Recently, I had a look through my sister-in-laws scrapbook that she made for her wedding and realised just how nice it must be to look through and reminisce - rather than my basic photo album (which I keep taking photos out of to use in craft projects). So it got me thinking, why do I have no interest in scrapbooking?
I love the way it all looks, how personalised it is and the visual interest and impact it creates, but I have finally figured out why I personally do not do it or have any desire to start it. I do not like that it isn't flat, all those lovely embellishments just make the pages too bulky. That and I would actually need to remember to get that "To Print" folder on my desktop printed before I could get anywhere with a scrapbook.
Imagine the serendipity of thinking about all of this, then receiving an email about MyMemories an amazing digital scrapbooking software!
Not only was I lucky enough to receive a copy of MyMemories Suite, but one of my lucky readers has a chance to win their very own copy!
I have been having a lot of fun with this scrapbook software, it is really easy to create beautiful layouts without having to create a mess or purchase a never ending list of supplies! I have found this scrapbook software to be quick and easy to learn, with so many options for customizing and embellishing your pages.
I could have created an album page by page, but the first thing I think of when it comes to photos is my coaster wall. Because all of my coasters are landscape orientation, there are so many photos I would love to include but couldn't as it would leave empty space... until now!
With this scrapbook software I chose my background, added in two portrait photos from our wedding, added our wedding date (love that shadow effect!), added some swirly embellishments and some hearts. It was so easy, it is flat, every part of it is the perfect size and I don't have a huge mess to clean up!
I think the longest part is going through and simply looking at all the embellishments and papers you can use, as well as trying out the paint and word effects.
You can choose to create standard size pages or create custom size pages like I did for my wall coasters. I loved playing with these photos of Trixie as a pup and how perfect is the speech bubble for that top photo?
There are ready made designer templates included with your MyMemories software so it is incredibly quick and easy to add in some photos and have a page finished in no time! (That's me as a baby with our dog Gloria.)

I LOVE the idea of digital scrapbooking!! I've just recently started scrapbooking the traditional way - which I love because of how hands on it is! I didn't think I would like the idea of digital scrapbooking, however after seeing the benefits - LESS MESS, all the background options, the ability to see how it would look without worrying about ruining photos by cutting them to the wrong size or running out of a decorative piece, not having to wait until photos have been printed AND THEN realising you still don't have all the pictures you need... haha :) I went and had a look at all the kits and would have to say that "A Little Cuckoo" would most definitely be my favourite! I've been wanting to scrapbook my brother and I when we were younger and I think this would be a PERFECT complimentary kit to show how cuckoo our family is! ^.^
