New Year, New Software Givaway

2 01 2012

Whats your favourite new thing that you want to do this year?

For me, its going to be the year that I achieve my weight loss goal (yes, I know, you are going to hear a lot about this in the next few months!)

 

This lovely page was made by Ann with my New Year New Me Kit

 

But if this is the year that you want to finally do something with all your precious photographs then you are in the right place…….

BEACAUSE  I am GIVING AWAY a copy of  MY MEMORIES SUITE V3  software on 16TH JANUARY.

 

The software is the world’s favourite digital scrapbooking software and its so user friendly and easy to learn that you will be producing masterpieces within days.  It’s really intuitive – no steep learning curve like Photoshop – just download it, open it up and you’re off.

 

Why digiscrap you might ask – and you wouldn’t be the first

  • well, all the cool kids are doing it!
  • theres no mess to clear up
  • you get to use all your supplies time and time again
  • the digiscrap world is full of gorgeous inspiration, oh, and freebies!!!

if you really needed any more reason check out Digiscrappin with Jen for a whole list of reasons!

 

How to Enter:

To be in with a chance of winning you simply have to leave a comment on this blog post.  To double your chances follow my blog and to tripple them like my CatDesignz Facebook Page and post a comment on there about this givaway and you’ll have 3 entries.

Good luck and please tell all your friends who are interested in digi scrapping

 

And talking of givaways here is a freebie to get you started off with your digital supplies.

 Download the freebie here

 

It’s a png file so its suitable to use within any graphics programme not just My memories Suite v3.   And yes, it’s a new format – I mostly scrap in 12 by 12 so this is a diversion for me.  It’s so easy to just drop your photo in though  especially within My Memories Suite.  Have a look at the finished version which took me less than 30 seconds just to add the date and place details

 

 

You will find other freebies here from time to time so its really worth following if you want to start or add to your digital stash.

So, don’t forget to add a comment to this blog post then follow this blog and finally hop over to CatDesignz FB page, like it and add a comment there.  The lucky winner will be announced here on the blog after entries close on 16th January.

By the way, all the pages featured in this post were made with my kits and/or using My Memories Suite v3 software

If you are wanting to add a header to your FB timeline its perfect for doing that…..

or maybe you want to build your own blog header – Celeste from my Creative team did that using one of my kits Purple Heart (though rumour has it she’s about to update it with a little birthday gift I made for her!)  You can see it at Celestes blog Touched by a Butterfly where you can catch up on all her wonderful paper crafting – have a look at her forthcoming blog hop while you are there.

 

 

I just spent the last few days making new kits and wordarts which will all be in store at My Memories soon so I’ll let you know about them as they become available.  In the meantime heres a perfect one for capturing all those new year images, its my Celebration Wordart

 

 

Thats all for today folks, happy scrapping and good luck with the competition





I’m back on line, yay! & Wicked Wednesday Givaway part 4

2 11 2011

mmmmm, I may have spoken too soon, every time I try and save a draft of this blog I am being booted out without a save……

The autosave function seems not to be working and the mobile dongle sent me by my ISP  (or non provider in the case of Sky) is really unstable and drops out without any warning – the link that is not the dongle….

So, I’m saving this every sentence to try and get it published but its painfully slow.

Still no sign of the modem that sky were promising to send out last Thursday, that could be because they’ve not sent it of course.  According to my latest contact it will now be ANOTHER 3 – 5 working days before it arrives.  I am not holding my breath

Its enough to make me resort to chocolate, but I won’t ‘cos I’ve now lost a total of 25.5lb and I will absolutely not let Sky’s incompetence knock me off track.

So now I can get on line I can see that my 2 Christmas mini Tags & stickers kits are available in store over at My Memories

Oh heck, every time I try and save a picture or a link the whole post is cleared – looks like I am going to have to go to McDonalds again to post this blog for you…….

 

Web_preview

The kits make perfect centre pieces for seasonal cards and invites or just cute little additions to your Christmas and holiday layouts

You know, I’ve been so upset over this whole internet outage that I could have done with some real cheering  up

Web_preview

so, in the hopes that there is someone out there who could do with a good dose of pre Christmas  cheering up……….. I am going to give you not 1 freebie  but 2 freebies this week.

Both are double page spreads, perfectly matched and you can either use the complete pages or the individual elements.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Heres the first one

DOWNLOAD HERE

 

and the second freebie

Hope you enjoy using them

My car was rear ended today….

28 09 2011

not a good start to the morning.  We were just at the roundabout nearest the hospital where hubby had an appointment.  I stopped to give way to the oncoming traffic.  Sadly the car behind me didn’t.

I’m basically OK aside from a massive headache and various minor aches and pains but the car is a real mess.

So I was just too shaken up and weepy to go to work and have been dozing most of the day.

Anyway, even though its beensuch  a rotten day I decided to share some love and give away one of my wordart kits for a verrry limited time.

I chose my Mommy Dearest kit which I designed specially for my own Mum who celebrates her 80th birthday next month.

Made for my own dear Mum

To get it jump over to My Memories and add it to your cart.

Please don’t delay as come October it will revert back to full price.

Here is the matching template kit so you can see how it looks in a LO – of course you don’t have to use it full size, it looks just as good smaller

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

Incidentally the best way to find out about my freebies is to subscribe to this blog and to *like* my Catdesignz Facebook page – thats where you’ll learn about all my future freebies.

Thats all for now – just spent an exhausting hour on the phone to my insurers so I am in need of a nice cup of tea – or possibly something a little stronger!
