Tutorial – Changing Gradient Color

Several of you have asked how to recolor a gradient wordart, so today I have a little tutorial for you. 

Begin by adding a wordart box to your page. Next scroll down to the fill option and click on the color box. This box will appear a gradient grey color.

After you click on the gradient box, another box will pop up that will allow you to select the color change options.  When the box pops up, click on the small white box in the left hand corner of this box,

When you click on the small white box, you will notice that color box will change  to white.  You will then click on the color box to get to the color palette.

Hope that helps!

Have you checked out our forum lately?

We are working hard to grow the suitegal forum as a great resource for all of our MMS users.  This week we want to welcome Jessica Creedon and Shawna Snowdon to our team.  These two ladies are going to help Lisa and I moderate the suitegal forum.  As part of our additions we are also going to be providing daily scrap challenges on the forum to help inspire you to have a little fun with a scrap page today!

If you haven't had the chance to check out the gallery in the forum, you can see what our MMS scrappers have been doing.  Get inspired, and then post your own!  There's room for everyone!

Happy Scrapping,

Welcome Mamabuzz readers!

If you are new to My Memories Suite or the idea of digital scrap booking, you are looking in the right place.  This hobby is one of the best ever!  You can record your history, your recent memories or your future memories in no time at all.

Two years ago I bought My Memories Suite.  I started using it and it was so simple to use.  Very little learning curve at all. I love scrapping with MMS because I can quickly scrap beautiful pages, learning the software took me no time at all, and I can be creative daily without making a big mess in my house.  Here are a few pages I have been working on recently.


I made this great page with the Earth Day Quickpages from Shabby Miss Jenn's.

 
 Love the hopscotch kit from Shabby Miss Princess that I used on this page.

I scrapped these entirely on My Memories Suite. I haven't ever scrapped with any other program.  I do use Photoshop Elements to edit photos, and I love Photoscape for editing photos, but when I want to scrap I always turn to My Memories Suite.  I don't have to think to scrap, and when I need to relax, I don't want to think - KWIM?


Here's a little freebie for you today to help you as you get started digital scrapping.
