Be a Flamingo Tech Wallpapers

Can you believe we are half way through 2015 already? Half a year behind us, but a whole six more months for us to reach our goals for the year. As I have just come back from vacation in Aruba, I thought it would be awesome to spread the caribbean love with my community through these new tech wallpapers I put together. Of course, the original photography in the image is my own. This image was snapped on Flamingo Island, the private beach island that was part of the resort I stayed at in Aruba. The flamingos are something of an attraction and they pretty much just hang out on the island being fed by the tourists and conversing with the iguanas! What a life! Exotic creatures such as these remind us that the world is filled with beauty and color. There is no reason to go to great lengths to conform when you have a beautiful flamingo inside of you! Stop hiding your flamingo! That’s going to be my mantra for the next few months!

Here are the Be a Flamingo Wallpapers!

Life is Short – DVF Tech Wallpapers

Next week is April and I can’t believe that the first quarter of 2015 is nearly over. But you know what that means? New Tech Wallpapers! Yep, my quarterly desktop backgrounds and smartphone wallpapers are finally out and I have created something this month that I think you will truly enjoy! Let’s celebrate the coming of spring by adding some floral to our smartphones with a dash of wisdom and sass from the great Diane Von Furstenberg!

I have to attribute this wallpaper to a dear friend of mine who turned me on to this quote perhaps a year ago, but it perfectly encapsulates my view on life and why its so important to just put yourself out there and go for your dreams! Clearly there is a lot of that going on here at Charmed HQ, but I don’t have a monopoly on getting things done! You can do it too, so let these wallpapers be a constant reminder for you throughout your day, anytime you check your gadgets, that “Life is very short. Insecurities are a waste of time.”

Best Year of Your Life Tech Wallpapers

Not only is there a new month right around the corner, but in a few short days we come to the end of another year! What a fabulous year it has been for me! 2014 was filled with so many wonderful changes and exciting new adventures that I just cannot wait to see what 2015 has in store for me. Of course, it is also time for me to publish a new set of tech wallpapers for all your devices (laptop, tablet, smartphone etc)! So, I thought this time around I would design something meaningful to start the year off properly.

My Best Year of Your Life design is a refined black and bone pallet with a straight forward quote front and center. “This is going to be the best year of your life,” and you know what? It will be if you believe it! So, keep that thought at the front of your mind always with these high resolution wallpapers!

You’re a Diamond Tech Wallpapers

True story- these quarterly wallpapers are some of my favorite posts to do for many reasons! First off, I love design, and any excuse to make something pretty and fun in photoshop, well, I’m all over that! Next of course, is the fact that I love my gadgets and enjoy dressing them up in new wallpapers (and cases!) to give them a fresh new wardrobe every once in a while. Lastly, and probably less obviously, I really take creating these wallpapers seriously because I feel as though they can act as a daily reminder, even affirmation, for our lives. I don’t know about you, but the images and messages I choose to create through this wallpapers are pretty powerful to me, and when I think about the fact that my readers are using these and putting them on their phones and laptops and seeing the messages that I have crafted for them, it really makes me feel like I have done something special!

I know I normally like to theme each of these wallpapers to the season, and I thought about doing something with more of a fall color scheme, but in all honesty, I am not into fall colors so much. I find the browns, dark reds and burnt oranges a little uninspiring, so I went rogue and went for a full on color burst this time around, centered around the image of a multifaceted diamond! I feel like I have been seeing diamonds and diamond imagery all over the place lately, and I feel like diamonds can represent so much. I have seen a few quotes about diamonds all over the place also, not just the quote I use “you’re a diamond dear. They can’t break you,” but also “A diamond is just a piece of charcoal that handled stress exceptionally well.” I think these are really wonderful quotes with very powerful metaphors that we can use to inspire us in our own lives. So, I sincerely hope you enjoy these wallpapers and that you use them to remind you everyday that you have more strength than you even know, and that it is only with great pressure and under great stress that we can truly transform into something brilliant!

Spring Tech Wallpapers

You may remember that back in January I had created a set of tech wallpapers to kickstart the year! It was honestly so inspiring for me to create those images to share with you all and I decided that I had to do it again. I would LOVE to do this every quarter to sort of kick off each new season, so I have gone ahead and created a new design for you all inspired by spring! Spring means so many things to different people, but to me it will always be the time of year for boating! It’s just warm enough to spend time on the water, and still windy enough to get a nice breeze in your sails, so these wallpapers are meant to inspire you to explore and set sail in your own lives!

New Year Tech Wallpapers!

So, it’s been some time since I have made a new set of wallpapers for you guys, so I thought I would create a special design for the New Year! This quote “Start Something New” happens to be on the first page of my 2014 Kate Spade Agenda for January and I think it pretty much sums up the start of a new year! This time around I went ahead and created a Mac or Macbook Wallpaper that should fit up to a 21″ iMac, an iPad/iPad Mini Wallpaper and an iPhone 5/5s/5c Wallpaper!

Great Gatsby Inspired iPhone Background

Earlier this month I rented The Great Gatsby from my local Redbox when it was finally released onto DVD. I totally missed watching it in theaters when it came out, so I was very eager to watch it! My husband had apparently never read the book in high school, which I found to be amazing because I thought it was required reading for every U.S. Student! So, he was not at all familiar with the story which was kinda exciting. Of course I had read the book multiple times and seen the original Robert Redford rendition so I knew what to expect ever step along the way. That didn’t mean, however, that I didn’t completely enjoy the film, because I did very much. I loved the way they filmed this movie and the way they used modern music and even some CGI to really turn the traditional story upside down and feel very relevant to today’s modern society.

So, after I finished watching the film I was totally in the mood for all things roaring 20s! The heavy use of gold, scallop print everything and the slinky flapper style were roaming around my mind. Of course, I just had to turn this movie into an inspired iPhone background to share with you guys! I pulled one of my favorite Gatsby quotes and put together a modern scallop print in a gilded color for this Great Gatsby inspired smartphone wallpaper! I hope you all enjoy this as much as I do!

Inspired By Kate Spade

So if you haven’t noticed, lately I have been really into Kate Spade. This is mostly due to the fact that I am loving some of her more recent prints and designs, especially the new Literary Glasses Print! You may remember that I picked up the 2014 Agenda in the print in August and every now and again I have been getting glimpses of new products that are in the works! Just this last weekend I popped into my local Kate Spade NY Store, yes to visit the Beau, and I walked out with a beautiful new iPhone 5/5s case in, you guessed it, the literary glasses print! I was so excited to find it because I had not seen the case anywhere online. If you get the promo emails from Kate Spade you will know that yesterday they finally released some of their new bookish designs, including the case on their site! So, yesterday I was so excited to see all the new fun accessories that I decided to make some wallpapers based on the print for my devices. I made an iPhone 5/5s/5c background (that I am sure will work on other iPhone models and many other cellular devices) and also a desktop background for my Macbook Pro. After sharing the designs with some friends who also like Kate Spade, I decided that I should just post them to my blog because I know many of the ladies who read here also love her designs as well! I hope you guys enjoy!
