uh oh problems have occured

I have had a lot of problems while trying to export my files into the right format as my water mark on the pages isnt formatting right and making the whole book look rubbish.
So I had to re do the background and make sure that when i exported it to single pages that it matched up to each page propery!
After doing that it worked fine and I could send it off =) yay

Its that time. I need to think about what printer company I will be using. Aaron and Elliott have gone to Howard up in Wincheap so I think I will be taking my finished book up to him.

Starting with Robert Opie

Robert Opie was one of the key collectors. I chose to look at his book "Sweet Memories" because he has wide range of confectionery collectibles and just looking through the book I took in so much history.

Here is a snipit of what is in the book and some of the images I might use.


Here is a little video of me talking about Robert Opie and how brilliant his book and findings are.............. =)
