I love sharing with you!
You might be a fan of cloud art..
you know.. those pretty shapes that are constructed completely out of words.
Like this one ~
♥
Now, you could copy mine, cut it out and frame it.. by why would you?
When you can make your own!
Now, wouldn’t this make a sweet personalized gift?
♥
With the Tagxedo software, you can make your very own designs!!
Mine came from my blog post: “Rose Petal Sugar Body Scrub”.
♥
Did I tell you how easy it is?!
You begin with a link to a webpage that you like (hint: choose a love poem by Shakespeare for Valentine’s Day)
You can use your twitter account (I had trouble using this feature) or any of the other options offered.
If you select “Create” you can even upload your own list of words or paragraph!
That gives you more control over the words that are chosen.
Then you choose a shape, I chose the “Heart”. Choose orientation, I choose “Any”.
And chose any Font and Theme.. none of this matters to much, because once it generates your Cloud Art,
you can change it again.
♥
Ta-da!!
It generates your Cloud Art and then on the left-hand side there are the same options.. and more!
I selected the straighter Heart shape
and changed my Theme and Font, etc.. until I was pleased with the end result.
Then just clicked Save, Image and whatever size I wanted.
Because mine is for the web, I chose a png image.. the large 16 MP size and then scaled it down here.
♥
So there you go.. make a tiny cloud art for your teacher, frame it and gift it for Valentine’s Day!
Make a massive one for yourself and stick it on your fridge!
Make one for your partner!
Make one for your nursery!
Make one for your kids!
Make one for your friend!
Make one for your boss!
{ easy on the choice of words there, buddy }
Make one for your puppy using a wikipedia page..
It’s Free!
It’s Easy!
It’s Fast!
That’s pretty cool. I was about to bow to your design abilities to do this “by hand” so to speak, but that doesn’t in any way lessen how cool this is and that you figured out how to do it and add your creative flair to it! A great idea for a Valentine, and you could print it out, add it to handmade paper, embellish further…on and on! 🙂
Thanks!! Very cool
The dog one is gorgeous but I think I like the sound of making one for Valentine’s Day with the romantic words of Shakespeare xx
This is very cool! Thanks 🙂
That dog one is especially adorable, I love this 😀
So cool!
Cheers

This is the coolest application ever! I love it! It would be fun to do with children, too. I am definitely going to see what I can do with this. 🙂 Thank you for sharing all about it. I

Great cloud art! Thanks!
How cool is that? I love it, it’s so personal! Thank you.
Barbara, that’s wonderful! Thanks for the pointer! xx
What a great idea, Barb! Thanks for letting us know about this software. I think that’s something I could have fun with. I love words and letters, and the finished artwork is eye-catching.
How gorgeous are these ? I love the dog one !
Barbara, didn’t know that this was called cloud art .. learn something new everyday – love the heart with the tail. Very pretty. I love you romantic heart and soul, because you have it – before and after Valentine too. *smile
This is so fun! I have to take a few minutes and make one for Buddy-mans best friend.
Oh my goodness, Smidge! Just in time, this is going to make an awesome birthday present for one of my besties!
