FAQs



What program do you use to make your recipe cards?

I use the Creative Memories StoryBook Creator Plus 3.0 software when I'm on my PC laptop. I'm in the process of transitioning over to Creative Memories' sbcStudio software for Macs, and I use that on my Mac desktop. I was a Creative Memories consultant, but I stopped selling after I went back to work and my life got too busy. I used to link to the software directly, but Creative Memories keeps changing the link address and it was confusing people. If you are interested in the software, find a Creative Memories consultant near you. You can do that by going to the Creative Memories website or you can go to this consultant who has a blog with lots of tips for the software.

What size do you print your recipe cards and where do you print them?

I print my recipe cards as 5x7s and I usually upload them to Wal Mart and pick them up there. Sometimes I print at home, but the quality is much better at Wal Mart.

What if upload some of your recipe cards to Wal Mart to be printed, but when I go to pick them up they won't give them to me because I don't have a copyright release?

Wal Mart can be a little copyright crazy, so if this happens just shoot me an e-mail and I'll send a copyright release letter to you. Let them try that mess on me. I'll be all "I am Controlling My Chaos. Give me my ding dang recipe cards!" On second thought, you try that and see what they say. Then e-mail me and tell me all about it. I can't wait.

If I buy the Creative Memories software, do I have to use the Creative Memories artwork and kits?

No. You can use any kits you buy and you can use freebies from the internet. I use a lot of freebies, and I have links to them on my sidebar.

Do you ever sleep?

All. The. Time. I love sleep. In fact, I'm going to bed right now. Night, night.
