Mementoes In Time

Well, this site will have been up and running for almost a year and we thought it was time we had a review of things. We have really enjoyed the last year and we hope we have brought you some really interesting and different projects on the blog. We work hard to be creative and innovative and this is a tough job as there is so much which has already been done out there.

Anyway, we are delighted to say that we now have 82 members which is really great achievement for a small site like this. Many members have joined up to access the free templates and downloads we have on the site.

The intention was to bring members something extra for their committment to joining us and we think we have delivered some great free templates, backing papers and printables over the last few months.

We hope that by giving free stuff, that members will become more involved in the site by uploading photos to the gallery, commenting on blog posts and leaving notes in the testimonials section. This helps the site to grow into a community. We have had a bit of feedback but we would like to get more..much more!

So we have decided that we need to reward those 'Active' members who do take the time to give us feedback, either by entering the competitions, uploading photos or commenting regularly on blog posts.

So from now on, we will be putting in place a rewards scheme with extra freebies for those members who really contribute to helping this site grow.

We will still continue to offer limited freebies to all site members but the main focus will be on rewards for active members and any new free stuff will go there.

The freebies might take the form of templates, printables, digital images, backing papers or even vouchers to spend on the site, so you will be able to choose your reward which will be based upon your contributions.

We are still working on the details of how this will work but if you would like to get involved, then go ahead and get going by:

• uploading some photos,
  
• entering the March card competition - the theme is 'Flowers',
  
• posting on the forum,
  
• commenting on the blog posts.
  

Let us know you are out there and like the site, tell us what you would like to see or what you think we could improve and start earning some special member rewards.
