Hello SC friends! It's Kelly here to share an insider tip on my "This..." layout from the Candy Shoppe gallery.
Creating a mosaic is so easy. Big Huge Labs is a photo site that allows you to create really fun things with your photos...puzzles, mosaics, etc. I chose the mosaic maker for this particular layout.
First, I converted all the photos I wanted to use into black and whites. That was the most time consuming part and now looking back on it I probably could have uploaded them all and then converted the entire mosaic to B&W, but converting them one by one gave me more control over the editing. When you go to the Mosaic Maker on the Big Huge Labs site, it will ask you how many columns and rows you want you mosaic to be. Depending on how you're planning your layout, select the appropriate number of columns and rows. Then you can either upload your photos individually, from your Facebook albums or from Flickr.
After your finished uploading your photos, save the mosaic to your computer. Open the mosaic using Photoshop or Elements, resize to your liking and print away! The possibilities are endless here... you could even print out some DIY photo booth strips with the mosaic maker.
OMG! DIY photo strips? I'm in.

I'll give it a try! Do I have to have photoshop or elements to be able to do this? Thanks!

Thanks for the tip! I went there and made a photobooth strip from some Valentine photos I took of my baby. You can see it here:
