I was recently given the opportunity to review My Memories Suite digital scrapbooking software. I downloaded the software (super easy, and it is available for both PC and Mac) and started to play.
As you probably know, I haven't done digital scrapbooking before. I do make collages and I do a lot of digital design work, but I hadn't ventured too much further than that. Well, after trying out this software, I will definitely be doing more scrapbooking in the digital format. I like the flexibility with papers and embellishments, and that you can send your designs off to be printed and bound into a book really easily.
The software is quite user friendly, but there are also lots of tutorials online to help you.
Before I even started designing my layout, I downloaded most of the free kits available on their website. I then combined papers and elements from both the kits and the ones that come in the software already, and created this page:
There is SO much flexibility with the design. You can add word art that you can fill with a pattern, solid color, or even fill with one of the papers! When you add your photos you can crop and rotate them to place behind the frames. Really cool stuff.
I was also interested to find out if you could use My Memories Suite with kits from other companies. You can, and it's super easy. I decided to make a page using papers and embellishments from the Persnickety Prints freebies. Here's what I came up with:
How fun is that?!
