My goodness, lovelies, but I've been busy! This week especially has been particularly insane, bursting at the seams with deadlines and assignments and places to be. I haven't had the time to sit down and paint for a while, and hope that this next week I'll find an hour here and there to sink into the pages of my art journal.
I did, though, create the digital collage above! I used a program called My Memories; it's actually intended for scrapbooking, but the possibilities really are endless, with hundreds of papers, embellishments, textures, shapes, graphics, photo options, and more. And guess what? I'm giving away one free My Memories Suite software package!
(Please note that I turn down quite a few offers for payment for promotion of websites and products because they are not right for this blog. This software is something I truly like and I hope will be fun and inspirational to you as well!)
This software is incredibly simple to use, and offers great control over placement, color, size, shapes, layering, et cetera. It's ranked #1 on Amazon! In addition to creating scrapbook layouts, you can put together photobooks, cards, and calendars to share. I'd also really love to try:
- Printing out a finished "collage" (or several!) and using it in my physical art journal.
- Making custom pages and using them as background collage material in my art.
- Starting a collage on the computer and completing it by hand, adding details and doodles.
- Creating a book and then painting on its pages, using it as an art journal.
Onward – to the giveaway!

This program looks like so much fun! I'm having trouble choosing a single paper pack -- there's so many! But I would definitely go with something autumn-y.
ReplyDeleteThere IS so much to look at and to choose my favourite is pretty much impossible! But I do love the Love Story and the As The Year Grows Old papers, they are lovely!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance to win this fun program!

Oh dear, how I do love digital scrapbooking and journaling. It's a new obsession of mine that I started about a week or so ago. So this came at the perfect time, dear friend. My favorite paper pack (so far, there's so much to look at!) is "soft colors paper".

Giveaways are always so fun! I think it's rather difficult to see what you'd like to play with when there is so much jammed into each layout at their site, but I like the birds and flowers (and pink!) in the "Hey girl" pack they offer.
ReplyDeleteTake care Ingrid!
