Meet this week's Featured Designer!! It's Mandy King!! Great sale and giveaway!


Good morning and Happy Monday!! It's time to introduce... or *re-introduce* you to another amazing MyMemories Designer!  This week, I am super excited to introduce you to Mandy King!! Mandy has TONS of AMAZING kits, and collections in her shop at MyMemories.com.  Be sure to check them out this week - she's having a 40% off SALE (use PROMO CODE: MK40off at checkout for your discount)!  

Here are some fun things she'd like you to know about her:

I live in the Cincinnati, OH area with my husband, who is a professor and our four children, Emma, Annabelle, Simon and Eli.  I taught sixth grade (and loved it) before staying home with my babies (who aren’t babies anymore!).  My kids are each allowed to do one activity per season, but with four of them, we keep busy!  Fall finds us on the soccer fields, winter is basketball season and they diverge in the spring…my boys play baseball (the season that lasts FOREVER) and the girls play soccer again.  We are big movie watchers and have a vast collection of them that continues to grow with each holiday/birthday!  I volunteer in the schools and am active in our church, teaching Sunday School and participating in the drama/outreach program.
I started paper scrapping before having children (and will often joke that scrapbooking is WHY I had them) but once I discovered digital in 2005, I was obsessed!  I had always messed around with graphics, starting with Print Master - and when I realized that PNG files existed, it was a dream come true!  I knew I wanted to design right away, but having four kids in under five years made that a little challenging!  So I read every tutorial I could get my hands on and finally, when my youngest turned one, I began selling.  Now, over five years later, I’m very pleased to be selling here at My Memories!
My inspiration is found in the little things from everyday living…my kids’ smiles, the books we read, the funny, quirky things they say…even from their messy rooms!  When I think back to my own childhood, I remember the big events, but wish my mother had kept a scrapbook of those types of daily things.  That’s what I try to capture in my designs…the ups and downs of each day!
That’s exactly WHY we scrapbook…to capture and pass on memories in a beautiful way.  And in doing so, we pour our heart, soul and time into it, showing our family and friends how important we think their lives are.  What an honor it is for me to have my designs be a part of your memories!

And Mandy will be giving away THREE of her cool new collections this week on the MyMemories Facebook page, so check that out!  Leave a comment here and tell her YOUR favorite kit - we'll be back next week with some fun news for a Lucky Duck!!  So check out these and ALL Mandy's awesome goodies!



And if you are in Ohio and want to meet Mandy in person... join me, her, Maggie Buckley of MagsGraphics and Shannon of Dragonfly Studios for our fun OHIO WORKSHOP (there's still time to sign up!)

I'm Lori aka Sparky from Kreations by Sparky.  I am a daughter, sister, wife, mother, aunt, great aunt, and the most PROUD grandma you will ever meet!  I have 2 wonderful sons and 3 angelic grandchildren with another one due in September.  Oh and "they" say I'm am turning 50 this Tuesday, will see, I'll show "them" and only turn 49 again!

I started digital scrapbooking in 2005, I kinda just stumbled into the digital scrapbooking scene by mistake, I had received PSP X and enjoyed creating with it so much that I wanted to find something to do with everything I had created.

Good morning and Happy Monday and Happy Memorial Day!  Today we celebrate many things in our great country.  We also remember many things and take time to honor the lives of the brave men and women who have given their lives in service to our country.  As we spend time with our families today - take time to remember them and honor their sacrifice!

Today - I also introduce you to a wonderful long-time Designer with the MyMemories family!  It's Jennifer from *Word Art World*!  Jennifer's goodies have been included in many of my personal projects - the phrase "she has a way with words" is an UNDERSTATEMENT when it comes to her word art!  Enjoy 40% her WHOLE SHOP this week as we celebrate with her!  USE PROMO CODE: WAW40Feature to save 40% on ANY *Word Art World* Design shop goodies!  Here are some fun things she'd like you to know about her:

