CraftGawker: Best iPhone Inspiration & DIY Art Discovery App

Considering I was up until about 530am playing on this iPhone app, deftly titled "craftgawker", I just couldn't consciously keep this find to myself!

The app interface is beautiful in its simplicity! Immediately upon opening the app, you're taken into a gallery of products. You can scroll down & choose any item to be taken to its 'details' page, which showcases a larger photo & a mini description. Optionally, you can also perform a general key word search - and believe  me, after scrolling through all the cool projects, you'll want to narrow things down!

Once you pinpoint your hearts desire { *swoon* } you'll be able to see the original source page. And this is possibly the best part, because almost every item I've found has been attached to a DIY tutorial! YAY!

> Visit this link to download app.

> Don't have an iPhone or another compatible phone? Not to worry! You can also view the fabulous arts & craft inspirations online at www.craftgawker.com

Some of my personal favorite finds include:
- Baby's Sushi Costume
- Leather iPhone Case
- Paper Feathers
- Handmade Leather Journals
- Repurposed Newspaper Bags
- Paper Art Necklace
- Oversized Wall Mural

Free iPhone Wallpapers!

As part of my new website "revamp", I decided to create something just for fun! And what better way to curve some of that "design appetite" than to create something fabulous & funky with Photoshop?!

Since I just can't put my iPhone down (unless I'm on my laptop, of course), I decided to create a new line of iPhone wallpapers. Currently there are about 10 designs, with even funkier designs coming soon! Let's just say it's going to be an ongoing project. I can't help but create! :D

You can view the free designs on my Flickr Photostream, under the "iPhone Wallpapers" Set.

Enter to WIN this fun & easy-to-use digital scrapbooking software suite!

The wonderful scrapbookers over at MyMemories.com were gracious enough to let me have first dibs on trying out their wonderful scrapbooking software recently. I cannot rave enough about this software suite! You can create all sorts of beautiful digital scrapbook layouts. I've tried similar suites before but the learning curve was exhausting.

With MyMemories, the process is actually simple, fast & fun - definitely the perfect outlet for showcasing some of my LG Design Studio photography! They have some pretty neat freebie template packs you can download direct from their website (with immediate download access) - it took me a second to figure out where they could be accessed in the program, but it was worth the digging!

Upon opening the program, you have the option of creating an album from the designer templates (LOVE! Super easy), creating your own template or browsing additional content online. Recent projects are also easy to open & continue editing. And as far as the interface goes, it's very well executed. All of my possible scrapbooking customization options are laid out very well - and are self explanatory.

I'm also really digging the "export to JPEG" option, which lets you export files from projects in one large batch, but will save each page as an individual JPEG file. Basically, you can print just one page at a time if you'd like, or post one file / email it easily with a few clicks.

AND, since I love the software SO much, MyMemories.com is offering one of the 'Design Lookout Blog' readers the opportunity to WIN the incredible MyMemories software suite!

TO ENTER: Please visit MyMemories.com and choose your favorite digital paper pack(s) or layout(s), then leave a comment below by telling me which ones you chose. It's that easy! The winner will be chosen on August 31, 2011. That's only 12 days away, so ENTER NOW!

AND, for those of you frothing at the mouth to try this incredible software out, you can use Coupon Code STMMMS28438 to receive a $10 discount off the purchase of the My Memories Suite Scrapbook software and a $10 coupon for the MyMemories.com store - a $20 total value exclusively for 'Design Lookout Blog' & 'LG Design & Clipart Studio' members / fans!

Photography-Inspired Paper Goods

I love to discover beautiful photography. It always gives me ideas! Especially this one which is particularly funky and cute. The pattern in the background inspired me to create something totally 'damask'. So here is Design Lookout's first official Freebie! 

1. 'Princess Up High' by Paint the Moon Design { visit etsy shop }
2. Blank Photo Card Templates from LG Design Studio { visit etsy shop }
3. Matching 1" Stickers

What You Get: 

You'll get the photo card layout in 3 colors - pink, blue and a brownish color I'll just call 'sepia', plus matching 1" sticker seals. Both items come blank, so just personalize by plugging in your own text and photo. You can use this template either in a horizontal or vertical orientation for weddings, baby showers... whatever your little heart desires!
