Digital Scrapbooking made easy! Create 1 album using your digital photos, videos, scanned images, music and recorded narration and share it many ways -like photo books, DVDs, interactive CDs, movies to email or post on a blog or print at home.
Memories, most often sparked by a photo are priceless. However, photos are one of the most common items grown children fight over. Who gets them and why? Should they be divided and how? What about the family photo albums that mom lovingly made, or what about the album that she made telling her own life story?
Tammy’s story is one of the best examples we can share.
We hope you will find it as inspiring as we have. Several years ago she was given her mother-in-law’s life story meticulously put together in a 3 ring binder. It was beautiful inside and out, and the story that was neatly tucked inside was heartwarming. However it tugged at her heart strings as she thought about the other siblings that weren’t as lucky. Then a beautiful idea was born. She carefully took each page out and scanned it. Then using one of the Photo Layout Templates she created a MemoryMixer album using the auto-fill feature. She tweaked a few pages and then the magic happened. She had 9 copies of the album printed and gave 6 of them to her mother-in-law for Mother’s Day and kept the remaining 3 for her own children. She cried as she opened and looked at the beautiful books... and so thoughtful Tammy gave her all of the copies so she, herself could give them to her other children. Tammy has now printed Volume II and getting ready to do her father-in-law’s book. Now everyone can have a copy of the priceless memories and photos.

Donna and Terri became friends at MixinMania a few years ago. They haven’t met in person yet, but they have enjoyed their friendship through MemoryMixer sharing ideas and helpful hints including their latest project, getting their MemoryMixer Content Organized so they could easily find what they were looking for. Terri had already started and inspired Donna to do the same. They have both completed their organizing task and wrote to us sharing their excitement and ideas. They have given us permission to share them with you.
1. Create Printouts of Digital Content
They came up with the idea:
Create a new album for every embellishment, paper pack, Quick Mix, or project pack, and print it off on paper, with identifying information on each page as to where to find the item in each section of the Memory Mixer file trees. The end result was a catalog that provided photos of the various products in our Memory Mixer software – they shared “we were smitten with happiness to have conquered that challenge to make our Memory Mixer experience more organized!”
Both projects turned out a bit different. Donna printed her themed packs onto colored paper at a local print shop. Terri wanted a little more flexibility in organization and was looking for the most cost effective method of printing, so she created her pages on 4 x 6 prints that she sent to Costco for processing. She then purchased fancy binders and clear sheet protectors with various sized pockets.
Organize Printouts in a binder by category.
Their categories included:
Embellishments
Quick Mixes
Labels and Swirls
One Page QM
Alphabets
Paper Packs
Easter, Halloween and Christmas
Borders and Clusters
Specialty Pages
Paper Packs
3. They also have created an excel spread sheet listing their digital content. More information to come....
They are both excited to have finished their projects. Now they can easily browse their designs before sitting down to the computer and plan their upcoming photo projects!
Thank you Donna & Terri for sharing your ideas with us.

One of my favorite traditions around Halloween is the Neighborhood Ghost that secretly delivers goodies. You leave a plate of treats, copy of the ghost for them to hang in their window and a copy of the poem I have created a new
spook this year using MemoryMixer and designs from Annette. I used the portrait page orientation so it's easy to print it
at home.
If you aren't familiar with this, it is a great way to get to know
neighbors and have fun along the way and with this new You've Been Boo'd QuickMix...it's even easier.
