Cheap Photo Processing

Jessops have cheap deals on photo processing at the moment. Short notice as the offers run out on the 20th, but I thought it was worth letting you know in case it's of any use for printing out photos to scrapbook. I've just ordered all our wedding photos (over 900) as 6x4 plus lots of the nicer ones as 7x5.

The offers are:

6x4 prints 3p each

7x5 prints 5p each

10x8 prints 50p

They also have 40% off canvases and a few other offers as well.

Postage is £1.99 I think or you can have them delivered to a Jessops store for free.

Hope that's of use to someone x

I've not managed to do much craftwise this week as I've been battling with a mamouth photobook with lots of our wedding photos in. They look lovely when they're done but take days to get sorted on the website. Andy's started night shift so I'm limited to quiet crafting during the day at the moment! I have a lovely cupcake stamp from Rainbow Studios that I can't wait to play with but I think it'll have to wait until the Newton Crop on Sunday.

Lots of Pictures

Quite a few cards to post this time as it's weeks since I've put any pictures on. I must admit having Diva has severely cut down my crafting time. It's been a busyish month with events tho so I've made a few cards. Unfortunately the colours have come out very oddly in the photos - I'm not sure why.

21st Birthday card for my sister Suzie

The background is organza ribbon wound round the card blank and the image is a free digi stamp from Little Claire

This birthday card for my Mum uses one of the free images from Digital Two for Tuesday I loved the vintage look and the fact that it was a more intricate image than I usually use. It reminds me of the view from the holiday flat they have in Lyme Regis.

I used my Craft Robo to make this card for my Godfather's Ruby Wedding Anniversary. I love making cards that are that bit unusual. This one folds flat to go in the envelope but has a stand to make it stand upright.

Another vintage image from Digital Two for Tuesday this time for our Mother's Day cards. I can see myself using this image lots. I had a play and coloured it in all different combinations with Promarkers.

The bottom is done with the Papermania daisy border punch which I love but wish coped better with thicker cardstock.

Finally a birthday card for my sister-in-law April.

I saw the idea on this blog and loved it so much that I made several more to keep in the emergency box (for when I'm disorganised). I need to make some cards to sell on the Torbay M.E. Support Group stall at the Preston Picnic in July - I might make some of these I think.

Diva's doing well. She's growing quickly - she's put on 2kg in the last month (which is about right luckily) and is definitely developing her personality. Shes still very timid with people unfortunately so that's something we'll have to keep working on. We start adolescent puppy training class at the end of the month which will be interesting.

It's a hard life!

I'll leave you with a picture of her doing an impersonation of Ricky Hatton in his fight with Manny Pacquiao!
