The newsagents next door to the picture framers do colour copies

Ash do you have a digital camera?

You can just photograph the photograph, works well (even the pro's often do it!).

If not how many photos you got, I know a very nice man with a flatbed scanner that would probably be able to scan 'em and let you have files suitable for printing...

thank you xx

Depending on cost u can get all in one printer for about £30 these days and that has a scanner on it good excuse for an upgrade
As a sugestion would it be better keeping the photos in black and white keep it the way it was back then

[Ash]

i really wouldnt need the scanner as its a one off thing

the photos arent in black in white

parents arent that old lol:lol:

Ash, have you tried Tugmistress? I'm sure she would be delighted to help out :)

Bews do lovely photcopies on glossy paper for £1 and you could get a few photoes done on one page then cut them, or you could have them enlaRGED. Bews is your nearest.

Ash Bews do do very good copies...are you doing a full scrapbook?I make scarpbooks for pleasure and they make a great gift!There is so many things you can use in scrapbooking to make a page come to life.I am not sure if this is your first attempt at it or if you have done it before but I bet once you make one you will want to do it again and again x
