My Memories Digital Scrapbook ~ Review & Giveaway

Recently I was given the opportunity to review the new My Memories Suite Digital Scrapbooking Software and I am completely hooked!  My Memories is rated the #1 digital scrapbooking software for a reason. It is easy to download, easy to use and you can create beautiful scrapbook pages in minutes! The program also lets you create cards, calendars, gifts and photo books with just the click of the mouse. Simply drag & drop photos, embellishments, backgrounds, and layouts. You can add video, music and narration too!  There are over 1,500 papers, over 1,000 page elements, and over 30 album templates for you to create your very own scrapbook or photo album.
I love how the My Memories scrapbook software can be used for more than just making scrapbook pages, the possibilities are endless! I have had so much fun creating projects using freebies I downloaded from the website. You can customize the size of your album to dollhouse size and print tons of dollhouse projects! I made a cute miniature scrapbook of my miniature dolls, and I have so many project ideas that I can't fit them all into this post!


 I will be adding a free printable version of my mini scrapbook and more free tutorials soon!

I am giving ONE lucky follower the My Memories Suite Scrapbook software to create your own designs!

Updates, Technical Stuff & A Give Away!

Hello everyone! Just a quick post to let you all know that I am still here!  I have been working in the background making preparations for few "design" changes to my website, and I've also been busy with some upcoming tutorials and preparing to have a big give away.
I just finished adding the latest swap photos & two new video tutorials.

Technical Stuff: The "design" change to my website involves moving the website menu from the left side of the website to the top. I don't want to bore you all with the details, this change was necessary. Things might be a little messy for a few days but I should have the majority of the changes made by the end of the week.  I also just recently realized that Google translator is only translating my home page, it doesn't work site wide, so I will be moving the translator to the top of my website so my visitors will have the ability to translate all pages.

The Give Away: I'm not going to say too much about the Give Away, yet....just be sure to watch this space! 

I'll be back tomorrow to post the Dollhouse of the Month for March!

New Dollhouse & Happy New Year!

Happy New Year! I hope the new year finds you all happy and healthy! My year is already starting out great....my grandma gave me her dollhouse a few days after Christmas, along with some furniture and a box of other miniature odds and ends. Grandma just turned 85 years old in December, she built the house around 20 years ago....she doesn't know the name of the dollhouse but it is from Real Good Toys. It's in excellent shape, other than the missing front porch (Grandma gave it away), not a scratch or speck of dust or missing shingle.  Grandma decorated every room in some shade of pink.....bless her heart, pink is my least favorite color but I would like to keep as much of what she did as possible. This is where you guys come in. The pink is throwing me......I don't know what to do, who lives in a huge pink house?

Moving Day!

Hello Everyone!

It's been such a long time since I last posted and so much has happened, I don't know where to start!

I should start by saying hello & welcome to my new followers.

Hello & Welcome!!
I'll have a give away soon to give you all a proper welcome.

I haven't posted in such a long time because I have been moving my web site, My Small Obsession, to a new home on the web. The move has taken much longer than expected but will be worth it in the end!

Please remember, my website address, http://mysmallobsession.com will remain the same so any links to the home page will still work. All other pages are no longer accessible through their individual addresses, so if you are linked to any of those pages you will need to update the link. It will be a few days before everything is up and working properly so please hang in there!

The actual "move" will be taking place over the next 48 hours so it's most likely that my web site will be temporarily disabled during that time. I have added a lot of new pages, information & features, but I'm not finished so you won't be able to see all of the new features right away. I have more to add and will continue through September. I hope to have everything completed before the end of the month.

Thank you all so much for your hanging in there with me!
