Southern Comfort Savannah Style

A couple of years ago, on our way to Hilton Head Island, we stopped in beautiful Savannah, GA for a few hours. Since my kids have grown up with Food Network, they knew Paula Dean's restaurant is located there, so of course, we stopped by to have lunch. It was so crowded, the wait was several hours, so we opted out and did a little shopping in the gift shop. Fast forward two years and we're heading to HHI again, so I planned ahead and made reservations. What a fun and delicious way to spend an afternoon in Savannah. I just took a few Instagram photos with my phone to capture the moment. The following is a layout I created using the gorgeous Citrus Twist Kit and a few goodies from my stash.
I fussy cut some flowers from the Heidi Swapp Beautiful paper and even added some stitching and french knots for dimension. I simply adore the way this turned out, it may be one of my new favorites! (You may click on image to enlarge.)

Easy Instagram Printing

I took a week off from my blog to go on vacation. We had an amazing time but it's always good to get home. Of course, I took tons of photos, including some Instagram pics on my phone. I just discovered an easy way to print Instagram pics and I thought I would share it with you. This is for those that do not wish to print from home. 1. Transfer pics to computer from phone. 2. Go to your favorite printing site (I happen to use Walmart.) 3. Select collage (8x10) and select your photos. **I found that if I select 6 photos per collage, I get 3x3 photos. You can also add more photos but you'll get a mix of sizes.** 4. Choose your border size and color. Here is what they will look like... (Click on image to enlarge)
Now, all I need to do is trim them down. I decided to use a thick border so I have the option of having a white border. Of course, you can always use Prinstagram or print from home, but this is such an easy and quick way to get the pics from your phone to your scrapbook pages! I hope you found this to be a helpful tip.
