Tortoise Pincushion and Giveaway
Hurrah! Mrs. T has finally arrived.
She has finished munching her lettuce leaves and she has come along to see us and brought her pattern and instructions with her. You will find them in the Tutorials.
And there is more good news. Today I have a Giveaway for you!
You may have noticed I have been presenting some of my photos recently using the My Memories Suite Digital Scrapbooking Software.
I am really pleased with it and the good news is that I have one to offer as a Giveaway for one lucky person, plus a special offer which is available to everyone.
Let me tell you first about what you can do with the My Memories Suite Software
I guess the most popular way that you can use it is to design and decorate your own photo albums.
You can either create your own pages from scratch or just insert your photos automatically into the designer templates.
You can decorate with an endless selection of embellishments to create your one off photo album. Then you can either print off the pages on your computer or you can have your album made into a professionally-printed and hardbound book. Now this idea I really like for creating some memorable photo albums and will definitely be trying that as soon as I can find time to sort my photographs. There is lots more you can do too and I really haven’t had time to explore it thoroughly, but if you would like to see more then take a look at this My Memories You Tube Video.
But the reason I particularly like it is that I am able to design my own photo images (as with the tortoises above) to create more exciting visual pages for my blog. So, for those of you that have blogs, you will love it! You will notice me using it lots more in future posts on my blog.
All you need to do to take part in the Giveaway is to take a look at the My Memories Digital Scrapbooking Kits and leave a comment below to tell me which is your favourite kit and why. You have until Wednesday evening (2nd October) at midnight to enter and I will announce the winner on Thursday. Entry is now closed.
However, if you are not lucky enough to win and you just have to have this software then you can go to My Memories Suite to order and if you add my promotional code STMMMS51106 you will receive a $10 discount on your purchase plus a $10 discount coupon on downloads. This promotional code will remain valid after the Giveaway, in case you want to wait to see if you are the lucky winner first.
Good luck in the Giveaway!

I like the Faith Based kit –
Why do I like it – Because it reminds me of the things most important in life-Love, prayer, faith, devotion….
& that reminds me of my family & all of those people who mean the most to me – And who else would be in my digital scrap book? It’s a perfect combination

What a hard choice but I’m drawn to Little Hamlet. Being totally novice to scrapbooking, I thing I could actually produce a page or two with this design. Thanks For the chance. Jane

I echo Jane’s comment about being hard to choose, but I would have to say I think I am most drawn to the Legacy Generations kit. I have been looking into my family tree and have managed to get back to the 1480′s! This means I have A LOT of information and have been looking for an interesting way to display it – this may be the answer!

Thats sooo not fair, How am I suppose to pick just one – couldnt I pick – oh I dont know – maybe a dozen or so favourites…If I have to pick one only, then I would pick the Legacy Generation Quick Pages because in 20 weeks I will be a first time grandma and to keep a record like this of our family and grandchilds life sounds absolutely brilliant. Great website..thanks for the opportunity to win and pressie….Not to mention this would also make my blog look sooo pretty…

OOh another chance to win this software… I’d love to replace my Photoshop with this …. I just don’t want to spend the time it needs to really learn Photoshop. So, my favorite kit is Falling into Autumn. I’ve enjoyed poking around the web site to see what they have. So, I hope I win! B.

Pleasant Surprise is my favourite (today). It could take days looking at each beautiful kit. I have some recent birthday pics that would go perfectly with Pleasant Surprise I think.

There are just too many to pick a favorite but the one I could use most right now is the “with this ring” pack. My son got married this past Summer and this would be perfect!

After having fun looking through the different kits, my favorite is the Family Album Template because I’ve been designated ‘keeper of the family photos’ and need to start creating albums for our three children. Looks like a great way to do that! Thanks for the chance!!!

Love the Grandma’s Quilt kit. I’ve recently started quilting although I grew up watching my mom and her friends quilt. I’ve made a quilt titled “Here There Be Dragons” for oldest grandson and am completing a cowboy quilt for newest 7 month old grandson. Hope I win.
