Birthday & Scrapbooking

As I mentioned recently - my son turned 7 (not sure how that happened!). He wanted a science party so we did our best to accommodate him.

We had some pre-party sports (to run off all that energy 6 & 7 year olds tend to have)

We made gliders, lava lamps, foam, slime, and lots of other chemical reactions.

For the finale...

We showed them the ever popular Diet Coke and Mentos! They really thought that was too cool!!!

Now I was fortunate as I handed off my camera to my sister and she snapped away. One thing of the things great about digital cameras is the ability to delete your mistakes! But if you're like me actually printing those pictures is way down on your list. I like that I can just email prints to family & friends or post on Facebook, but that doesn't help me with scrapbooking. See back in the day I was a scrapbooking fool! Those would be back in the day before kids!

Anyway - if you're like me and a little skeptical of digital scrapbooking do I have an offer and gift for you. I am hosting a giveaway of MyMemories Digital Scrapbooking software (a $39.97 value). You must enter by Sunday, December 18th at 7:00 pm central time.

Here's the gift I mentioned...when you purchase a copy (available as both a digital download and CD version) of My Memories Suite Digital Scrapbooking Software and use the promo code STMMMS47642 you will receive $10 off the cost of the software (retail $39.97) AND $10 to spend in their digital store. This is a great deal! I think you’ll like it! It's very easy to use. You can choose to add embellishments or not. You can choose to add text or not...it's all up to you! And if you're more of a card maker - they can help with that too! The possibilities are great! I'll post some of my pages in a future blog so look for that!
