You can use word or publisher and use clipart but the ones i have done recently have been done using picnik which is really easy to use and has some fab illustrations and text types. If you look on my blog http://scratchycatcrafter.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html

There is a link and also another link to how to use it. i only used it for the first time a few weks ago and i love it:D

I am looking for some computer help!
Tranmererovers very kindly sent me bagtoppers which she had made for reindeer poop, and I am trying to do something similar for snowman poop. The way she had created the toppers, the poem appears upside down on the page, so that when you print it and fold it in half, you have the picture and title on the front and the poem on the back ( I hope that this makes sense!) My question is, how do I make the poem appear upside down - I've tried all the options on the keyboard I can think of without success!

I make my own version of penguin poop & snowman poop in excel file, took a lot of faffing about to get text, picture etc correct, I can email you if you like. That way, all the settings are there for you and you can add your own text and pictures. I got 4 toppers on an A4 piece of card. HTH x

I got a phone call tonight telling me that I cannot have a stall at the switch on of the village lights unless its for an organisation, they are not allowed to give stalls out if its for your own profit I was pretty gutted TBH but....there is an indoor car boot sale locally this Sunday :eek: Will I have everything done in time, I am still waiting on my SU punches and then thats when the fun will start, also have 100 CDM miniatures to re-cover :eek:, perhaps I should start now??:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
