Tools that make adding quotes to images easy to connect Social Media

Last updated on 10/27/2013 By Catherine Tatum Catherine Tatum

Photographs with quotes and quote images are some of the top ways that visitors connect with me.   Many times this is how they arrive at the Classic Legacy website.  I want to share with you the tools that I have found to be the most helpful to create quotes that can be used on Pinterest, Facebook, Twitter, Google Plus, and Instagram   ……and by the way these are the top  social media channels for me.

Picmonkey for Your Computer

Picmonkey is an application that can be used at this time only on your computer.    It is easy to use and allows you to edit your own photo or to create a collage.   There are many overlays and text choices available.    I know how to use Photoshop….just a little but really Picmonkey makes everything so easy that for most applications it is my choice.   I want to show you some examples of quotes that I’ve created with Picmonkey.

Secret to getting ahead Mark Twain
This quote has been repinned 167 times! It has been liked 32 times and I created it less than one month ago. I’ve found that everyone loves the chalkboard background and simple text.
Autumn is Second Spring quote
I added this quote today. I like to create quotes that reflect the seasons.

Studio Application for your Phone

The Studio app for iphone is new.   I began noticing on Twitter the hash tag #madewithstudio.    I wondered what that was and discovered a jewel!    It is SO easy to work with and although you can add extras for 99 cents I am totally pleased with the free version for now.   I’ve found that it is so easy to create text over a photo on my phone or add overlays such as shapes, textures, frames, crops,doodles, emblems, and ribbons.  Studio has also made it super easy to share what you make to Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, Email, and your own camera roll.    One tip to remember when working with Studio is to be sure to click on all the little dots and icons.   They all mean something or take you to a new tool within Studio.  Here are some of the images and quotes that I’ve created with Studio.

Never let success get to your head
I saw this quote and wanted to make it for my Pinterest board. I did this about 5 days ago and already 12 people have repinned it.
Dogwood Christmas in September
I see this dogwood tree out my office window. It really is Christmas in September. The Studio App made it so easy to create text over this photo. You an choose any color of text.
Enjoy a Beautiful Day
This is a Missouri sunrise. I took this photo as I was leaving the farm recently. It seemed appropriate to wish everyone a beautiful day. I posted this first to Facebook and Instagram. I don’t always post all the photos to all the social media channels.
Custom for You Bottle Stopper
Sometimes I put text over images of Classic Legacy gifts. Our marble wine bottle stoppers are made “Custom for You”.
How Lucky I am Winnie the Pooh
This is quote that has been repinned on Pinterest 136 times. Winnie Pooh is a source of great wisdom. Be sure to follow me on Pinterest. Click on this photo to get the link.

I encourage you to use both Picmonkey and Studio.   You will be glad to see how easy it is to create quotes.   Everyone loves quotes and it is a really good way to connect.
