook page and/or sign up for my newsletter for up to 4 chances to win a copy of this phenomenal software package.   Be sure to leave a comment on this post for each one of the sites/blogs that you follow letting me know where and how you are following.  If you are already a follower or “like” my Facebook page, just leave a comment on this post telling me so and you will be eligible for up to 4 chances to win the MyMemories Suite software!  Be sure to follow or like any or all of the above and post your comment(s) here by midnight, Saturday, November 19, 2001.  I will announce the winner of the giveaway some time on Sunday, November 20^th.

I’m really excited about this software!  If you’ve been wanting to try digi-scrapping with minimal effort and investment, this is your chance!.  If you’d rather not follow and cannot wait for the giveaway and just want to dig right in to see what MyMemories Suite has to offer, I have a way for you to get MyMemories Suite at an affordable price.  Simply go to http://www.mymemories.com/digital_scrapbooking_software,  copy and paste this code:   STMMMS34574 and use it in the promo code box on the shopping cart page!  You will get $10 off the software (a reduced price of only $29.95), plus you’ll also get a coupon for $10 to use in the MyMemories online store.  That’s a $20 value in all!  Go check it out.  I know you’re gonna love this software!

Here's a preivew of some of the pages created with the MyMemories Suite software . . .

Well . . . I am off for now so I can get more of those pages printed and into my album.  I will be back in the next day or 2 to post photos of my finished "Christmas 2009" scrapbook that I put together.

 Until then . . . Happy Digi-Scrapbooking!

Even more freebies!

I forgot to post my freebie from last week's round of NDC and I also have another one from this week.  This is the final week so I'm not sure when I will be having more freebies available again.  Get them while you can!  This past four weeks has got me back into "designing mode" and helped me get out of a rut that lasted 6 months.  Hope you like the results!  Click on the previews and you will be taken to Digital Scrapbooking Studio's Gallery where you will find links for downloading each of these kits.

First we have Evenin' with Ma 'n Pa.  The challenge was to take the theme of "evening news" and create a heritage type kit.

This final week's challenge was to create a full size kit with the theme of "midnight".  Night's Passion is what I came up with . . .

As I mentioned before, get them while you can.  They may not be around for long!

Plese let me know what you think and Thanks for stopping by!

Until next time . . .

January's Create-a-Kit Challenge, etc.

The kit for this month's challenge is coming along nicely!

As the month is winding down, I will need to finish this, but I also want to try and finish up a couple of other things I've been working on.  On top of all that, I have some work to do for DID's Feburary Collab as well.  Looks like I'm gonna be busy, Busy, BUSY this next week or so.

Don't forget . . . February 1st also holds a special little something coming your way so be sure to check back again real soon!

Many different things happening lately

I've been so busy and haven't been able to post here.  Lots going on . . . I've teamed up together with Anelia.net to bring you all a beautiful new kit.  Days of Wine and Roses has a fun romantic feel with beautiful red, burgundy and green to freshen everything up.

Check it out at the DID store here!

I've also completed the December Create-a-Kit Challenge and the results were fabulous!  Spring Victorian Garden page kit is now available at the DID store as well.  Here is a preview . . .

and some close-ups as well . . .

We are currenlty working on the January Create-a-Kit Challenge in the forum at DID.  Come make some suggestions for the elements to be included in the kit and you could win the kit!

Following is the color palette we are using so come check it out here!

I must say that I've been learning so much from these Create-a-Kit Challenges.  I really think this is more of a challenge for me than it is for any of you.  All you have to do is make suggestions for the papers, elements and even the name of the kit and you could be a winner.  How great is that!  I do all the work and you get a reward.  But I must also say that what I am rewarded with is helping me tremendously in my designing of new kits.  So all of us win!

Also, be sure to keep an eye on the goings on here . . . I have something special coming on February 1st!!  (I'm just so excited about it) . . . It's gonna be fun, Fun, FUN!

Until next time . . .
