My Memories Suite v.3 Software Review and Give-away!

I was given by My Memories the opportunity to use My Memories Suite v.3 software. I was so excited when I got it that I used it right away! Check out My Memories. They really do offer a lot with their digital scrapbooking software. You will learn a little bit about what I am talking about as I go through the review. So let's get started!  Oh, and make sure to get in on the give-away which is after the review!

Like most anything that you download it will take a few minutes.  You get a step by step so it's easy. Once it downloads - let the fun begin!

This software is easy to use.


On the above page I chose the  Design Your Own option that My Memories Suite v.3 software offers.  You get to choose the album shape and size.  I picked the background, then a photo layout from about 80 choices!
I snipped a photo layout sample page:

The possibilities are endless!  My Memories has digital scrapbooking kits to buy.  As I write this they have 29 FREE combo packs!  Here is one that caught my eye (although not free) that will come in handy with some old pictures I have:




You can even use outside content you have on your computer.


My Memories Suite v.3 software has an interaction album option.  Meaning full user interaction, ie, links to websites, other files and multimedia elements like music and movies.  It can be burned onto CD-R or DVD-R discs and viewed on other computers.  There is also the option of having it bound which can be done anywhere that does that sort of thing.


I decided that I wanted to do an actual album with music to show you, when I tried to put it on a blog (members only one I am on) I was having trouble getting it to work.  The first thing I did, like always with anything having to do with the computer, I asked my hubby for some help and he suggested I see how helpful My Memories would be when a question is asked.  I did just that and got a reply within 24 hours and the info was what I needed to make it work.  So I experienced some great customer service!







I burned my album to a DVD and it was super easy.  It is easy to read what I wrote on each page.  Putting it into a movie that will fit on my blog makes it so you cannot read what's on each page.
So there you have it, my review of  My Memories Suite v.3 software.  I am looking forward to using My Memories Suite v.3 in the future.


Now on to the give-away...

The give-away has a $39.97 value.  If you win you will get the My Memories Suite v. 3 software to download!  Woohoo!  I will give you the promo code to use to get your free software.  Ok, so here is how you enter the give-away:
 Go to My Memories and from the digital scrapbooking kits tell me which you like the most.  That is one entry.
Another entry is to go to their Facebook page and like it, then come back here and let me know you did.
Follow My Memories on twitter for another entry.  Come back here and let me know you did.  That makes up to 3 entries you can submit for this give-away.  We will draw a winner on Saturday at 10pm Eastern Standard Time.


So you are thinking how bummed you will be if you don't win...fear not...here is a promo code to get a whopping $10 off when you purchase My Memories software.  That's right your price will be $29.97.  How cool is that!  And wait, you will also get a $10 coupon for the MyMemories.com store, a $20 total value!  Here is the code:

STMMMS68774

I need to mention that  I was given this software to review and will be compensated when the promo code is used.  I truly love this software and will be able to get some scrapbooking done that had been put on the back burner because of limited space!



I am going to end with another page I made using My Memories.
