MyMemories Suite Review & Giveaway

Do you enjoy scrapbooking? I do, it's been something I've enjoyed doing since I was about 17. Over the years I have stopped doing it. It can be time consuming, cutting, measuring, gluing, taping, etc. Not to mention that it can get really expensive. They are beautiful treasure's that will be in my family for years to come. Well...hopefully. I just don't have the time money or space these days to scrapbook. With MyMemories I can scrapbook without the mess and for far cheaper. If something comes up, I can easily save what I'm working on and come right back later, without having to pack everything up and then haul it out again. You can create your own pages from scratch or fill pre-made templates with your favorite photos. I love the auto-fill feature. I automatically fills pre-made templates with the pictures I choose. The possibilities are endless, and it's so easy!  I know what your thinking. If I'm scrapbooking digitally from my computer I wont have the psychical copy to hold and look through. (I was thinking the same thing) Well fear not, not only can the scrapbooks that you create be easily shared with friends and family through email and facebook, but they can be printed out. Either from your printer at home or you can have them printed out professionally through MyMemories. 

Alright, let's get into pricing. I promise it's affordable. The MyMemories v3 is $39.97 and comes with a variety of templates and possibilities. MyMemories has provided a coupon code for my followers. 

Use Code: STMMMS50414 and Receive $10 OFF your MyMemories Suite v3 Software AND $10 to spend in the MyMemories Store! Such a great deal. 

 I have been having so much fun playing around and making pages for a new scrapbook. The MyMemories Suite comes with templates, I've used those and found some really great free templates. Here are some of the pages I've made so far. 

 I've been having such a great time building pages and I love that I can save it and come back to it later so easily. I cannot wait to finish my scrapbook and have it printed out and in my hands. So much easier than conventional scrapbooking. 

MyMemorie's is giving away a copy of their MyMemories Suite Software to one lucky Kristy's Place follower! Enter using the Rafflecopter form below.

Golden Earth Review & Giveaway

I'm pretty sure I've said this several times and I'll probably say it several more times because it is so true. I love sample services because they introduce me to companies and products that I may not otherwise have known about. One such company is Golden Earth. I received a sample of Golden Earths Euphoria Perfume in my January Conscious Box. If you've seen the video than you may recall my "oh this smells good" reaction to smelling it for the first time. It smells so good, so natural. The first thing I smelt was the rose, then I could smell my favorite jasmine scent. I found myself reapplying because I loved it so much.

I contacted Golden Earth and told them how much I loved the Euphoria perfume, now I've been lucky enough to be given the opportunity to do a review. I was sent the Body Wash, Body Lotion, & Perfume all in the scent Love. As well as a full size bottle of Euphoria and a Chakra Oil 2 Miracle Energy. Love smells just like fresh jasmine blooms. So nice to smell so good from head to toe. I even apply the perfume before bed, I love the scent so much.

Golden Earth products are made from all natural ingredients and with only, "high quality pure therapeutic grade essential oils".

At golden earth, we create organic aromatherapy lotions, chakra oils, perfumes, and body products that promote wellness for the body, mind and spirit. our natural products are made from the finest natural ingredients from around the world including pure therapeutic grade essential oils, which are aromatic plant extracts and crystal infusions. with each of our aromatherapy and body care products, we continually delight our customers with their own spiritual renewal, physical revitalization, and emotional rejuvenation.

I have been using the Love Moisturizing Body Wash $14 and  Moisturizing Lotion $20 everyday for a week now and I have noticed an improvement in the softness and moisture in my skin as well as a general improved mood. Who knew? Well, not this girl. While I've heard of all the benefits of essential and aromatherapy oils I've never used them.  I not only smell great, but I feel it too. As well as naturally scented body wash and lotion. Golden Earth offers 7 different Chakra Oils $24 and Lotions made to promote wellness for mind, body and soul. The Chakra 2 I was sent is another Jasmine smell, there are of course other scents, but I mentioned my love of Jasmine. It is said  " an in-balance sacral chakra promotes creativity, grace, sensuality, procreation, and sensuality". I'm definitely getting the increased creativity.

  One of the things that I really like about the perfumes is that while you can smell them, they are light scents. They are not going to be giving you or the people around you a headache. Not to mention, have you ever thought about the ingredients in conventional perfumes? Yuck. I feel good about putting Golden Earths products on my body, because they are all natural and made from the earth. Not in a lab somewhere. What goes on your body, goes in your body. Golden Earth Perfumes from Nature are $20 and come in 6 different scents.

There are many different fragrances and Chakra Oils for mind and body wellness as well as unscented.You can find Golden Earth on their website, Facebook, and Twitter.

Golden Earth is Giving Away a Moisturizing Body Wash, Moisture Lotion, and one Perfume from Nature to One Lucky Follower!!
