My Memories Suite Review and Giveaway


I was contacted by My Memories to do a review of their digital scrapbooking software. I was pretty shocked to be contacted as my blog isn't a large one with a lot of followers, but I was also very excited for the opportunity. I do enjoy scrapbooking in my spare time and have several paper scrapbooks, but I had never ventured into the world of digital scrapbooking before.

I was incredibly eager to get started using My Memories Suite right away. Signing up for the website and downloading the digital scrapbooking software was extraordinarily easy. As soon as the software was downloaded, I opened it up and played around. There are tons templates that come with the software. I chose one and got started with my own little digital scrapbook.

My Memories Suite is very user friendly.. Upon opening the first page, there were three spots for photos. I decided to make a scrapbook of my family and started with my brother's family. I chose the three photos I wanted to use on the first page. Inserting them into the spots for photos was as simple as double clicking the photo spot and choosing the photo. Most of them needed to be cropped to fit properly which was incredibly easy to do. The following are the pages I created using a template:

My brother's family.
My parents.
My sister's family.
ME!
Then I decided to venture out of the world of templates and into the world of blank pages. I had a photo in mind that I wanted to use so using a red and black color scheme, I created another page. It's so very easy to add elements to a blank page and turn it into something beautiful. I chose a background, then added some ribbons, a bow, and an embellishment. It turned into this beautiful page:

My niece Hailey.
It's also very easy to turn your scrapbook into a calendar. I chose a layout that I liked and then modified it to turn it into a calendar page. It's super easy to do and only took me a few minutes!


I can't wait to play around with My Memories Suite more... The program is very sweet (pun intended!). I hope to make many neat projects to share with you in the months ahead!

I was getting a lot of spam comments, so I had to turn off anonymous user comments. Sorry! I love reading your comments though!
