Mix and Match: Think Outside the Box
Hi everyone. Polly Tiki here. Welcome to another edition of Mix and Match. Today I'm going to walk you through my thinking process on a recent layout of my son playing soccer.I know a lot of you look at what pictures you need to scrap and then look for kits that match the theme of that picture. For instance, if you have a soccer picture you will search for Soccer kits or Sports related kits. If you have pool party pictures, you'll search for Pool Party kits. This is all fine and dandy but if your favorite store is the Lilypad, this type of searching will cause you to miss out on a lot of great products we have in the store.

Snappin’ Sundays: Inspiration Sites
I thought I'd share some websites that provide good how-to tutorials, offer photography forums, and pretty pictures.Clickin' Moms is a great photography forum. They provide classes, tutorials, and as much camera and lens discussion you could possible want. They are a membership forum, but it is very reasonable at $30/6 months. And if you don't want to pay a fee, you can always check out their blog for free inspiration.The Lens Loves provides portrait inspiration. This recent baby session is especially cute.Inspire Me Baby provides inspiration for child photography, as well as business tips and the occasional tutorial.Finding the Art in Life is the photography blog of Angela Crutcher, my personal favorite. And if you look far enough, you might find pictures of my two cute kiddos. :)I Heart Faces is a great photography site that offers weekly challenges with different themes, and it's … [Read more...]
