Not So Nifty

Ok gang, it's the new year... 2011... WOW!!! So if you've read my past posts about this particular event, New Years, then you know my feelings about making resolutions on the 1st of the year. That's not to say that I didn't set some goals for this year... I totally did! One of my FIRST GOALS, is to FINALLY get some closure with this Nifty Fifties cartridge glitch!

So back in OCTOBER I contacted Provo Craft regarding the brand new Nifty Fifties cartridge I received. Within moments of opening the package and flipping through the handbook (you know you all do that too!!!!) I discovered pretty quickly that various cuts for multiple images on this cartridge are located in multiple locations. Example: The ice cream cone (and it's parts) can be found on page 57 AND page 66. There are NUMEROUS images on this cartridge that are like this, so I contacted PC immediately. I was told that they were going to work on the issue and get back to me and until then I wasn't to upload the cartridge to my Gypsy. Well, here it is going on 3 months later with no word as to whether corrections have been made and if they will be getting me a repaired version of this oh-so-cool cartridge, even an actual update would be nice. I really do love all the designs on this cartridge... it seems a pity that I haven't been able to upload to my Gypsy. It seems an even bigger pity that ProvoCraft's customer service is STILL so lacking!!! I really did have such high hopes for them thinking they had starting turning that ship around... clearly not, it's been 3 MONTHS!!! But I did finally break it out for some "Fifties" themed projects... check out the "Drive In" sign!!! Is that "far out" or what!?! There's also another great retro motel sign that I'm totally "diggin".... hahahahahhahahahhaha. I want to believe that the customer service nightmare that is ProvoCraft is worth all the wonderful images and cartridges that they pour out... I really, really do. Maybe good customer service was THEIR 2011 Resolution. We shall see!

I love the card!! It came out wonderfully. Sorry to hear about those glitches, I was eyeing this cart so it's good to have a heads-up.

What I Know... There's A REALLY Big Challenge!!!

Now I don't claim to know it all (pretty close though... JK!), but there are some things I just KNOW!!! 1. I know there are 365 days in a calendar year. 2. I know I'll never dance naked for a full moon. AND 3. Anything having to do with "crazy", "mental" or "manic" draws me like a moth to a flame. I credit #3 to my ex-husband and have decided that "crazy" is a pretty fun way to be. I won't make this a "preachy" post, but suffice it to say that in reality I am full of Love, Power and a Sound Mind. But because that is true, I take "crazy" to a really fun level and appreciate anyone else who does the same! We're all a bit crazy in one way or another and quite frankly, I think that is what separates US from the BORING!!! In the spirit of Halloween and all that is crazy and manic, here is today's fun Halloween project. I hope no one is sick of that MS Drippy Goo punch yet, because I'm no where near b...
