Digital Scrapbooking with My Memories Suite

I like preserving photos in scrapbooks and photo books. When I came across My Memories Suite, a digital scrapbooking software, I was very interested in all that it could do. It enables you to create with your computer a scrapbook. You can keep your scrapbook in digital form on your computer. You can print out a scrapbook at home or at a photo print center. You can order a professionally printed photo book. You can make greeting cards from your pages. You can create a special calendar. You can create an interactive video presentation. You can save it onto a DVD to play on your TV or computer.
With My Memories Suite you can make a wonderful personalized gift. A photo book or a DVD would make a wonderful gift for Christmas, birthdays, Mother's Day, Father's Day, weddings, graduations, or any other special occasion. The software would make a wonderful gift in and of itself too.
I am impressed with the number of backgrounds and embellishments you can use with this software. The program comes with a basic set of backgrounds and embellishments to work with. You can download many more options. Some are free. Most are just a few dollars. You can also use your own embellishments that you have created or downloaded elsewhere. I love the drop shadow option. The matting option is easy to use too.
When creating a book you can choose to upload photos and add short captions or to write your story and add interesting photos. There are so many options that you will truly be creating a unique book. You may create a book for yourself and then decide to make additional copies as gifts for other family members. Gifts that bring back memories are gifts that will be treasured and cherished.
If you created a book about your parents, you could give a copy of the book to your brothers and sisters, to your parents, to your children, to your grandchildren and to your aunts and uncles and grandparents.
If you have a son involved in sports and you've taken lots of photos of the games, you might make a memory book for your son and you could make extra copies for his teammates. If you have lots of photos of your daughter performing in a dance recital, you could make a book for her
and then share extra copies with others who were in the recital. Photos from a wedding could be made into a book and given to the bride and groom with extra copies being given to family members and other wedding party members. Photos of a couple's life together could be made into a book and presented at their 50th wedding anniversary with extra copies being given to each of their children. You will probably think of many more uses as you work with this program. Your creative side will welcome this opportunity to create wonderful gifts.
