I STAND CORRECTED

WOOHOOO

I nearly have my gypsy back to nearly working properly again.....

I decided to actually ring PROVOCRAFT themselves to see if they could help me with my gypsy.
Considering I was ringing from Australia, I really didn't have to wait long at all...

My waiting time was about 10 odd minutes or so, in my books that's FANTASTIC.

I had to ring a cpl of times cause the gypsy would work when I was on the phone talking to the support crew and play up when I was off.   grrrrrrr  not happy Jan...

I have to say the 2 ladies I spoke to Keli and Kirsty were FAB in walking me through my problems with the gypsy....

Now to try and load the free cartridges back on...   Was told the Smiley Card cartridge is a little more difficult, but I can do without if my gypsy is trouble free.

FINGERS CROSSED EVERYONE MY GYPSY SHOULDN'T GIVE ME ANY MORE GRIEF.

HAVE A FANTASTIC DAY PPL.

Hoot Hoot

It's Thursday and the first day of March.... Yikes summer is officially over and autumn has started with a noice warm 30 odd degrees. 

Here's a colour challenged card I made for http://fantabulouscricut.blogspot.com.au/2012/02/challenge-me-monday-100.html  - purple, green and turqouise.

 So owls being the in bird of the moment, I thought I'd use the cute owl from Create a Critter, letter and number from Birthday Bash.  Cardstock from SU, Bazzill, a little bling for the bow with some Liquid Pearls, ribbon from SU (retired I think), ribbon stamp image from the many rubber stamps I have.

Cupcake

Now who doesn't like cupcakes.....   With all those designer cupcake makers out there, I'm sure there's one to suit everyone.   :D   I'm entering this card with lots of bling into the challenge #52 over at http://celebratetheoccasion.blogspot.com.au/  - Birthday (must use bling).  So here's my version of a posh cupcake...

Get messy

Good morning everyone,

Here's a card I've made for challenge #45 http://birthdaysundaes.blogspot.com.au/  - Get Messy Birthday card.

Tim Holtz - Distress Stain, Ink

White cardstock

Time flies

Arggggg my gyspy is driving me crazy......  But I managed to cut some wings from the Indie cartridge when they were giving free cartridges when you were registering them.

So here's my version of wings and time.  The wings were not so clearly cut, but I don't mind the look, it just looks more feathery and dimensional.  The saying and boat was stamped on the back of a sticker packet from the kids stash and I left the remaing sticker on to give it a illusion of clouds in the distance...

SOS - Gpsy getting BLACK SCREEN when TURNED ON

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!

Hi everyone,


Has anyone had PROBLEMS with their GYPSY????

This last month has been so FRUSTRATING when I go to turn on my gypsy. 

1 It comes on like it suppose too
2 I'm lucky if I manage to go through the rebooting for it to work
3 I get BLACK SCREEN OF DEATH

I've been trying to go through the Cricut Sync and redo the whole thing and my gypsy is not able to link up!!!!

I've read that if I have to buy a NEW GYPSY I'd need to send it to the States for PC to have my original gypsy serial no put on so I can link all my cartridges back on...  :/ 



DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY IDEA HOW TO FIX THIS PROBLEM???
