100 posts and a My Memories Giveaway .....

Hi friends, How have you been ? Guess, this is the longest I have stayed away from blogger so far... My sincere apologies... !! ... Well, I have completed 100 posts so far, and I am back for good to celebrate this milestone with a Giveaway ... ;-) ;-) .... !! This time I have My Memories Suite,  a $40 worth digital scrapbooking software   for the giveaway.

I have tried their software out and it so easy - The software enables you to finish the work in no time... !! All you have to do is select the layout, drag and drop the photos - They fit themselves perfectly well within the layout. There is no need to adjust the photos width and height which makes the work much easier. Also, there are tons of backgrounds, embellishments that you can choose and  be creative - I love their scroll flourishes and their painting photo effects which I have used in the pictures seen below. 
Just visit the videos here to know more about this software.
