    Default Scrapbooking help please

    I'm looking for a scrapbooking kit to give as a present to involve a wedding and family life - does anyone know of any good outlets/kits?

    Can't help either I'm afraid. I did buy a couple of nice scrapbooks in Ryman's many moons ago, but I don't even know if Ryman's still exist.

    Always look on the bright side, if you can't find it then polish up the dull side.

    It's for the daughter of my friend who has cancer. He has just had a major operation and he is not doing too well. He and his partner have been together for years, but they have decided to get married and I wanted something to give to their daughter who is 11 so that she can make a scrapbook of the day and memories of her family. I thought she would like something like this because she loves to craft.

    At bless them all, that's a lovely idea and I'm so sorry for them. I know you've mentioned them before (he was a builder?) but I'm ashamed to say it had slipped my memory. I bought some large blank "scrapbooks" (don't do scrapping myself at all) to put piccies in for my own kids so they have a record of family, one was small floral pattern in pale grey & cream, and the other two were a bold paisley style. I got mine last year from Springfields Shopping Outlet in Spalding (http://springfieldsshopping.co.uk/) but there doesn't seem to be access to the actual stock at the shop. I don't know if that's the kind of thing you might want Deefy but the only other things I've seen are traditional wedding albums. There must be something maybe Artisan that would fit your bill?

    ooh that's nice PP, & she could easily add pages iater on.

    Just realised I'd kept that page open on C&C and there's more Albums on there if you want to have a look, different styles and colours.

    I'm so sorry to hear the treatment isn't going to well for him Deefers. I remember you posting about him before - I think he was going through chemo around the same time as my hubby.
    That's really thoughtful of you to try and do this for the family. Hope you find something suitable.
