DIY Instagram Photo Effect

Raise your hand if you’re addicted to the Instagram app…. ME TOO! I love everything about it, but that’s a post for another day! I recently ran into the tutorial below on how to create some of the Instagram looks using Photoshop. I thought you might find them interesting as well. Granted, they aren’t going to be as speedy as clicking a button on your phone, but definately worth trying out!
