Photo Shoot with Flamboyant Media

Hi everyone!

How are you all doing?

I’m good and I’m back with a new blog post after a very long time.

I recently did a photo shoot with the photographer from Flamboyant Media which I am sharing with you all today. How do I look in a saree? My mom had quickly draped it for me. The aanchal part should have been on my left shoulder actually.

The photographer is pretty good in this profession. If you live in Suriname or in Holland and you need a photographer for your wedding, birthday party etc. or just for a photo shoot you’ll know where to be.;) You can view more of his pictures at http://flamboyantmedia.com/

or on facebook at http://www.facebook.com/TheFlamboyantMedia.

Wishing you all a great week ahead!

I am extending my MMS scrapbooking software giveaway till the 28^th of February, so you still have a change to participate at http://www.creative-d-zine.blogspot.com/2012/12/mymemories-suite-v4-scrapbooking.html

Hey everyone!!!

I have something special for you guys today. A few days ago, I was contacted by Liz Gardner from the company My Memories and she offered me a free digital scrapbooking software worth $40 and a FREE GIVEAWAY for my blog visitors! I actually was thinking of a giveaway for my rocking visitors, and like magic I got the perfect gift for you guys sponsored by My Memories. It’s an international giveaway, so everyone from all over the world of any age can participate in this giveaway. The lucky winner will receive the My Memories Suite Version 2.0 digital scrapbooking software for free. You do need to have internet to download and install this software on your PC or Mac. I’ve been thinking of placing a headline banner on my blog for a long time, but because of the daily rush, I didn’t get the chance to create one. Now I can create a banner in a fast and easy way with this software. I’m happy with my gift and excited, cause this is my first giveaway.;)

My Memories Suite Version 2 is Amazon’s #1 rated digital scrapbooking software. You can share your My Memories Suite software through print sharing as well as through multimedia sharing. It’s a great help in creating professional looking cover pages of essays, digital baby books, calendars, cards, etc.  It has some cool features; like you can let the text follow a shape or you can add video and/or sound along with your photo at one page. I haven’t tried out the video and sound feature yet, but I’ll try to post a scrapbook page with video and/or sound out here on my blog sometime. To know more about this software, check out the YouTube video at http://www.youtube.com/user/MyMemoriesSuite.

I had installed this software yesterday on my laptop and had created these scrapbook pages using my younger sister’s pictures first. I’ve replaced those pictures with some view pictures I had taken of the city of Paramaribo and with pictures of two of my favorite Bollywood actresses.:) You can create a digital scrapbook page and use it as many times as you like; the pictures can be changed within seconds.;) I’ve used digital freebies from online as well to create my scrapbook pages.



The rules for the My Memories Suite Version 2.0 giveaway are:

1.      Tell your friends about the free My Memories digital scrapbooking software giveaway on my blog http://creative-d-zine.blogspot.com  through your facebook wall or tweet about it on twitter. You may also follow me on my blog or blog about my giveaway. So you have 4 options from which you can choose one.

2.      My Memories Suite’s online Design Shop offers a growing library of templates, papers, and packs to inspire your creativity. Go to www.MyMemories.com  and tell me in the comment section of this giveaway post which scrapbooking kit or pack you like the most. Leave your first name and your e-mail address in the comment section along with the name of your favorite kit or pack so I can contact you if you are the winner of this giveaway. For example, if you like the 'Vintage Love Quick Pages' kit, write 'Vintage Love Quick Pages' along with first name:... and emailaddress:....

You have the chance to participate till the 9^th of November 2011 12:00 AM EST.  

I’ll announce the winner on the 10^th of November 2011 through my blog.;)

If you’re not lucky this time and you still like to purchase the My Memories Suite Version 2, use the coupon code STMMMS35043 to get a $10 discount on the purchase of the My Memories Suite v2 scrapbooking software from www.MyMemories.com. Software also comes with a $10 coupon for downloads-a total value of $20! Just copy and paste the code to avoid typos when using it.

The holidays are coming soon. So if you have kids at home, I think that this will be the perfect gift for Christmas or New Year for them. This program is so easy that kids as well as professionals can use it to create creative and professional looking scrapbook pages and then print them out if they like to.

I want to thank Liz once again for this sweet giveaway and for my gift as well.;)

Hugs and kisses,

Sharda
