CollageIt Free iOS Review

Have you ever wanted to make those cute collage photos you see posted around the internet? Not real savvy with hard to use photo editing software? Well I have the perfect solution for you. CollageIt Free by Pearl Mountain Software. If you have a compatible Apple device, you will definitely want to download this application.

You can import up to 9 photos and by simply tapping the screen you can edit, rotate, resize, flip, delete, or adjust the border and space between each of these photos. There are also 4 different collage themes, Manual, Center, Grid, and Mosaic with 30+ templates.





The best part is that you can save your collage as an image file, send it via email, or share it on Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, and Flickr with such ease. Who couldn't do this?

My 14 year old daughter loves this application. Here is a collage she made for her FAVORITE boy band, One Direction.
This is done with the Center theme


Here is another one she made with her future wedding ideas..yes I know she is only 14 but when did you start planning your wedding? LOL A girl can dream right?

This was done in the Mosaic theme

Be sure to check out the CollageIt Free app HERE

#RedCarpetReady with @Dailyscocktails and @EatWholly

RedCarpetReady   I do not typically watch the red carpet portion of the awards shows but when I was chosen by @EatWholly and @dailyscocktails to host this ultimate #Oscars party, I was super excited. I absolutely love all the Wholly products, the classic medium salsa is by far my fav. The spicy guacamole was also a big hit at our #RedCarpetReady party. The kit I received included three varieties of Wholly Guacamole, three varieties of Wholly Salsa, three wholly stress toys shaped like avocados  2 wholly chip clips, 2 Daily's Cocktail glasses, a red carpet to roll out, and a $20 Walmart gift card to purchase the Daily's Cocktails. 4d384cc42be92e2bdcb0da4ca59e7597
 Our party night started off with tortilla chips and wholly salsa, cajun chicken kabobs with guacamole dip, and ended with our Daily's Cocktails :) The flavors of Daily's cocktails we enjoyed were: Frozen Lemonade, Pina Colada, Strawberry Margarita, Margarita, and Pomegranate Margarita. The best flavor for me was the Pina Colada..though the Frozen Lemonade was a close 2nd.

After digging in to all the great foods and drinks, we watched "End of Watch" with . The movie is shot documentary-style, this film follows the daily grind of two young police officers in LA who are partners and friends, and what happens when they meet criminal forces greater than themselves. The movie was hard to follow at first but tied together at the end.

With the $20 gift card I was able to purchase quite a few Daily's Cocktails for my friends and myself. They were only $1.97 at our Walmart but I have seen them as low as $1.88 at Shop N Save. You can also use the Wholly Locator or the Daily's Locator to find products at stores near you. Be sure to like, follow, and pin both of these great sponsors below.
