Large Die Cuts/Ephemera on a Scrapbook Layout and Process Video

For February Kitaholic Kits included a lot of Dear Lizzy New Day in their kits. I love all the fun colours and quirky cute creatures but seem to struggle with some of the die cuts that are a bit on the larger side. I really did want to use them though and decided to pair them up with a large photo. I have to admit that the scrapbook layout is quite simple and came together super quick but I still love the result I got.

Hope you enjoy and don't forget to check out the You Tube Process video.

Creating Polaroid Photos in the Collect App

I got a request on my You Tube Channel to show how I made my 3x4 polaroid photos for my Project Life. So here is a walk through on my iPad on how I do that.

I will do a follow up video on how I print these out. They make a great addition to Project Life and I hope this video is helpful.

Thanks for stopping by and have a crafty day!

Photo Editing with Apps

I love using my iPad (and iPhone) to make fun edits on my photos so I thought I'd share a quick tutorial on an edit I recently did. This one is super simple.

Apps needed:

Dropbox (if your photo is not on your device)

Pixlromatic 

This was the first day of school and it was a partially overcast day when I took the pic so I wanted to warm it up a bit.

Because I took the photo with my point and shoot camera I first dropped the pic into my Dropbox folder.

Photos added to Dropbox

 

I then opened my chosen photo in Pixlromatic.

 

I chose the effect Adrian

 

and then chose the overlay Redone

 

finally I saved it out to my camera roll

 

and thats it! Because I have Dropbox my pics automatically transfer back to my PC ready to be printed.

 

 

The possibilities are endless with the photo editing apps that are available!

Hope you are having a great day and happy editing!
