I decided to give my blog a facelift.  It’s still in the new stages and at one point I did something that wiped the whole thing and went into FREAK out mode.  But I still need to tweak colours and what not, but decided to go with a 1 column sidebar for a while and see how I like it.  And best of all, no more comment issues.

Sunday is here down under and my laid back weekend didn’t quite go to plan.  Mind you I didn’t get up to all that much.  Hubby left Friday afternoon to go away for the night.  And the girls and I did our usual, dvd night and takeaway all so know as Macca’s night.  We were all in bed by 9pm?!  Although I was watching a DVD in bed and alseep before midnight I am pretty sure.  Heidi woke me not long after that, as she was being sick.  Poor girl was up and down all night and I was there right along beside her.  She stopped at about 10.30am but still was miserable all day.  THANK goodness she woke today all bubbley and happy, that’s my Heidi girl.  I am just hoping it’s not a bug that is now going to go through the house.  Not only because I HATE seeing my girls sick when I can do nothing, but also because we have my 30th this weekend and I am so looking forward to it and seeing family and friends.

SO now I don’t have any pages to share with you.  I have just not been in a smashing or crafting mood lately.  I have started to clean my craft room and you would had seen the pictures in my post yesterday, it’s a total mess, I mean like BAD mess, can’t see much of the floor mess.  But I have loved having a look through my scrapbooking again and seeing how much I miss it.  I love smashing, I call myself a “smashbooker” but might try scrapbook more too.

So I decided to share with you all my favourite photo apps on my i-phone as I get a few emails and questions on my facebook page on what I use and where I also get my photos printed. And also what camera’s I use and love.  So I decided to share it all with you in the one post. My favourite photo editing apps are…

• Instagram – Like you all didn’t know that already.
• Snapster – Mainly for the colour effect.
• Pocketbooth – My girls and I love to play with this.
• Pixfx – This is where I get the little light effects and more from.

I usually edit my photos in things like Picfix and Snapter and then always go and instagram it.  Instagram is almost like facebook only via pictures only.  I really love it and ALWAYS love the effect that I get and use them for scrapbooking and smashbooks.

Where do I get them printed is another question I get a lot.  I used to get them printed at an online store that closed down.  I was so bummed because the quality was always AMAZING.  Since then I have looked to find another perfect place.  I have used a few…

• Persnickety Prints – Have used once and wasn’t happy with the quality.
• Printstagram – These are cute, but still not overly what I am after.
• Scrapping Simply – They do 4×4 and I have ordered twice and the quality it really good and I think I will be sticking with them from now on.  I have emailed to ask if they do 3×3 as it’s my prefered size and just awaiting a reply.  But they are FAST.

What camera’s do I use and love?  This one is simple and easy…

• I-phone
• Fuji Instax

Yep that is all.  I did have a digital camera but it started to break down, it had a good innings for 6 years.  And after I got my i-phone I just stopped using it as much.  I love my fuji for the instant photos and the use it right away.

So there you have it, all my little camera and photo secrets, well not really!

I must dash now as my SIL just rang and asked if I wanted to go to the movies with her this afternoon and we are going to see Magic Mike and I can’t wait.
