I _helped_ Santa pick out an instant camera for me for Christmas this year so I can start a photo journal. My mom passed away 1 1/2 years ago...and she was my best friend. Really my only truly close friend. And we did tons of really fun things together...shopping and traveling and playing games...usually at least once a week we'd take a trip up some near by mountains and spend an entire evening sitting by a lake and enjoying a campfire. So soon after she passed away I went to a build-a-bear workshop and had a really cute bear made for my mom. I plan on taking the bear all over with me, and taking photos of the places I go with the bear and creating a journal of it. Just a way to remember my mom and to still enjoy life with her in it. Sorry for the long post here. Not sure why I'm sharing this haha xP
I also lost my mom who was also my one true friend. Sometimes you just need to tell about your love and I as I’m sure everyone understands that’s. God speed in your travels and maybe try to just find a friend 🥰
So sorry for your loss. What an amazing way to honour & remember your beautiful mam. Such a gorgeous and heart felt way. Honestly your post touched my heart. Its been a year since original post, so I hope you have had some awesome adventures and created some happy memories to help heal your heartache. I have no doubt that your mam continues to walk beside you every step of the way 💕 Sending you the Warmest of hugs and very best wishes from Ireland 🇮🇪 xx
Thanks for explaining all of the printing options and doing the side by side comparisons of the photos. You answered several questions that I have had about the Instax camera vs a pocket printer. Thanks so much for a great video!
I just wanted to say that I love all your videos. Your style is very relaxed and engaging and all the videos have been very informative!!! Thanks for all the tips!
Great "how to" video. So well presented. I have the Sprocket II and it makes great pics from my phone, but not much luck taking inside pictures. Maybe outside will be better. Thanks for sharing. 💓
She didn’t respond so I went searching for an app that would do this. I know you posted this question awhile ago but for others who are wondering, I found Pic Stitch. It looks like all square collages at first but it lets you change the aspect ratio to 4x6! And it has so many other layout options. I haven’t actually printed any pictures out yet, so we’ll see how it goes!
@@stephaniemartinez823 I tried the pic stitch -- the problem is that it crops the photo down so the pictures aren't uniform. Grrrrr...I'd like to see what to do to makei t work. I love printing at home but haven't found a way to make this work!
@@Mamadriggs I think you can move the picture around to get it more centered within the frame. I haven’t used the app in awhile, but I did print a bunch of pictures when I first used it and they came out great! That reminds me I need to get back into scrapbooking 😁
It does depend on what type of printer you are using, a pocket printer or a regular one. Pocket printers have their own photo papers and regular ones can be used with photo paper.

Great video. If i need extra room I will put a tip in I have multiple photos, Washy in a card or patterned paper and stick photos on it.
OH, great idea! I'll have to try that. Thanks for watching.
Lovely video and scrapbook page!
Thank you for the kind words 🥰
This has been a very helpful video. Thankyou very much 💛
Thanks Sharelle! So glad to hear this video was helpful to you! (:
Great ideas for printing. Tfs.
This was very helpful, thanks!
We are glad you enjoyed it! (:
Awesome! Thank You!!
What brand/model photo printer at home do you suggest 😉
Great informative video. Thank you so much. I LOVE your handwriting in your planners. Can you pass that talent on to me? :) Nice .....
very informative information. Thanks!
I like all the options but for me the best is using my Corel Draw
Which apps do you use to collage 4x6 photos? Every collage app I’ve found only creates square photos and it’s slightly maddening!

-Love it. Thanks so much!

What printer do you use at home to print your pictures?
I love the Canon crafters all in one... there is a great video on how to print at home
what kind of paper do you use to print the pictures at home?
It does depend on what type of printer you are using, a pocket printer or a regular one. Pocket printers have their own photo papers and regular ones can be used with photo paper.
Can we print photos in plain A4 copy paper ? For journals
You can but they will not have the same vibrancy/lifespan as photos printed on photo paper. Hope this helps!
@@scrapbook okay thank you so much for your suggestion.
