CRAFT Challenge 200 - 28th of March – Mother's Day/Female

Morning All!

Time for our next challenge here at CRAFT Challenge. This week we would like you to make a project bearing the below brief in mind

Mothers' Day/Female

So, anything bearing the above in mind will qualify. We can't wait to see what you come up with. Mothers' Day is being celebrated at different times over the world, but in the UK it has already gone passed. Female is therefore the alternative, also for those who do not need any Mothers' Day cards.

It is also challenge 200 and to celebrate this, we also will have a prize for our Top3 this week.

Here are my creations for this week, hope you like them. Don't forget there will be freebies on my digistamp blog every Thursday and Friday and every first Monday of the month with an attached challenge as well.

My first experience of My Memories Suite v4

Hello everyone,

Please bear with me on this one. I have considered getting this software for a while, but was unsure if it would be something for me. I am not someone who does scrapbooking usually. I prefer cardmaking, creating digistamps, papers, card kits etc, but thought I would give it a go and see where it would lead.

The good news is that you will be able to get this software as well and that with a $10 discount, no less. To get this, all you need to do is go to My Memories.com, click on the Software banner on top and click on MyMemories Suite. That will take you to its page and you can then add it to your cart. Before checking out, add my code to the

Enter Coupon/Promo Code (optional): 

Promotions will be applied on the Payment Confirmation step.

bit on the page. The code you will need for that is

STMMMS18943

Just copy (CTRL-C) and paste (CTRL-V) this code in the box and it will take you there. This unique code is ONLY good for MyMemories Suite v4.

As I said, I'm still getting used to this software, but there are lots of add on packs you can download for free to go with the software and to get you going.

They also have a My Memories blog and challenges on the go there as well. 

They have a freebie for this week's challenge and you are supposed to use papers and embellishments from this pack only.

I have been informed that you can do much more than scrapbooking with this software, this is something I will need to try out at a later stage. 

As I said, I don't do scrapbooking as a rule, but here is a page I made quickly using this software. The pictures were made at a local zoo where we went for my daughter's birthday party. I hope you like it. Don't forget you can get this software for yourself as well with a $10 discount. Just use my code earlier in this post.

Once I get used to this software well enough, I will try to create something with this for a regular section, likely to be named 'My Memories Monday'.

Thanks for looking, all comments very welcome and much appreciated.

Love,

Jo.
