My Memories Monday 3rd of June 2013

Morning all,

Another creation working with My Memories Suite 4. I am starting to find my way around a little better, but it is still early days. This is a little 4x6 I have created with the aim to allow it to be a cardtopper. It uses my new Rhododendron papers as well as a cut out of a rhododendron flower. Feel free to use it for your creations if you like it, but please give credit where credit is due.

My Memories Card Topper 9






Don't forget, you could create things like this yourself with this software, just follow the links to My Memories.com or the one in software or My Memories Suite v4 and by using my code in the discount box on purchasing this software you get a fabulous $10 off this software. That is not to be sneezed at. You can also create your own scrapbook pages, which was what it was initially created for.

In order to get $10 off this great software, copy and paste my code

STMMMS18943

and enter it in the discount slot while purchasing this software. It will take it automatically off the purchase price. It is however only valid for this software and nothing else!






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

Love,



Jo.
