When I orderd my business cards, I must have checked for spelling like 8 times, I know how easy it is to do a simple typo that sometimes is hard to pick up on, I was so sure they were perfect for what I wanted.
So I ahd them deliverd today, first thing I did was check all the spelling, and it was fine....phewwww I thought then 10 minutes later it hit me, rather then have childrens handprints at the side which i swear i orderd I have dogs paw prints :censored: :censored:
Ive been back to the website I orderd them from and clicked on the childcare link and there are no cards under that now, I couldnt have made this big a mess up surely, every site I looked at first thing i did is look at what they had udner childcare.
So annoyed but dont know whethver to be annoyed with me or the company. I have e-mailed them but since they dont have the one im sure I orderd on there site i doubt they will do anything, guess i'll just order some more from a different site.
grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Aww Hunny! I do feel for you! When I ordered mine I was so excited to get them but when they came they were much smaller and my writing was smaller than I thought it would be so was disappointed.
To have the wrong picture on them is not good either!! I should get on the company and try to get it refuded . That has to be their mistake... I am sure you wouldnt have made a mistake like that !
Let us know if you get it sorted :)

Really sorry but i did laugh! Can you check in your order history with the company! Mind you i know a childminder that combines childminding with dog day care, so it might be worth a thought!

Well thank you Chanelle at least one of you felt for me :p to the rest of ya.
Hopefully i'll have a reply from them tomorrow, but as I said ive looked all over there site and the one I thoguht I orderd deff isnt there.
I looked at so many diff sites and had so many diff designs I think it must be a major error by me, I only orderd 100 and they wasnt that dear but that wasnt the point cant beleive how stupid I've/theyve been :blush: :blush: .
I showed a couple of minders them and they laughed but said to still use them, but i just know id end up with someone bringing there dogs round and not child and im really not a pet person.

No I didnt use vistaprint, I did look at them but the suitable desgins are ebing used by so many childminders around here so I looked else where.

I think you could still use them. It would make people paws for thought:laughing:
No seriously not meaning to sound gruff :laughing: STOP IT WENDY, it could be very retro. People always put children and small animals together in photos. I think you could get away with it.
Or is it a bone of contention SORRY:panic: Im just a wag:laughing:
No more im off to my basket no i mean bed:p

Opps! I was freading at first thinking you'd probably got them from Vista & was thinking oh oh but they do have hands!! But then read further & then saw you'd ordered from somewhere else, so was then giggling!! hehe
It will be funny to see their response :)

I agree - get on the old dog and bone and give them a taste of your bark and if that doesn't work, don't hold back on the leash let yourself go and have a good old bite:D

I remember when Brian ordered his first lot of business cards- goodness knows what teh printer was thinking (they obviously didn't know him lol) they put Brain (our surname) . I fell about laughing!!! Bri was NOT amused.
So you should be pipsqueak!!!!!
Consider my wrists well and truely slapped....:(

No Gareth i was being honest when i said i think you could use them.
Post a picture of one on here. It would be the same as putting a dinosaur or a puppy on the edge of the card. These things are associated with children. I am positive that people would think it was intentional.
Or maybe i am barking up the wrong tree. Noooooooooo. Sorry:blush:

naw - don't feel bad,you'll soon get used to our sense of humour - we are wicked but also extremely lovely and supportive. I was in a really jolly jolly mood last night (I finished my mega assignments after many hours of slog) and I was rather exuberant (love that word).
I reckon you can still use the cards, as has been said, its a deliberate mistake;) if anyone asks. Do you have a dog??? If you do thats your marketing ploy - childminder that has pets and you are showing how the two go together etc etc. If you don't have a dog?????? do you fancy one

No dont have a dog, and dont particulary want one. Im not keen on dogs and my daughter is scared of most animals, dogs/cats/rabbits/hamsters.
I got an e-mail back with my order details and sure enough I did order them :blush: :blush: :blush:
What a :censored:
nevermind how lnog its tkaing for crb, ive got plenty of time for the new cards to come.
