Hi all,
I am after a little help as I cant seem to find what I am looking for. I am after the Card based frames that you normally get with pics produced by the schools etc....
I was wondering if anyone knew of anywhere where I can get these. I am after a cheap solution to send quite a few pictures to grandparents & members of family of my kids upcoming 3rd Birthdays.
Many Thanks in Anticipation.
Do a google for photo mounts, (or just click this link (http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&client=firefox-a&channel=s&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial&hs=RxH&q=photo+mounts&btnG=Search&meta=)).
This site (http://www.photomart.co.uk/productlist.asp?M=d&RootCat=72&MenuID=4&MenuID2=&CatID=32&MC=ADWRD18) seems reasonable, and has plenty of variety.

Thanks.
I am not after mounts as Pink Fairy has provided a link to but the actual card photo frame that you place the picture into and pull out the leg from the back to place on fire places etc.
So the pic actually goes inseide the card frame and becomes a self standing item more like Matt has provided.
Thanks

Really appreciate it
Carters mounts are a bit of pain to deal with, as they don't exactly rush to get anything done.
BUT... I've yet to see anything come close to the quality. They make all the mounts out of real framing quality card with bevelled cuts and it looks the business. This also means that you can just cut the tape that holds the stand part on and pop the pic into a frame looking all pro mounted.
