Insta Fonts for Instagram FX: cheat sheets

I have been LOVING the amazing response we've been getting for the Insta Fonts...the Instagram Class I'm doing TONIGHT & the Studio 5 segment have really opened doors to what we can DO w/ our Instagram photos! 

THANK YOU! And as a little gift to all of the viewers from Studio 5- How about $2.00 off any of the *individual* Insta Fonts 

Just put any of the individual Insta Fonts into your Shopping Cart, then enter:

RDStudio5 

in the "Apply Discount Code" box to receive your Insta Fonts for $2.00 off.  Offer good until Thursday the 22nd! *happy thanksgiving*

So, with all of the talk about how to fancy up your photos on your phone & HOW to take the creativity up a notch...we've had a lot of new Insta friends asking about 'cheat sheets' for the Insta Fonts.

As I explain in THIS tutorial, Phonto is the app you use to TYPE in the letter to get the fun Insta dingbat designs in there...BUT...they are so small & if you aren't familiar w/ the designs...it can get frustrating.

So...I'm posting the cheat sheets here for the existing 15 Insta Fonts we have in the store! And from here on out...each of the NEW Insta Fonts *yup, you heard me right...NEW ones coming soon** will be included IN the download kit! 

Each of these Insta Fonts are designed to be the CAPITAL letter of the alphabet. So, each kit/font comes w/ 26 designs EXCEPT the Insta Numbers since I wanted a whole set 1-31! So, you will note: there's a,b,c,d,e in there.

Is Scrapbooking Dead?

This is a big question! And at 11am this morning I'm excited & honored to be on a panel discussion on our local TV station: Studio 5 where this gets answered!  The amazing Stacy Julian of Big Picture Scrapbooking, fabulous Becky Higgins of Project Life, Mark Katchen of 1000 Memories & I will be 'forecasting the future' & discussing real solutions on memory keeping.  

I'm really excited to talk about this...you know how I feel about it...it's not dead...it's just evolving. Just like any art...the art of memory keeping is evolving w/ our needs, our technology & our lifestyles.  Even though I've been designing traditional scrapbook products for 9 years, you know I have always been a little bit 'techy' when it comes to my personal memory keeping....because it works for me.  So, don't miss this show as we share some fun ways to uplift and inspire YOU and the way YOU keep your memories!

And, as you'll see on my segment...I'll be talking about Instagram. *surprise, surprise*...Don't forget...tomorrow night I'll be teaching a LIVE class at Dear Lizzie Boutique...see HERE for info to register!

Sparks are flying....

Tomorrow morning watch NBC's local affiliate: KSL's Studio 5. THE Liz Kartchner will be doing a segment on tapping into your creativity.....and...
the Spark girls were involved!

We met at Dear Lizzie (thank you so much, Laura!) & the fab Studio 5 crew set up the lights in the *newly painted & decorated* part of the Bistro...look at how stunning it is: white on white with chandeliers all over. *sigh* They've done it again....
(and...perfect for the first class in the Dear Lizzie Winter Workshop Series...tomorrow night with...Margie! Can't wait!)
Look at how *Sparky* the entrance of the store is, too! Doilies, coffee filter flowers, sheer magic! I am in LOVE with those 'XO' letters/lights.

So, stay tuned....Liz is sure to have some fab stuff about creativity! Can't wait!
