Tutorial: Use Instamag App to enhance your Project life snapshots


I don't know about any of you. But I am a big fan of Instagram. I love to explore new filters and gigs to enhance my photos a little bit.
So I found InstaMag.

You can either download it for Andriod or on iTunes.

It's a FREE app. I love FREE. lol


You can just use this app like any other photo editing apps.  Click on Library, you can choose from 1 frame to 9 frames at once.




 You can also go to Magazine to download the layouts that will make your photos look like magazine cover or spreads. Then you can use the way they are or Trim them to suit your needs.

Here are some examples: I plan to print them out and include in my Project life spreads. Stay tuned and I will show you my finished spreads soon.

Hope this will inspire you to try new things when creating. :)

{A Layout} Sweet treat

{A Layout} Sweet treat

This photo was taken during our date night a few weeks ago. Hubby took me to a very nice Sushi buffet and I treated him with frozen yogurt after dinner. We had such a lovely evening.

For being married almost 11 years, we still have a lot to chat and laugh together. We enjoy each others company. I love how he always read my minds and make me laugh so hard.

I think its pretty safe to say I'd pick him all over again. lol

{A Layout} Magical Night

{A Layout} Magical Night

I use supplies from three different kits (Blue Farm Grass , Bessie and Clove)over at Studio Calico for this layout.

This photo was taken on our first night at the South Pacific ocean during our Tahiti trip from last May. 

I just have to say, the experience with Tahiti was just unforgettable and amazing. I can't get enough of it. So I will scrap as many as photos I can from that trip. :)

Miss it everyday after we got back. Hope to visit there soon.
