So I'm still working on the project for Grandma for Mother's day.

I have the pictures taken and merged to form a panorama. but I cant get them to print properly.

any suggestions?

otherwise, where can I get a 7 opening landscape frame?????

yikes this is complicated.

What program are you using for printing and what is it doing wrong?

Make sure you don't have any 'fit to page' or other kinds of options selected that would distort it.

For "Grandma" we did a six-opening frame (never could find a seven-opening one) and put the N and the D together... (So it worked for Grandma, Grandpa, and Grandpapa...)

Corinne wanted very little to do with the letters- she just wanted to P-L-A-Y! So I had to come up with creative ways to get her into the pics with the letters.... :)

i was cleaning yesterday and realized ihad a 7 opening picture holder. we got it at ikea. it isn't the fanciest. it is a film roll. you can always custom make them.. but that can get pricey. i like the idea with joining the letters. that would be just as cute..

good luck and have fun

I don't mind sharing at all! They're from this ebay seller: http://tinyurl.com/2xvkev

He shipped super fast, included a little sandpaper wedge (though I didn't need it- they were sanded well!) and two little wooden hearts to experiment on with paint.

If you want to see specific letters in that font, let me know. I got A, D, G, N, M, O, P, R, and Y.
