Photo Collages with Picpal

In my house, we are the proud parents of two wonderful dogs. We like to call them pupstars. Now that it's October and we're gearing up for the holiday season, my little family likes to put together holiday cards. This means that the four of us have to sit still and hope that the camera catches all of us looking at the camera, hopefully.

As you might have imagined, this can be tricky with two dogs. So that's where Picpal comes in. The Picpal app is already used as a great way to create a single picture collage with all your friends, no matter how far they might live. So why not use Picpal to put together a collage of me, the hubs and the pupstars that we can utilize for a family photo?

I find that it's a lot easier -- and faster -- to take family photos with the dogs if we each have our own pup. So the hubs opened the Picpal app on his iPhone and took a selfie with our Pomeranian, Inigo. Then I opened the Picpal app on my Android and took a selfie with our American Dingo, Kelevra. I sent my photo to the hubs and we each had a collage of our family of four that we could comment on, like and even share on Facebook and Instagram for the rest of our family and friends to enjoy!

But the Picpal app is great for a variety of purposes. Going to a fashion event with your best babes and you all want to coordinate your outfits? Just take a selfie of your look, send it to your friends who also have the app, and you'll instantly create a collage with everyone's looks side by side to help make a stylish decision!

So simply download the Picpal app, add friends to join by inviting them via Facebook or SMS, then start taking selfies! You can title the collage, crop the image, edit the lighting, apply fun filters, add some text and then send to your friends!

If you're looking for an easy and fun way to stay connected with your college friends, your friends who live on the other side of the country, your relatives back home, or even the people (and animals) in your own house, then download the Picpal app for both iPhone and Android. You can get it on the iTunes store or the Google Play store.
