31 Days: Instagram Scrapbook Pages


Sorry for the lack of post yesterday - I was not feeling well at all - stress induced migraines are YUCKY! :)

Anyway, I thought I'd make it up by showing you some of these neat scrapbook pages that people have made with their Instagram photos. I SO want to try making one of these!

31 Days: The One IG'er You MUST Follow

If you are into iPhone photography at all, there is one Instagramer (IG'er) that you absolutely must follow - AMPt.

AMPt stands for Advanced Mobile Photography Team, and they post some of the coolest Instagram photos each and every day. In addition to showing you the images, they also tell you the backstory and provide a detailed explanation of which apps and tools they used to create the effect so that you can duplicate it on your own.

If you are looking for some amazing photographic eye candy, a little bit of inspiration, or a tutorial on how to improve your iPhoneography, AMPt is definitely the place to look!

31 Days: Print Those Instagrams!

As my Instagram shots have gotten more artistic, I've been thinking more and more about how I'd like to print them. The photos are, after all, a little tricky to get printed since they are square! A little bit of online scouting and Pinterest stalking has brought me to these three websites that offer really neat ways to get your Instagram pics printed. I can't vouch for the services (yet) but I'd love to hear in the comments if you have tried any of them out!

1. ImageSnap - I've seen several posts that link back to the website ImageSnap, where they create cute little "Teeny Tiles" that are magnets made with your Instagram photos. Each Teeny Tile costs about $4, and can also be created using Facebook photos.

2. PostalPix - This nifty little app allows you to order 4x4 prints of your favorite Instagram photos directly from your iPhone. A nice little bonus - PostalPix has a pretty high rating in the iTunes store!

3. Blurb - I can honestly say that I've heard nothing but good reviews of Blurb, and they now offer a sweet little Instagram book for $10.95. I may have to order one of these for myself!

Any other good recommendations out there?

31 Days: Instagram Week


It's no secret that Instagram is *THE* newest trend. While some naysayers might say that we'll regret not having as many sharp, vivid images one day... I say forget it and embrace the trend! We're going to regret our choices of fashion and art one day regardless.

Therefore, I've decided to dub this week Instagram week, at least over here! ;)

I don't have much for you tonight, but throughout this week you can look forward to:

- Neat projects to do with all of those Instagram photos
- Tips, tricks, and tutorials
- A fun fall photo-a-day challenge
- And more!

I can't wait, and I hope see you back tomorrow! :)