I am a SAHM of three beautiful children and the happy wife of a wonderful man, who serves in the military. I am from Utah, originally, but have lived in Ohio, Japan, Arizona and now Texas.
I enjoy drawing, painting, reading, playing the piano, going for bike rides with my family, hanging out with good friends, watching good movies, watching The Office, Arrested Development &The Big Bang Theory with my husband, and playing games with my kids.
About four years ago, my friend told me about digital scrapbooking and encouraged me to purchase Photoshop Elements.  It took me a year to get up the courage to open up the program and learn how to use it.  The rest is history!  I quickly realized how fun digital scrapbooking can be and began designing almost immediately.  I absolutely love creating digital designs that others can use in their personal scrapbooking, and hope to be able to continue to do it for many years to come!

Be sure to check out these and ALL the amazing kits she has in her shop!!

Meet this week's Featured Designer! It's *Crazy-4-Monograms*!!


Good morning and Happy Monday Suite Peeps!  It's time to share another of the AMAZING Designers at MyMemories.com with you! This week, I am super excited to introduce (or re-introduce) you to Mistyblue Allen from "Crazy-4-Monograms"!  She has some awesome goodies in her shop at MyMemories.com and this week, they are ALL on sale!! Just use PROMO CODE: Crazy30Feature to save 30% on any goodies in the C-4-M shop!  Here are some fun things that Mistyblue would like you to know about her:

My real name is Mistyblue Allen. I am a 34 year old stay at home mom of two boys 10 and 3.I lived in Japan for 12 years and worked for Ibaraki University as an assistant to the professor there. I spent a lot of my free time on the computer playing in Photoshop back when it was version 3 LOL, but went on maternity leave and when I was pregnant with my first son I started getting ideas about what to do with the pictures that I would be taking soon as he came along. I had never even heard of scrapbooking back then. But the idea of just plopping pictures into a plain picutre book just seemed so boring to me. So I got online and started looking for ideas to decorate a picture book and came across scrapbooking. Where I lived (very remote countryside) there were no scrapbooking stores or crafts stores that carries scrapbooking items. I started trying to make stuff just using construction paper to see if i could duplicate this or that and it was so much fun that I was on a niche from there. Eventually I started to order things from overseas on ebay and soon had a massive stash. Being that I had a boy I wanted a try at girly stuff. Though the finished stuff was nothing I could use and didnt know anyone over there who was into scrapbooking so I figured I would throw them up on ebay for a buck just so someone could put em to use. These were handmade monograms that I made and what blew my mind was that they not only sold fast but there were bidding wars going for them and requests for more and complete sets. They were fun to make and it would pay for my hobby so I started a little ebay thing for the next 5 years or so till I returned to the US. I had come across digital scrapbooking here and there but the idea never appealed to me as I enjoyed working with my hands too much yet one of the peeves I had was never being able to find what I needed when I needed it. The right elements but the wrong color and so on. I always thought how great would it be if I could just make the stuff myself. At one point a customer from Brazil wanted me to do a few digital projects for her. These were the first monograms to be digitally done. This first file took me almost 4 hours to do. But I was so impressed with how it turned out that I was rather hooked on the challenge. It wasn’t  long after that that I completely tossed out the whole paper scrapping. I couldn’t imagine going into that any longer when I could make anything I needed and not have any supply cost. It was awesome! The freedom to create anything you can imagine was perfect for me. I ended up donating everything I had (1000s worth the stuff) to the local childrens hospital craft program since I had not used anything of it in over a year. Dont miss it. Hooked on digi! What I love most about the digital world is the people. I work with so many amazing gals. Karen at Snickerdoodles and Katie at Just So Scrappy have been so dear to me. We met up in Vegas for the digiscrapalooza a few years back and we had become such good friends that we hung out as if we did it ever weekend. Amazing gals in this industry. It really restores your faith in people and the goodness still out there.


Here's just a *FEW* of the amazing goodies you will find in her shop - check them ALL out!



Be sure to comment below and tell her YOUR favorite kit!  She is giving away a fun little goodies to TEN LUCKY DUCKS!! So... comment below to enter today!! Winners posted next Monday here on the MyMemories blog!
