SNAPCHAT 101 - ADDING 3-D STICKERS

May 25, 2016

In mid-April 2016, Snapchat launched 3-D Stickers. We know, we know. You finally are getting this Snapchat thing and then they adds another confusing, clunky option. But don't worry, we not only got you with this 101 video but we promise you will love using them once you learn how to actually do it.

So what are 3-D stickers anyway?
They are emojis - in action.

When you snap a video, you can now add any one (or as many as you want) emojis to that video. But, more importantly, you are adding it to the actual movement, or action, that the content in the video is making. In our above example, we cup our hand and then move it back and forth. We then show you how to add a 3-D sticker (in a this case, a flower and then a heart) and it moves with our hand movement. #Cool

So click above to watch, try it out, practice and have fun!! Fun, we say!! That's what this is all about. There are so many creative ways to use this 3-D option - open your mind. Not sure even how to get going on Snapchat? No worries. Click here to START HERE at the beginning.

SNAPCHAT HACK: HOW TO DRAW IN LIGHT COLORS

April 4, 2016

We sure love as many options as possible in life, am I right? So we wanted to share how to get even more COLOR options as you create your awesome Snaps. Click through to see this video sharing how you can draw in LIGHT COLORS - think pastels, if you will. Any color on your rainbow spectrum can become lighter by doing the following super easy action...

DRAG YOUR FINGER TOWARDS THE LEFT OF THE SCREEN
(But NOT to the edge - that's how you get white)

Just pick your color on the rainbow spectrum and drag your finger towards the left edge of the screen. You will see the color box get lighter. Just stop when you find a shade you love #Cool
