I love creating home decor of pictures from a vacation or a little getaway. Heidi Swapp's Shadow box is just perfect to create a memory that you can display in your home. Check out Heidi Swapp's blog for more details. Here are just a little more fun tips to make your project come to life.
I love my iPhone because you can do so much with it. You can also take photos, document your day, edit your photos and connect to social media about what you're doing, eating and feeling. It's pretty amazing.
One of the apps that I use most in my projects is called HP Live Photo. This app allows you to print a photo with a video embedded in it. All you do is open the app, hover your phone over the pix making sure it has the HP symbol or logo on it and watch your photo come to life. A W E S O M E! Watch here.
If you notice I printed out quite a few pictures from our trip that had videos and incorporated it throughout my book. It's a great way to watch our memories come to life.
Here's another app I used to incorporate into my projects. It's called QR Reader for the iPhone. You can scan QR codes and create them to print out of your favorite videos from YOUTUBE. Since we went to Magic Mountain and rode on some amazing roller coasters I wanted to be able to see what each roller coasters were like. So I went on YOU Tube to search on specific ones, created a code and printed them digitally onto Heidi Swapp's digi NO LIMITS NOTE CARDS. Along with her other digi elements from her INSTAFRAMES: COLORFUL digi collections.
I first opened up in photoshop all of the digital elements I wanted to use as well as the QR code. dragged and dropped onto the note card layer. You can also add your photo but I wanted to print it out then adhere to the card.
Once you have all your digital elements onto the card. Go to layer and flatten image. Then save and print. Now just use the app to hover your phone over the code and voila! You can watch your video on your phone.
One of the rides that was just our favorite of the whole park was TATSU. I found a video of it on YOUTUBE and created the QR code. So now you can watch just how scary and fun this ride is. I
created one for all the roller coaster rides we went onto. So fun!
I hope that I've inspired you to create some photos that come to life to add to your projects that you can cherish.
thanks for coming by.
