5.13_Monochrome Grunge

These are some color variations on a grunge overlay. There are several more colors that I may upload later if you guys like them. The grayscale one can be used easily as an overlay for whatever colors you'd like, too.

I uploaded them to my Flickr gallery weeks ago and totally forgot that I had't posted the zips.  Sorry about that.  I'm going to get with the program now. Zips will be up as soon as they finish uploading.

MyMemories Freebies-Deco Dragon Eggs

Update: I realized this morning that I'd set these links up wrong.  I'm really sorry! Clicking the images will now take you to the downloads on the MyMemories store site.

There are assembly instructions as well.

Lesson learned: Don't try to make complicated blog posts when tired.

Here's something for all the paper crafters out there.  I haven't tried these, but they do look like they'd make cool part favors or decorations.  They're free until May 19, 2013 at the MyMemories.com store.

These are available in .JPG format by clicking the "General" download.

 They'll work in any image program, but if you're interested in MyMemories Suite, my referral code is STMMMS69181. You can use that code any time for a $10 discount on the software (regularly $39.97) plus $10 in free store merchandise.

MyMemories Suite Software Review

A couple of weeks ago, I received an email offering me the opportunity to review digital scrapbook software MyMemories Suite .  As I've mentioned, I don't scrap very much, so I wasn't sure how I'd test a scrapbooking program.

I ended up  designing some cards.  I also tried some banners and custom layout designs, but these cards were my favorite.

Free MyMemories Suite Giveaway Bonus Prize

So, as  I mentioned yesterday, I'm hosting a giveaway for MyMemories Suite Digital Scrapbook Software.

One thing I don't like about giveaways is that I never win anything.  So I decided to make this giveaway a little nicer by offering a bonus.

This set of background textures is huge at 3600x3600 px and I tried to give it a nice variety of different styles so that it will be useful to everyone.

My Memories Suite Design Samples

I posted last night about a free digital scrapbook software I'm giving away.

I wanted to post some samples for you to show you what the program can do.

I don't have children or any family close by, so I don't do much scrapping.  If I do, it's usually for someone else.  I have a minor obsession with greeting cards, though.  I collect second hand cards from thrift stores and I will never throw out birthday cards or holiday cards of any kind if I can help it.

I think personalized cards make awesome gifts, too, so I make them whenever I can.  These particular cards are gifts for my friends and family that I had been putting off making.

The thank you card was made mainly from resources that come with My Memories Suite.  One of the flowers was from this project I posted about last month.

The Mother's Day Card and Best Friends card were created with MMS elements and this kit called Mother by Snackpackgu.

I have personalized text on the finished gifts; I left most that off the samples for privacy reasons.


There is a gallery below with the full sized card fronts.

Digital Scrapbook Software--Totally Free! (And Everyone Gets A Prize!)

Are you looking for an alternative to Photoshop?  Do you want a simple to use program that will help you make attractive graphics without spending hours at a go?

I have recently had the opportunity to review digital scrapbooking software, MyMemories Suite version 4.  I'll be posting that review in a few days.  For right now, I'd like to offer you a chance to win a free copy of the software. (Retail $39.97)

If you're reading my blog, I'm sure you know how careful I am about recommending anything.  I don't have banner ads on the site and will only link to products or articles that I can vouch for.

My Memories Suite is a feature-rich program that comes with a huge selection of content you can use in your products.  It's also very versatile and a lot of fun!  I've used it to make cards and web banners as well as custom scrapbook layouts.

If you're looking for a program for your scrapbooking or other art projects and would like something simpler to use than Photoshop or Paint Shop Pro, this is the program for you.
