Monday Mugs - Collages


Big Sigh!!! I left the power cord to my computer at a high school gym two hours from here when I watched my two youngest in a volleyball tournament Saturday. So once I do this post I'm out of juice until the cord is replaced.

I'm joining Heather of Oswald Cuties with her new meme, Monday Mugs. This week's theme is Collages. I love making collages and usually use a photo editing program called Shutterfly Studio (free download from Shutterfly.com).

This uses pictures from our last big family vacation in 2006. We spent two weeks on the west coast. I wanted to get every person in the family on the collage.


Family Pictures 2005

Andrew

Girls Group my kids belonged to. I made a copy for each family.

I made it so no one from the same family is next to each other.





I can't say enough good things about Shutterfly Studio's collage maker. I also use it to make wallet photos. Wallets usually run .40 each. I make a two picture collage, cut it in half and I have a wallet for .06.

  1. How fun. Hope you find a camera cord.
    The pics of Andrew are hilarious. The last one (Kiah?) is so beautiful. Keep it up! Hey, still praying for your stress month coming up.

  3. I LOVE those collages! Andres's is hilarious! I almost didn't use the collages theme this week but I had so much fun making mine and there are so many different sites/software to use to make different collages. I am so excited to try some of them. I will add Shutterfly to the list. Thanks for the info and for the wallet size photo tip!

  4. I like the collages too! I was wondering what you use to make them and then read a little further down.
