    Someone else might have replied to this by now!

    This is what I do - I go to Control Panel and open the fonts folder - I then download the font file from the net but click on open not save. It will open in Winzip or similar and when it does you just drag the TTF file into your open font folder and rop it there. I tried it with the Snowperson one and used it in Word with no problems.

    It still wont work :( Nevermind i have found loads now, Thanks anyway

    Jazabelle Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou to you too :) my stash swap parcel is gorgeous. The papers are perfect for my simple christmas cards as they have small designs, and the jingle bells are so cute.

    You have both been very generous and I really appreciate your kindness xx

    No problem! Glad it arrived safely, and I look forward to seeing your makes! :D

    Rusty, Flourgirl made you a card and you said you liked the papers. (the ones I sent with her magnolia tilda win).

    She asked where I bought them from, so she and you could buy them. As they are probably discontinued now, I sent you both a selection of mine. :A

    I hope that clears it up for you.

    Thankyou, that was a lovely and kind thing to do, they are so pretty and made my day! xxxx What are the papers called?

    Flying Fresion - Hope you are on the mend soon xxx

    Dragonllew - Sending hugs xxx not going to say dont worry as you can tell you are worried, keep your chin up xxx

    KMS - Have you looked on Da Font? they have some fab fonts there, thats where I always go .. I have even used them on my Robo ...

    Well done to our winner :j what a fab prize ... what will you chose?

    well think I am caught up, sorry if I have missed anyone ...

    Been busy, had dentist and dr appointment and was supposed to be at the hospital ... Dentist looked and said it was healing and the antibiotics had worked well and he would see me in 4 months :j, Dr said do you know you have a hospital appt :mad: why could they not do that over the phone instead of wasting mine and his time!! :mad: then went back to the Dentist as DS has a lump in his mouth, not an abcess like I thought but part of his filling had come loose and rubbed the inside of his gum!! quick fix and he is fine now :j ... so headed upto Toys R us, to let DS spend his birthday money (£50) and ended up spending £80 :rotfl: and that was with a £5 voucher!! ... he is obsessed with lego!!

    Flourgirl - How close to Chesterfield are you? I know I should know as I picked you up and headed that way but I honestly can't remember ... is anyone else in that area? I am heading there next weekend to stay with my mum for the weekend as OH is Offshore :(

    Mazcabs - can you not just print it on?

    Unfortunately no as my printer wont take the card that they come on, thats why I thought you guys may know some way of doing it.

    Evening Everyone,

    Sorry for the lack of personals I'm a bit manic at the moment, I have been on a safeguarding course all day and my brain is honestly mush,

    I can't remember who said about the My craft room, it is good I picked one up on Sunday at a car boot, it had loads of extras with it including the circle cutter, I'm just waiting on the cutting mat to arrive first so I can use it, I have had no time to catch up on blogs either, hopefully things will quieten down next week, I am looking forward to going to the stitch and craft show in Exeter on Saturday though, hopefully they will have some nesties,

    catch you all later
    Take care Jo x
