Hi friends! Welcome to a late-night edition of Technology Tuesday! Why a late night post? Well if you were on Instagram today, your feed may have been abuzz with darling doodles from the newest Instagram app called A Beautiful Mess! It’s an app developed and designed by Elsie and Emma – the gorgeous gals behind A Beautiful Mess – the blog. And because you know I love Instagram, and I love y’all, I wanted to be sure you knew about it! At just $.99 – go snag it now. And I mean NOW. You’re not going to find a better photo app for that price in the market. Trust me – I’ve just about bought them all!
What does the app do? It has fun filters, inspired by the photography genius of Elsie and Emma. You can start with fun backgrounds (I think the library card background is my fave!). You can add text or fun pre-written phrases. And lastly you can add cute borders and pre-drawn doodles (like arrows and speech bubbles). Seriously a whole lotta fun in one little app. You can also buy small add-on packages if there are additional features that you want.
So what are you waiting for? Go download it from iTunes today. Android users, looks like you might have to wait a bit. Let’s hope that the gals are inundated with cash flow that they feel compelled to get a start on Google Play! 😉 Oh and a quick shoutout to my fabulous gal pals (shown above) who I think got it right today with their Beautiful Mess photo styling: @mrsemshhh, @theblueeyedowl, @aplaceforus, @fancythingsblog, @blogali, @chevronstitches, @antlersandroses and @bettinakina. Thank you ladies for your continued inspiration!
And if you’re sick of it already – just hang in there. I was dying at first because I couldn’t get on wifi to download it and my feed was inundated, so I get the frustration. But it’s like a new pet, people are all gaga over the puppy stage. Things will surely die down. Oh and for those of you who do snag the app, please don’t doodle up every image. Sometimes less is more – right? I have countless photo apps, but sometimes there’s something to a simple, beautiful image. So let’s go out there and have some fun and let our creativity run wild. See you on Instagram!

Okay.. this looks like too much fun!
Thank you for this! I noticed all of these posts on IG with cool doodles and was wondering how they did them! Off to download the app…

I just noticed the app this morning on Rebecca Designs’ Instagram pic…and totally LOVE IT…but unfortunately I’m on Team Android…do you happen to know if they’ll be releasing an Android version?
Looks like so much fun! And you really can’t beat that price.
This app is popping up everywhere. Too bad they don’t have it for Android yet. One of these days some developer will have a button which will magically make all apps across all platforms. Wouldn’t that be nice, eh?
🙁 I’m disappointed it’s not available for Android. I LOVE A Beautiful Mess! Oh well, all you iPhone users enjoy! 😉
I want this app but I get can not have it 🙁
Will it become available for android soon?
Please say yes 🙂
