Living Legacy Project

A wonderful social networking website has recently launched, and its purpose is to encourage all of us to write our own personal histories, which at first glance seems daunting.  But with questions sent to you every week or month, by the time you answer the writing prompts and are encouraged by your assigned Personal Legacy Advisor, at the end of several years, you will have written your own personal history. 

Sign up for a free shoebox for photo storage.  Once you see the benefits and services of the site, I am certain you will sign up for a vault and share your living legacy with your family and friends.

HeritageMakers

If you click on the URL www.heritagemakers.com/legacyinwords, you will be taken to my website at HeritageMakers.  HeritageMakers is a wonderful site where you may set up a free account.  Having done so, you may then upload your digitized photos for storage and use in creating a myriad of projects that include your photos.  If you join Club, you will have access to 50,000 pieces of artwork, thousands of templates, and the assistance of a consultant--me!

Create your own greeting cards, storybooks where you tell the stories behind the pictures and create heritage scrapbooks and storybooks about your ancestors.  Or if a wedding is imminent, create your own invitations, save-the-date cards, wedding favors, sign-in book, tri-fold table decorations, and your wedding photo book.

Personalized playing cards are fun with your children's or family members' photos printed in the deck of cards. 

The quality printing and artwork make scrapbook pages look three-dimensional.  What I love is you don't have to have a room filled with bins to keep all those expensive papers, charms, diecuts, glue sticks, photo corners, etc., taking up valuable real estate in your home.  It's all done on-line.

Print your own UV-coated canvases of wedding portraits, baby pictures, etc.

When you submit your project for publishing, it usually arrives within a week, and you can purchase multiple copies of anything you create for sharing with others.

Recently, a newlywed saw the canvases and said her photographer was going to charge her $400 for what she could purchase through HeritageMakers for $50.  All she has to do is pull her photo into the template and hit "publish."  The final product will arrive in the mail!

Don't waste your time walking all over the mall looking for a gift.  Create one at HeritageMakers that will be treasured and kept for years to come.

Please let me know if I may be of assistance to you in joining HM Club or becoming a consultant yourself!
