I love, love, love taking photos with my iPhone using my Hipstamatic and Instagram Apps. I have several different photography apps, but these are by far my favorite. You can make lots of cool old looking Holga/Instamatic-type prints!
I wanted to actually get one of my photos off the phone and onto the wall! I used an inexpensive wall box, vellum, my printer, and a candle to make this take shape. It turned out really cool and makes a perfect personalized gift to give!! Here's how you can make your own!
Supplies
– Wall shadow box (mine was 6x6 and purchased in a set at Target on clearance! Only $3!)
– Hipstamatic photo with black frame edge (you can use another square photo if you don't have a Hipstamatic photo)
– Vellum paper
– The Perfect Printing Pouch (seriously recommended)
– Double sided tape or tape runner for vellum
– Ruler
– Xacto knife
– Cutting Mat
– Photo processing program like Photoshop (you could also use iPhoto)
– Inkjet printer
– tealight (for safety reasons, you could use a battery operated one)

I guess it is wise to use a battery powered "tealight", instead of an open fire behind the vellum :) My kids and/or pets would burn the house down in a matter of hours...
