Hi Everyone,
After about an hour of trying to download and update my Gypsy on my MAC, following some instructions for Mac users on the MB, and finally just giving up and going to my hubbies PC to download the synch software, I finally updated my Gypsy…..Woot Woot! So did everyone download their 6 free cartridges?
Since I had my G out and Smiley Cards on the screen I played with welding the “XO” image into a shaped card. I kept it really simple since I was just making sure everything was working fine and everything cut perfectly…
Here is the Card…
I used some cardstock (it could be SU?) that I had in my stash and some old Stampin’ Up! ribbon.
The faces I stamped with Peachy Keen Stamps
(Everyday Faces)
Have a great day…
PS I’m not sure it Provo extended the 6 free cartridge promotion? With the site being down most of the day, I’m thinking they will?
I love this Christina!Istarted working on a card from the Christmas cart.but it was so late so I am going to finish today and post it. Have a crafty day! Dina
Christina,This is adorable. I love the faces.Thanks for sharingStacy
Love this Christina, how cute. I was lucky and had no problems or wait downloading my Gypsy update.Maybe b/c i did it when you guys were all asleep. So generous of Provo Craft.xx
Hey Christina thanks so much for this cute card! I love the faces too! I was able to download yesterday evening too! So much to play with but not enough time!
I love this, Christina! It turned out so cute!
Rhonda H said…Christina, I saw where ProvoCraft is working on a CricutSync for MAC, but it is not ready yet. I would say they would have to extend the 6 free cartridges download for MAC=ies, at least!!! I was on the Cricut mb and saw that many were having problems downloading the new sync even using pc's. I have a MAC and am chomping at the bit to get the free cartridges on my Gypsy. Keep us informed of any new stuff, okay?Thanks!
This is adorable and it's exactly what I need for my stepdaughter who had surgery yesterday. We always end our texts and emails with xoxox! I'll be scraplifting this one for sure. TFS. I updated last night … 2 hours worth of time spent but it's done.hugs,eileen
This card is adorable! I updated too last night so I have two new carts that I didn't already have and this is one of them so I was busy designing and didn't have time to cut and put together. LOVE your little card!
Very cute! I want a gypsy so bad but just have to be thankful for my Create. LOL Hey Christmas is coming.
Cute card!!I have a mac and couldn't download last night – can't tell you how frustrated I am with this whole “build up the excitement and then fail to deliver”!!!jaylene
So cute! It appropriately made me smile!
Oh this is REALLY cute!! TFS!
Super Cute!!!!!
This is precious! What a great idea.
So cute… I was on ebay lastnight and on a auction for a gypsy it said 10 crts free if purchased before Nov. 30,have you heard anything about that?
I REALLY love this card as I am a BIG XO-using Gram!! (always put lots of them on cards to our DGDs since they are in Texas and we're in Missouri.) I, too, am a VERY FRUSTRATED Mac user. When will they build the link for us? When? When? (I already own four of the FREE carts anyway…but I want smiley cards sooo badly!)Also: do we know when the dancing cart will arrive?
This card is just too adorable. I'm awaiting my Peachy Keen stamps any minute now so you know I'll be scraplifting! Terrified to try to get the free cartridges on an update. I think PC said the offers only good for a few weeks. Maybe I'll be brave and try to get them later on. Thanks for sharing your great work with us.
Really cute card I'll have to try that one
cute card! i am having trouble updating my gypsy. i keep getting an error message. not sure why. is it still available today?thanksmichele
This is very cute. I too spent hours downloading, sometimes not sure if it was actually working, etc. Then Walla! I had it. Does anyone know where to get the online version of the booklets that go with these cards? AND I love peachy keen stamps.
Thank you so much for posting this Christina! I love it! The colors are yummy together. I tried to play with that cart last night, but I had a really hard time since I didn't have any reference as to what the images were except bouncing around the overlays on my Gypsy.Thanks for the inspiration….it is wonderful!
Great card… TFS!
Oh this is just too stinking cute!!! I love it. Marcie
Great card, Christina. I finally got my Gypsy updated this morning at work. Tried for several hours last night. Couldn't decide if it was my computer or Provo's website, but it would never connect to my Gypsy. Had bad storm last night so didn't have internet at home this morn so took everything to work and had smooth update. Think I see a new computer in my future.(Oh Santa, Baby!!!)Sorry about rambling. Hope to play tonight.
Very cute. My Gypsy died and they are sending me another. I have a Mac, oh no, not sure what to do!!
Looks like Elegant Eggplant and Always Artichoke, two of my favs. Darling card!
What a cute card! Can't wait to make it. I too am a Mac user and was pulling my hair out last night to update my gypsy. GRRR. I'm encouraged to read that I'm not the only one although I am anxious for them to get it fixed for the Mac. Can't believe I'm saying this but I wish I had a PC just to do the updates! 🙂
Oh I love this….will have to case it for sure…..I spend all day yesterday trying to download….didn't get it to download until last night (12:05am)or I should say this morning….
the card is very cute, but what impressed me was the quality of the photo. it is so clear and sharp. you can add digital photographer to your list of accomplishments.
Adorable card! Love the Peachy Keen stamps.
The card is so cute!! Love it!
Cute, cute, cute. In fact the cutest use of the Smiley cart I've seen yet! Enjoyed watching the Gypsy videos, and I definitely learned something new.
Adorable card Christina! I have a PC not a Mac but it took me a while to download the sync software also, not really computer savy so it took me some time, but I love all the cartriges! Michellemichelle_ward@hotmail.com
I love it. I was able to download my free carts yesterday. My problem is I always look at the images in the handbook. Smiley Cards does not have one. I would really greatly appreciate if you make more cards with it or maybe…? you could come up with some kind of a PDF file with layered images? Thanks,Tatiana
Great card and thanks for the heads up for the 6 free carts! I also got Celebrate with Flourish to finally connect! I love SU! and hope to refill my whole stash of colors someday soon! Thanks for the great blog!
He/She are so cute, cute, cute!!! Love this project. TFS.
Love it ChristineCould you give more directions on how you did it.Thanks for sharing
Christina, thank you for posting this card. I got my gypsy right after they came out and haven't really used it. This card made me want to try… so I got it out and updated it (and it all worked, YEAH!!!) I was able to weld the 2 pieces together and cut out the card base and the shadow. (I welded mine at the top) The card came out pretty cute. I used the peachie Keen face stamps also. Super cute! Thanks again for posting such a cute card.Sylvia
Hi Christina, I just got a plea from a really nice fellow crafter on my blog asking for help in sending a 3 yr. old little boy with a brain tumor some cards. I did not know where to post this as I am new to blogging. I really wanted to reach out to other fellowcrafters on her behalf. Please go to my blog to see her letter. Maybe we can make him smile! Thank you Dina
SUPER CUTE!xoxoxoxo, T
