Ok, so I am super excited about this blog post.
Like. Super. Excited.
This is not only my First Ever Blog Giveaway. But. This product revolutionized my life.
I wish I was kidding.
Anyways.
My Memories Suite is rated #1 by Amazon and TopTen Reviews and also, by me. :)
Have you heard of Digital Scrapbooking? I hadn't until My Memories contacted me and suddenly my life has changed.
I am a huge fan of Creative Memories, although Zach told me this week they are either filing, or filed for bankruptcy, I can't remember. But my issue with them is that Scarpbooking in general is VERY time consuming. Well, and first of all, you have to have physical copies of your pictures.
And that gets expensive. Like printing your pictures. I know, I know, prints are like 13 cents a copy. Which sounds cheap. It really does. But if you're like me and haven't printed a picture in the entire six years of your marriage and have three kids and take daily pictures of them.... 13 cents a copy starts to add up very quickly.
Oh, that's right. I have ZERO printed pictures of my children. Ok. Almost zero. There are some from when Stella was little and some from when Scarlett was a baby, but those are like Target Studio pictures and no candids. I have yet to print a picture of the kids since Scarlett was 3 months old.... That is a terrible thing to admit!!!! There are like 1,000 pictures waiting for me to develop....
Besides that, then you have to purchase the Scrapbooking Materials and make sure they are acid free so as not to damage your photos in the long term and so forth and so on.
And then. You have to have the time. The time to cut and glue or stick or design or put together a look or crop your pictures or whatever.
And as we all know, time is money. :)
Or, more accurately. Time? What time? I have three kids running around and a book that is due out in a month that's not even half way written and dinner that has to be on the table every night and laundry, god-forsaken laundry, and a house that needs desperately to be cleaned and a DVR that is filling up with fall programming and. and. and. this list goes on.
Time does not exist in my life.
Enter Digital Scrapbooking and My Memories Suite.
First of all, I was able to download the software in minutes. And I live in the middle of nowhere and have the slowest internet probably ever. Or at least the slowest internet since like 1998....
Second of all, it's so easy to download. I didn't even have to call or text Zach once to ask him how to do it. That is pretty amazing in itself.
Third of all, once it was downloaded, I was able to explore and put together pages of albums in no time. They have the cutest themes and page layouts and everything I put together was way better than anything I could have come up with on my own.
That's a fact.
I fell in love.
And here are some pages that I literally put together in minutes.
Cutest baby ever? Um, probably. But it would be so easy to put together a baby album for all of my kids. And I love things that are easy.
How about the girls? How perfect is this!!!!
Or this?
I cannot tell you how excited I am to make a Dance Album. I want to find the self-control to start from the beginning, like Stella's Baby Pictures. But I can't!! How could I when Dance is just WAY too much fun????
And that is all included in their software! PLUS. Online, they have just tons more free stuff and even the pages you pay for, I found to be so completely reasonable, it would be easy to add and perfect your albums in no time.
Another great thing about My Memories Suite is that it's not just about Photo Albums. There is SO much more you can do. I am super excited to make a calender this year and add pictures of what the kids are doing each month and what they look like. So that next year, when I am going through each month, the memory of last year will be right there. I will be able to compare the kids and see how much they've grown every day. And I just love that idea.
So. Are you jealous of my software???
Don't be.
Because I get to give away one for free!!!! ($40 value) And how exciting is that????
