My Memories Scrapbooking Software GIVEAWAY

I was given a very exciting opportunity to branch out in my scrapbooking hobby and test the My Memories Software suite version 2. I am telling, I have been playing with this software for a few days now and I am really, really loving it!! I am an avowed Paint Shop Pro X3 addict but there is SO much more detail and things that are directly related to scrapbooking and not photo editing or graphics rendering that My Memories does that PSP just cannot touch. I have tried to scrapbook with PSP for years and I always am either disappointed with the page results or wind up  making mini pages with borders and an element.

Here's just a few things that My Memories lets you do that make it the GREATEST software for scrapbookers ever created:

• Choose page sizes from  mini pages and cards all the way up to 12 x 12 pages if your printer has the capability to do so. I have an Epson Stylus 1400 which uses their Claria line of inks. With this wonderful printer, which has been around since I want to say 2007, I am able to print regular pages, 8" x 8" pages, 12" x 12" which has been my standard scrap size since 1999 and incredible 13" x 19" poster size pages!!!
• Integrate backgrounds, elements, mats, frames, in coordinating colors by using the Color Picker tool in every selection
• Create text blocks and word art for those memorable journal passages and eye catching titles!
• Add shadowing to embellishments for a truly three-dimensional look
• Purchase amazing paper packs and embellishment kits and even completed quick pages that you simply add your photos and some personalized text to...in seconds you have a unique and uniquely yours invitation, birth announcement, thank you card, or holiday card or a frameable keepsake for your wall to commemorate your wedding, baby's arrival, graduation and so many more events and adventures!

Can you all tell I adore this software?? I honestly don't think I've opened PSP in a couple weeks...eek!!

Here is a Halloween invite I made for my kiddos Halloween party:

 Followed by this adorable layout I did of my youngest daughter, A7, with a pic taken back in 2009 that I sepia-toned and turned into a layout just today:

Notice the cute ribbon shape with stitching I used to make the journal block. I was able to add that, and then put the text right in it without having to copy and paste the text from a word processing program. My Memories let me do it all in ONE!!
