Feeling so mad, I ordered from Create & craft ( Grand Calibur plus lots of other stuff) on 24th July and after numerous emails was told order had been dispatched 2nd September, long story but told today that I had been refunded, when I looked into it, it was less my membership fee and less P&P. So b*****y annoyed. Got on the phone again, and they dont know their a***es from their e****ws. Who wants to be a member of a club that I am now told, dont deliver to Spain, even though , on their website they deliver worldwide!!!!!! Grrrrrrr I cant describe how I am feeling at this moment in time, I could screw someones head off!!!!!!
Anyway, as promised to John Next Door here is my card for today.
These are from recycled Christmas cards. I had a browse around on Pinterest ( (recycled Cards) and the actual website is here ) and saw this idea. You cut the image out and punch holes and then crochet around.

I don't blame you for being mad Wendy, I would be too. That is appalling service, I have heard bad things about them in the past.
ReplyDeleteYour card is gorgeous, such a great way to recycle cards. Your crochet frames look wonderful
Take care

C&C promise a lot but do not deliver on them. I am surprised they do not post out to Spain I am sure a lot of Ex pats would love to be able to order from them.
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of recycling cards and the crochet work is amazing, great idea.
Take it easy girl.

Can understand that you're annoyed!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous crocheting though :)
Hi Wendy
ReplyDeleteAfter what poor Val experienced with Gelligate, that doesn't surprise me. I ordered a couple of bits Monday, which arrived yesterday, no problems but they sent me 3 emails on different days saying order dispatched. Then they sent an email today to tell me it had been delivered. . . . .I know, I've been using the bloomin stuff!
Back on track. . . . . Lovely cards and fab crochet. Try not to stress about C&C.

Hi Wendy. I so love the crocheting now made into a card. You are such a clever thing.
ReplyDeleteJoin the club with C+C. They are the worst after sales ever. I have things delivered out here all the time from other companies. Very rarely is there a problem but if there is it's sorted. C+C take months faffing and it never reaches a satisfactory conclusion. See what you've done - you've started me off again when I'd just calmed down!!
Take care Wendy, it's not good for the blood pressure.
Love Val x
Good morning Wendy, hope you have calmed down a little. What a horrible experience, C&C and Ideal World can be a right pain. I have had trouble with them in the past.
ReplyDeleteI love your wonderful cards, what a great idea. I let the boys make cards with last years cards but never thought of doing that myself. Off to have a rummage to see what is in the boys Bit Box.
Have a great weekend
Hugs

Terrible service Wendy and I am not surprised that you lost it, I would have done the exact same thing. Anyway, away from the rubbish, your cards are beautiful and I just love your crocheting. Hugs, Jen x
