Daily Deal - My Memories Scrapbooking Software FREE!! (This week only)

Thanks to my sponsor, My Memories, I have a code to download their awesome digital scrapbooking software for FREE (a $40 value).  No raffles, no quizzes, no random number generators, no strings attached.  (Of course, if you'd like to become a follower of my blog, I'd love that but it's not a requirement!)  This is completely free to my readers for this week only.  Just go to http://www.mymemories.com/ > Software > Choose the My Memories Suite.  Enter the following code at checkout (I recommend you cut and paste).  FreeTreatHA109

So, a little bit about the My Memories Suite software.  This is my go-to for any kind of scrapbooking stuff.  I will admit to being a pretty bad at scrap-booking on paper.  I do love making photobooks though, which makes this software the perfect addition to my arsenal as I don't have to rely on the presets offered by whatever site I'm ordering the book from.  In addition to the pre-set templates that the software has loaded, there's a TON of beautiful paper and element downloads on the My Memories site - some free, some paid.  The beautiful part being that once you've purchased a kit, you can use it as many times as you like, rather than just the once like regular paper.  It's so easy to move elements, change picture sizes, add shadows, borders, layer "papers" and so on.    

I've been working on Owen's first year book for a little while now.  Here's a sampling of pages that I've compiled using the software along with the Sweet Baby Boy kit (a steal at $3.99).

Another great use for the software is for holiday cards, invitations, etc. I used it to do Owen's birth announcement, birthday invitation, baby shower invite for a friend, holiday card for 2012...the list is endless when it comes to possible uses.  There's also a neat function to create a "movie" from your scrapbook, which is something I hope to explore should I ever finish Owen's book!

Once again, the code is FreeTreatHA109 and it will only be active through November 11th.  What are you waiting for?  Go get your download! 

Daily Giveaway - A quick reminder

How has your Labor Day weekend been going?  Yesterday, we made an impromptu visit to Six Flags Magic Mountain - which led to a bruised rib and a small harness rash.  Totally worth it (although I do remember the days when going to a theme park didn't result in feeling quite so beaten up!)  There were some amazing rollercoasters, but the most entertaining part of the day had to be getting soaked head-to-toe on the log ride.  My friends' 21-month old didn't seem to bothered by it at least.

Anyway, if you haven't yet entered, just a quick reminder to submit a comment for your chance to win the My Memories digital scrapbook software giveaway.  I've been playing with the software even more over the last week, and it is very versatile and fun to use.  I'll be picking the winner tomorrow afternoon.

Share your Labor Day stories with me!  Did you get to enjoy the long weekend?
