Inspirational Sundays

Everyone knows those pinterest boards with all those inspirational quotes and really pretty pictures behind them, that we all repin. Recently I have been creating my own pin worthy pictures and use a lot of them as daily motivation by making them my phone background.

The options for creating your own inspirational photos/collages are endless but I will say there are some that are better than others. The main app I use would be Over, that I found from watching SarahBelle93x's What's on My I-phone video. This app lets you add text to any photo from your photo library, you can create layers of text if you want to have longer quotes and you want them to be sized for your phone. I have just the basic version  which has so many colours and a good range of fonts. You can also change the size, opacity and alignment of the font as well. This app is $1.99 in the app store.




Picfx is a filter app which I use after I create a picture on Over if I want to add to make it a little more hipster (Just kidding! Sort of...). There are so many different categories of of filters in the app (at least 10 or more), although I do stick with a select few. The vintage and light filter categories are my favourites, the light one has a filter with hearts. This app is also $1.99 in the app store.



The next app I haven't used a lot but  it's kind of a fun one, since you get to play around with it.  Bokehul is a pretty basic app, you just select a shape, then the colour and just tap where you want to place the icons. You can choose a circle, star, heart and octagon shape. This app is 99 cents in the app store.




I know all the apps I have talked about have been one's you have to pay, so I thought I would include a couple free ones. I used InstaFrame (left) and InstaCollage (right) a lot before I discovered all the other apps but I think InstaFrame is a little more fun. Insta Collage does have more spaces for pictures to go in but the more you have the pictures get smaller. Both are free in the app store.



And of course I have to mention Instagram (welldressedgypsy), where you can find me posting a lot more than the blog. I do want to post an Inspirational Sunday picture every Sunday, whether or not I have made the picture or not. If you follow Sprinkle of Glitter's blog she does a post every Monday called Motivational Monday with a motivational quote and how it applies her life. I absolutely love her and her YouTube channels (Sprinkle of Glitter and Sprinkle of Chatter), so go check her out! I'll leave with a few other inspirational quote creations made by yours truly.



With Love,
