    Rusty - I don't think you spoiled it at all with the writing!! Its such a personal and thoughtful present - I'm sure they'll love them.
    Mary - what a horrendous day, sounds like something that would happen to me, I am always having trouble with my passwords.
    SaucySecrets - I just wondered how you were getting on with your baby scrapbooks.

    Hi,
    Thankyou Hels, not sure what the paper is as it was just a 12x12 sheet from a local craft store then I scanned it in and printed it 3 times. There is no markings or anything on the back of it though? sorry

    I know this is a really silly question but how do you print 12 x 12 sheets??

    Where do you get the paper from as its all A4 normally!

    Furrypig - its not a silly question, I have not got the foggiest!!

    SaucySecrets - you're very welcome! Please keep posting and keep us updated as to how its progressing. I'd noticed that you'd posted an enquiry on UKscrappers - I keep reading their replies. I'll post some links if you want of some nice baby paper packs so you can get some more ideas. How on earth did you break your ankle???

    Sorry furrypig I didn't make it very clear, I started with 12x12, then scanned it in and printed it onto A4 as the frames I am using are 10X8 so have trimmed them all down both A4 and 12x12

    sorry :rotfl:
    Raising kids is like being held hostage by midget terrorists
  • My boyfriend chased me up the stairs, and i twisted it. Spent last night with him laughing at me for being such a wimp, and had the most uncomfortable night ever. He kept kicking it! Today it still hurt, but wasnt swollen or anything. Wondered into a&e while limping round town, as i can get painkillers when needed due to a spine condition, and the nurse had a look for me and sent me to xray. Four hours later, its broken, but they wont cast it up until its swollen. So now im waiting for it to swell!

    That was a bit of an essay, sorry :P
    Any help would be greatly appreciated, its turning into a huge task!

    SaucySecrets - sounds horrendous I bet your OH feels guilty now!!
  • Haha i havent moved off the bed since, just sat here at the laptop while he gets me tea and drinks, bless him.
    Just had an email from some of the other groups i help at, including a multiple birth group, saying that they love the idea. It looks like scrapbooks needing to be made is now approaching 250....got until September, but still. I cant say no, it'd make me feel terrible!
    Are you working on anything at the moment?

    SaucySecrets - 250!!!! Have you made many before??? I'm trying to make a card for the fortnightly challenge on the card making thread at the minute, but its not going well!!
  • Ive made a few pages, but it was mainly experimenting, so it'll be a challenge.
    The parents will love it though, so im feeling really motivated.
    Im sure your cards look lovely, i read through most of the crafty threads yesterday and your creations are stunning. Ill be pleased if mine look half as good!
