In a hurry to show you some of the other things you can do I didn’t edit these to the same size. No worries, I can go back it is saved & pick up where I left off.

To see My Memories freebie offerings:
All Friday Freebies will now be My Memories Suite Compatible. What does that mean??? It means that you can now load the freebies directly into your My Memories Suite Software, and then completely customize them with any paper and embellishments that you have. If you don’t have the software, you can still download the sample project and the elements, but you will not be able to customize their project.
Using My Memories Software to Customize your Doorknob Hanger
- Download template file and install it into your software
- Using MyMemories Suite, choose Create Album From Designer Template and find your project
- Now you can add pictures, print and enjoy the provided template, or customize it with your own papers and embellishments.
TIP:
You can right-click on the white guide and lock it in place to keep it from moving while you are working. Make sure this is the top layer of your project before printing.
Instead of adding the paper as a background paper, you can add it as an embellishment so that you can move the paper around. This is especially useful when using papers with stripes or circles, so you can decide which part of the paper you want to use.
Once it is added as an embellishment, you can now select the paper and move it into the position you want it.
Just SAVE and PRINT on cardstock!
Doorknob Hanger Tutorial
1. Print your doorknob templates on cardstock and gather supplies. (Recommended supplies: bone folder, craft knife, cutting mat, metal edged ruler, small scissors, tape runner) gather supplies
2. Using the craft knife and metal edged ruler cut along outside line.
TIP: a paper cutter could be used as an alternative trim edge
3. Repeat on all four sides. Trim all edges
4. Using a bone folder, fold the doorknob hanger in half.
5. Apply a liberal amount of the glue of your choice and glue sides together.
TIP: A tape runner works better than a glue stick! Glue together.
6. Using small scissors, cut out the white center circle. Cut out Circle
7. Hang on a door and Enjoy!!
TIP: To make your doorknob hanger last longer, it is best to laminate your project. Clear contact paper makes great Do-It-Yourself lamination. I promise to add step by step photos for the next one!
