{Freebie} Valentine Coloring Pages

Finally!! I figured out how to create a coloring page in PicMonkey!!

What I couldn't figure out is how to make text color-able.  

The answer was so easy it was literally staring me in the face!!

Every time you add text to what you are creating it brings up a box with TWO tabs.....an Options tab and an Effects tab.  Well duh....the Effects tab allows you to edit the text into color-able text!

So fun!!!

So if I get too crazy on offering free coloring pages please tell me! Ha!

So here's my Valentine to you!  

This quote is from an awesome worship song by John Mark McMillan "Heart Won't Stop".

Enjoy!!

And Happy Valentine's day!!

{Sharing} Free Printable & Lockscreen

Hey Lovelies!!

 

I stumbled across an Erwin McManus quote yesterday that I absolutely love and thought it needed to be a printable!! And an Instagram and a lockscreen!

 

I'm loving all things gold right now and wanted the words to be gold and I knew I couldn't really achieve that with any of the apps I use so I googled and found a great tutorial on how to make fonts gold and low and behold it involved PicMonkey!! Ha! My favorite you know!

 

(How To Make Gold Font by Mackenzie Kendall)

 



 

I know it's hard to see in the picture, it did print out better than I expected!!

 

 

Right click and save and print!

And using the Blending App, my graphic and a free Rhonna Designs background I made a lockscreen for my phone this morning!

 

(Pull up this post on your phone, long press the lockscreen image and save to phone. Go into settings and set as wallpaper.)



 

Fun stuff!! Hope this goodness uplifts you today!!

Happy Thursday!!



{Freebie} Father's Day Printable

Well I think it's time for another printable! And I actually have 2 for you!

#1 Scripture Print

Keeping with the printable I did last year, found a scripture I thought was great for all the men in our lives!

And #2 Coaster Graphic

Made a mom tile coaster so I couldn't leave out dad! I did make this one to where the color goes to the edges, I had been doing it where there was a white border but I forgot that part and it still turned out great!

See?

Can't wait to give these away this Sunday!!

{Just right like on images and save and print out!}

Have a happy Thursday!!

DIY Coasters Using PicMonkey

Remember this?

My 20 year high school reunion favor....a diy tile coaster!

Well I had a request from my niece to make some for her band banquet to use as gifts for the band teachers. Just like last time I used PicMonkey to design the graphic and thought I'd share just how easy it is!!

What you need:

Computer

paper and ink

tiles (can get at Lowe's or Home Depot for around 20 cents each)

Mod Podge

foam brush

square cork (can get at Hobby Lobby in a 6 pack)

glue such as E6000 or hot glue

sealant

Here we go!

Open up PicMonkey and choose collage.  You'll have to choose just any photo you have on your computer.

It will automatically bring up a 3 box collage.  X out of all but one, it will leave you with one big square.  Resize the square to 400x400. (See red circle.)

Next choose 'Swatches'. I used the red polka dots found under Winterland. 

Drag the swatch to the square.  

Then click on 'Background' (see arrows) and make the corner rounding 100%.  

You now have a circle!! Click on 'Edit' at the top.

Choose 'Overlays' and add a music note. Resize so that it fits from top to bottom in red circle, it will be black.

Then in the Overlay edit box, click on 'Blending Modes' and choose 'Overlay' to fade it.  

Now you can add words by clicking on the double Tt's. Once you have your words, save and print out.  

Now you're ready to make a coaster!

Trim graphic to be just under 4x4.  I don't have a fancy cutting tool so I did it the old fashioned way....fold, fold, fold, and tear. Then apply a layer of Mod Podge to the tile and smooth on your graphic. Put Mod Podge on top of the graphic and let dry overnight. Apply a second coat of Mod Podge in the opposite direction of your first layer.  Let dry for at least 2 hours. Then glue cork to back of tile. Seal the front of the tile with sealant and let dry for 24 hours. And done!

So, so easy and easy on the wallet!! 

 I've been using my high school reunion coasters and they still look the same!

Happy Thursday lovelies!!
