My Memories review added again.

Afternoon all,

Just to let you know I have added a new review on our review page on My Memories Suite 4. I am starting to find my way around a little better, but it is still early days. I have created with the aim to allow it to be a little stamp/sticker for the back of your cards or creations. Feel free to use it for your creations if you like it, but please give credit where credit is due. Just size them to what fits your creation, print of multiple ones of them, cut them out and stick them to your creations. I thought it might add a touch of class to what we so lovingly create.

Don't forget our current challenge at CRAFT Challenge, a colour combo for which you can find backing papers in the challenge post as well as on Jo's digistamp blog, so no reason for you to have to miss out on this challenge!

My Memories 'Handcrafted by' sticker/stamp






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 our code

STMMMS98952

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!
