I wanted to share what i’ve done with some of my photos that i have taken thru Instagram.
{you can follow me under kaseybuick}
I love taking photos and i love how in one click on IG…..you can make anything look good…..
even if it’s really not good.
Do you understand ?
With one click…..i can make Living in Kauai look like there are no worries at all because of the rainbow i
just showed off over Hanalei bay but in reality……the house is a disaster…there are 2347293487 loads of laundry
to catch up on and your daughter had to sit on a bench at school during recess because she wasn’t
being nice to someone.
Anyhoo…………
i don’t know if any of you have printed your IG photos but right before Christmas i finally got on the bandwagon
and ordered a bunch to use as cards to gifts…..and i also ordered a sheet load of them to start some sort of
photo gallery wall of our time in Kauai.
{even though we still don’t know what our plan is going to be come this summer….}
I know there are a bunch of companies right now printing IG photos….so i’m sure you could use any of them….
i happened to use Prinstagrm {here}.
I love them…..
The little squares are sized 2.5 x 2.5
and i knew i wanted to make a few calling {business} cards with them because duh….
1. I don’t have a business
2. You never know when you might need to hand out a calling card
{not to be confused with calling girl……because that is not what i’m advertising…}
unless you need a roadside massage.
check check
Sorry….no roadside massages being given here.
I found really cute washi tape at our ONE AND ONLY CRAFT STORE HERE ON KAUAI
{don’t cry for me Argentina….}
and because i probably could have printed up some cute labels to slap on the backs…..
but i can’t because i have a printer that pretty much prints out dirt…..
and there is no money to invest in a real life can do everything in one sitting printer….
i had to rely on the good ole handwriting by yours truly.
I slapped a few different pieces on the back and then hand wrote out my info.
why does looking at stripes on a computer make my eyes roll back in my head and
instantly bring on a migraine?
Sorry.
the investment was small….
I paid $12 for 48 of these mini squares….
and the shipping is a flat $7 so for me it was more economical to order a bunch of photos at one time.
The washi tape was $4 a roll…..
{i know you can find it for less online…..but my craft store had a great assortment and so i was able to
just pick up a few rolls and save on shipping.
I don’t know who i plan on giving them out to…..
or for what fashion….
but i did decide Fin needed some of his own cards to give out to the girls……
I mean….really…….the kid is going to be 8 next week and so far he keeps on getting bigger
even though i told him at 5 years old that he was forbidden to have another birthday.
