Here are some of the questions?

I can buy digital life book software from lots of companies, how is Creative Memories different?Creative memories has personal consultants that will come to your home and show you how the software works and help you to build your first book. We also have a great customer support line that will help you.

What could I use this software for, is it just for books?

You can make books, invitations, full page scrapbook pages that can be framed. For example, you can have a team photograph printed to 12 x 12 and put in one of our “Page Frames”, on the cutout mat you could have everyone autograph it, also great for weddings, golden wedding anniversaries. Or for other great ideas go to our Design team page.

I am too busy to make a scrapbook, do you have a product that I can store my photos and they will still look great?

If traditional scrapbooking does not fit your lifestyle, we have a great product called Picfolio Albums. They are photo albums that have three landscape and 2 portrait photo sleeves on each page, all you do is slip your photo in and write on the journal entry card and you are all done. The journal entry cards come in all sorts of colors to make your book colorful and fun!! They come in different sizes from as small as 2 xx 3 mini, 11 x 14, 8 x 8 up to a 12 x 12 max book

Do you have home parties where I can get something for holding the party?

Creative Memories is probably one of the most generous companies when it comes to hostess gifts. We have specials every month. Check out February for instance. When your event sales reach $250 or more, you’ll receive 15 percent of the total sales in Host Rewards (free products for you!) is just the start.

Is the software expensive?

You actually have a choice of downloading the free version or the full version. The free version is very good, but if you want to move things around, customize pages and add and take away things you are best to buy the full version. We have two bits of software that we offer you. There is Storybook Creator Plus which you use to build your book in, then there is Memory Manager. What Memory Manager does is organizes your photos using virtual sort boxes, and also organizes and stores videos and audio clips. We offer both software as a bundle to save money for $94.00 plus tax. Or you can just buy the storybook software on its own.

I have a digital camera and a computer, how hard is it to learn how to make a book I am a total newbie?

I have a computer training background and I use the K.I.S.S. formula (stands for Keep it simple stupid) If you know how to use word, or do an email I can teach you how to use this software. I will also tell you how to store your photos safely, and some great tips on how to get the best photo.

Would you teach a group? My daughter is getting married and she would like the wedding party involved in making a book.

Of course, the more the merrier. Weddings can be stressful and a digital life book would be a great gift to give to the bride. Take photos at the wedding and present her with a book afterwards.

I want to take the stress out of your life by providing solutions for your photo problems. I can help you organize them, find a product that will suit your lifestyle and time that you have available. I can give you great gift ideas.

I will help you tell your story ~ your way

Now while we are on the topic of personal touch. I am surprised that more people do not know about Creative Memories. I am a consultant for this company and I love it. I go to customers homes and install the Creative Memories software on their home computers and show them how to use it. When was the last time you bought software and called customer support and was put on hold or someone talked over your head and you walked away sooo confused. Several years ago I ran a small home based computer training business. I got calls from newbies, seniors and handicapped who were not comfortable going to group classes. I made a training program just for them and my business grew very quickly due to word of mouth. When I moved, I missed doing computer training. But one day I saw someone doing a demonstration on CITY TV. I contacted this girl right away and got into this business right away. Now I am combining my love for digital scrapbooking with my training background. People are LOVING it. I hold home parties and show customers how to make digital scrapbooks for special occassions or for upcoming events like weddings and babies.

So for those who are just getting into the world of digital scrapbooks I have some tips for you and share a horror story as well. About six months ago I was having problems with my computer, I had a company come to my house, fiddled and played and said don’t worry and they left. Two days later my hard drive crashed!! what do I do?? It was too late to get back in touch with this company, so now I was faced with the problem that many of you have had “What do I do when my hard drive crashes??” (more…)

So what are you waiting for? This is the kind of gift you can not find in a store, it is personalized, it is YOUR STORY

Have your friends got hundreds of photos collecting dust in old shoe boxes? Do they have a big celebration coming up soon? Is someone getting married, having a baby, celebrating a Golden Wedding anniversary, or do you know someone who loves genealogy. Then this product is for you. Not only can you collect all of these photos and make some beautiful themed pages, but you can order a stitched book to give them to celebrate the special day.

Are you a photographer? If you are not using this software, your customers will start looking for a photographer that is. The software is THAT great! Use the software for your brides, baby albums, or even your portfolio. Once customers see your book they will want to order one for themselves.

I also made the same kind of book for our daughter, this time there was software that you could buy to make fancy pages.  I had a lot of fun choosing backgrounds finding special photos and putting the book together.  Our daughter got married last year, 2006 and a lot of family travelled from England for the wedding. Weddings are such special occassions and a great time to get photos of all the family especially the ones that had travelled so far.  I will post some of the highlights of the book on here (as soon as I get my scanner fixed) I customized thank you books for the bridesmaids and groomsmen as well as for the grandparents.  But weddings are only one of the many thousands of ideas for making a special book.
