Thanks everyone

I took the camera off it's auto settings and swithched it to manual. That way I can adjust the aperture etc. I used the macro setting, and highlighted the image I was taking a pic of. This blurs the background slightly, making the image stand out

Brandisnap and Foxy, if you've still got the manuals for your cameras, everything about taking pics with the macro settings will be in there. If you're like me, you'd of not bothered
