    Love it. It’s not Photoshop, but that’s kind of the point. Level of difficulty is easy and intuitive. Wonderful App for graphic design novices. As an experienced Photoshop user, this App is the “Missing Piece”. I have wanted on occasion to embellish photos of grandchildren, special occasions.....But pics just sit in Photos without me ever getting around to transferring to laptop or desktop, open a Photoshop page, etc...... Overkill for a quick “memory” picture. Wow! With Design Kit, I can easily scroll through my pictures or go to an Album. You get a full page of your Photos, not a tiny window. Choose the pic and embellish away! I was surprised at the amount and quality of the features you get with the Basic Package. After I had used it a while, I spent $2.00 on brushes and access to simple, basic Designer creations. Worth it. I am now using it to make quick design sketches on an image I’ve taken a screenshot of that has ideas for for my home design. No more scribbling notes all over the picture to remember my ideas. I just create my ideas immediately on the screenshot image.
    *Get it.
    -Makes sharing memories a lot more fun.
    -Gives me super easy, immediate accessibility to create design ideas on the fly.
    *Not expensive at all, for what this App does.

  • Really nice so far!

    I’ve just noticed a few glitches when I have several stickers on my photo, but the app is super lovely!
  • Amazing!

    Elsie and team have created another brilliant app. In an hour I’ve done more work using this app on my phone than I did in the last two days on my desk top . Love love love it !
  • Fantastic app, so wonderful for poems!

    I just found this app on the App Store and took a chance on it after reading so many glowing reviews, and now I understand why there are so many phenomenal reviews: This app is an absolute winner!!! It worked so well for framing a poem I wrote for my love! And as other reviewers indicated, the $4.99 in-app purchase was well worth the money, as it gave me more fonts, and it was so nice being able to insert a red rose sticker at the bottom of my poem. Although I could not find any instructions in the app, it didn’t take me long to figure out how to use it, although some instructions would have been helpful (it’s still a 5 🌟 app, even without the instructions).

  • On the fence...

    Tbh, I went back and forth when it came to downloading this app. I’m kind of a sucker for A Beautiful Mess, and I wanted to see how this app looked and worked. For someone like me (occasionally adds to photos, not a blogger or influencer, doesn’t add a ton of photos very often), this is not really necessary and I wouldn’t mind getting my money back. That being said, it’s not awful by any means. I definitely get the same vibe from Design Kit as I do from their other apps. There’s a good number of fun stickers and different types of brushes and designs. Being able to integrate the other app is cool too. I would have liked if some of the tools were more easily accessed. It just seems a bit cumbersome.

  • Love

    Such a great app!
  • Great tool; a couple weird functional issues

    Overall this fills a gap for me in photo editing. I had been using Moca Deco before, but this has much better functionality, especially with the brushes.

    Docking a star because of some functional issues. The back and forth between A Color Story is not seamless — I’ve lost edits a couple times. The other main irritant is that resizing text requires you to enter a live text box which for some reason is taken out of the position you’ve placed it in the photo. This makes for an annoying guessing game followed by trial and error to determine correct sizing if you’re trying to fit text in a specific place.

  • A great friend for a color story or just as is!

    I’m loving the ability to add so many different fonts and stickers to my photos. Being able to link back to the a color story app is an added bonus. Well done Elsie, Emma and the ABM team on another killer app!!
  • Best app purchase of 2018

    Yet again Elsie + Emma are on top of their app game! Fun, colorful, + quirky describes this beautiful app. Beautify your photos with a ton of free options which I LOVE because so many photo apps promote lots of stickers and design tools only to find that you have to purchase all of them. Although, I do think the in app purchase packs in this app are worth every cent! It’s an an affordable photo editing tool that I highly recommend 💯 ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

  • Love it.

    I’m a huge fan of Colorstory and use it pretty much daily to edit my photos. So when I saw this was coming out and I knew I had to give it a go too. Really loving the brushes !
