Message from Monique...
On a personal note, I would like to request a moment of silence for our messagboard friend and fearless Bug Guide leader, Admin Becky. She was let go by PC yesterday due to "workforce reduction". She is the last person they should have cut, as she made an enormous difference on the messageboard, which is a huge profit machine, and was always there to answer everyone's questions and take care of issues. An amazingly valuable asset to PC, and not replaceable. Admin Becky, you will be greatly missed, and the world of Cricut will not be the same without you!!!
Great card! I love your colors and details!

I LOVE coffee and this card would definitely made me better. I am sure it will work the same way for Becca's sister.
ReplyDeleteI love your card! Sometimes a cup of coffee or tea is not just a drink but a few minutes to relax and ponder whether it be about friends, life, work or a task to be completed. It's also a great socialism tradition. TFS

Sweet card! And I own and LOVE this cartridge. I drove 40 mins during my lunch hour to buy it the day it was out. Have been using it ever since!
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about Admin Becky! Layoffs stink! Espeically when its a good employee. I have been having the most difficult time getting some help w/my Gypsy. I think I got a lemon :(
This card is wonderful and I love the paper that was used! Also I hope your sister's surgery went well today.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to hear about Admin Becky...I wish her the best.
You inspired me today to make a card for my anniversary today, instead of buying one. Thanks.

Really nice card Becca. The more creations I see done with Kate's Abc cart the more I want that cartridge.
ReplyDeleteBecky will be missed she's an amazind asset PC let go. There loss. TFS
I am so very saddened to hear about Admin. Becky. This is what happens when companies grow too fast and forget that their most valuable assets are their loyal and taletd employees. PC already has enough customer service issues. I have noticed-lack of common sense in many of their decisions.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet card! I'm sure your sister will love it.
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet card! Love it. Yes, I was very sad to hear about Becky - she will be sorely missed - what was pc thinking!
