Who of us is left? So many seem to have gone, but there might be some newbies around (Peachy waves hopefully).

Do we want to organse something? happy to do it, if any interest, really need to get motivated again.

dh has just informed me that the pictures aren't good enough using flash, so can't be taken until sat, but i will make him do the pictures then.

sunchowder · 25/01/2007 14:58

I too am remiss, I am overwhelmed with other things right now and haven't started on this yet.

Fubsy · 25/01/2007 22:37

Is there still time - I havent taken a picture yet.

Fubsy · 26/01/2007 00:09

Damn, forgot to put my name on mine. Its the vaguely brown attempt at a scrapbook page.

Soupy, your pages are lovely!

SoupDragon · 26/01/2007 12:46

I think I'm addicted... I've just done another one I have a whole huge box of childhood photos to get through...

Your's is fab, fubsy!

Fubsy · 26/01/2007 14:50

Soupy, thank you.

Did you say you made your own backing paper with the teddy's head on it? Is it hard to do? I love the effect.

now dh is at home ill, so it will take superhuman strength to ease him off the sofa & into action. i WILL get him to sho wme how to load the pictures so that i don't have to be a pathetic girly waiting for my man to help me with the technical part!

SoupDragon · 26/01/2007 16:17

LOL @ Angel

Kicks Whizzz and whacks her over the head with some clog paper.

Yes, Fubsy, I took a photo of the bear's head, then I played in Photoshop and chopped out everything bar the bit you can see (never done this before either so I had to play about to get it to work!) Then I pasted it into MS Publisher and used the option to recolour the picture before copy/pasting it repeatedly. I was rather impressed - I think it was the recolouring that made it work so well.

SoupDragon · 26/01/2007 16:18

I printed off two versions - one on white paper and one on a square of a darker shade I printed first and put back through the printer IYSWIM!

Whizzz · 26/01/2007 18:22

The clog paper worked !

I've added mine now, I'm so into beads now that I chose that, rather than cards this time. Its very simple - see what you think

SoupDragon · 26/01/2007 18:29

Hurrah! Very nice

I started mentally designing lariat style curtain tiebacks for when you to branch out into interiors by the way. I really really need to get a life!

Whizzz · 26/01/2007 18:35

ooo tie backs !! Im already venturing into glasses cords

PeachyClair · 26/01/2007 19:38

oh dear I missed my own deadline

Those of you who know what happened will I hope understand- my Ds3 was dx'd with autism this week and refused a place at the locals chool, so its not only been hectic but a bit upsetting this week.

However I will do itthis weekend and upload it, the stuff is in the kitchen all ready. If that's OK with everyone?

(Whizzz- I know I have to post your money! Sorry! really apologise)
