iPhone Bazzil Basics App

Yes...even scrapping can be easier thanks to the iPhone!! Hi, it's Diane here and Lee has asked me to call by and share my latest super cool scrapping discovery.

Just recently I was browsing the latest iPhone apps (still a kid at heart...love the free games lol) and low and behold I discovered Bazzil has an app. So being the iPhone/Bazzil fan that I am I bought it. And it really is great. The Bazzil app contains over 500 cardstock colours across all textures. For each colour it supplies details including name, texture, RGB & CMYK value.
So here's a run down of how it works. You can select from 6 options in the main menu.



Cardstock by Name
is a list of Bazzill colours alphabetically. Here you can also create the perfect color palette with monochromatic, complementary, triadic, analogous and split-complementary colour combinations.

Cardstock by Colour is a list of Bazzill by colour families.



Cardstock by Family is a list of Bazzill grouped by texture family.

Colormatch a Photo is where you can match a photo to cardstock. This is where the fun really starts!!



Here you can create a palette by selecting the colours you want to use from your photo. Then you can get the names of the cardstock you need.



And there they are all ready to be ordered from Remember When. Now how cool is that!!! In this case I have used a photo already on my iPhone. I was also thinking, if you where scrapping with friends and didn't know what colours to use use then you could snap a shoot of the photo and drop into the colourmatch!!! Again, pretty cool :)


Saved Palates is where you save the palates you have created till you are ready to place your order!


Matchmaker (sorry no single hot men here) is where you can find the matching colours to thousands of popular pattern papers. Including our favourite, American Crafts Backyard.




And finally here is the page I created using my palette for the above photo. The only change I have made to the palette is the background, I have used Kraft.


So if you have and iPhone or are thinking of getting one this is a great app to look into. iPhone apps can be found in the iTunes store. iTunes is a free program you can download here. From here you will find the App store. The Bazzill app is $12.99.

What a great way to help you choose and order your Bazzill colours from Remember When.
If you have any questions pop me an email via Lee and she will pass it on.

Cheers and happy scrapping
Diane

  2. Yes Keri-An it does cost and it is fun. The free I believe Di was referring to was the i-tunes download.
