I don't have any control over what Craftcrave posts on their site as to what freebies I have....there are tons of other freebies on this site.....and yes, some of my freebies do expire. Those particular freebies have been on the blog for over a year....and in the future if you would like me to "explain" to you....how about you email me or leave your name?
Please be happy with the freebies that these artists are nice enough to give you...for some of us who can't afford to buy them..these are appreciated...Thanks for all you do!
ReplyDeleteSorry and disappointed to see that there are still many unappreciative people out there. I don't understand how people feel they have a right to complain when the artists give so generously of their talent, time and hard work at no charge to us. I am extremely thankful for these freebies as it greatly helps with my very limited pocketbook. Paulette, please do not take the selfish comments to heart. They're not worth it. There are many of us who are grateful for your generosity of freely sharing your work with us. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

I have just recently discovered your site and I LOVE IT. I can't believe the excellent quality that you give away for FREE. Very grateful!!
ReplyDeleteWow- seriously.....! I love your creativity and word art...and you are one of the most inspiring and giving people I know.....I hope you know how much you are appreciated by so many and can brush off the negative remarks of a couple!
ReplyDeleteWhat a bummer Paulette...more of these emails, really?!
ReplyDeleteToo bad there's not a "spam" filter for "disgruntled/ungrateful" commments.
: ) Thanks from the rest of us for all your AWESOME & generous Freebies!
Paulette, thank you for all you give us.
ReplyDeleteI failed yesterday to 'get' all of the vintage words (I got kisses!). No way would I even think of complaining to you. Unless it was to kick myself in the tush! :)
You are so generous with your talent. I'm sorry there are those who feel entitled and need to complain. I wish I could kick them in the tush.
What is wrong with these people?!! You give and give and give and it still isn't enough! I agree with the comments of the other ladies - I am so appreciative of your generosity in providing incredible freebies as well as keeping the prices of the images in your shop so reasonable. Just know there are more of us that appreciate you than those grumpy critical others.
ReplyDeleteWOW - I can't imagine complaining anonymously that you didn't get something for free! seriously!...I love everything you do for your readers Paulette - all the freebies; all the extras in club and the help you provide when I just don't always get paypal (lol)! Your name should be the definition of generous in the dictionary!
ReplyDeleteSo sorry you had to deal with such rude behavior, Paulette; I know it can be disappointing and discouraging! You have always been very generous in sharing your talent and creativity, and we're very grateful! Thank you for all the time and work you put into sharing your images with us!!!
ReplyDeletePaulette, I agree that you should be the definition of "generous", and "gracious", and "guarnteed to make you smile". Your work is the bomb. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
ReplyDeletePaulette I am not even going to write anything because I think there isn't anything I could add that hasn't already been said. The only thing I can add is a BIG Thank you from me!
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear that there is people that complains because a freebie has expired... You have tons of freebies and everyday you share a new one.... you are amazing.
ReplyDeleteI say thank you becase I can´t buy but I can use freebies in my cards and you are a very generouse artist!!!
Paulette, I am so grateful for each and every "freebie" that I have obtained on your site. I try very hard to leave my "appreciated thanks" every time I download one. And, if I miss out on an image that expired etc. I certainly wouldnt think of making it YOUR problem. I'm so sorry others are not thankful for all of your generosity. I love your site. Thanks again for all you do.
ReplyDeletewow i am lost for words, you are the best and give away lots and lots, i can never thank you enough,

I wish I could tell these complainers that if they complain too much we not only have unhappy artists who stop giving freebies but also we could eventually lose the freebie generator sites. I found TLC through one of such sites and I couldn't be happier! Thank you Paulette not only for the freebies you are generous with, thank you also for the fantastic word sets you create! I hope today is a wonderful day for you!
ReplyDeleteEveryone has expressed my sentiment exactly. THANKS for all you do for us Paulette!
ReplyDeletePaulette - everyone's said everything I would say! Your word art is stunning and you give so freely and generously!!!! Sometimes I miss out on some of your goodies either because I'm not near my computer or because of the time difference between us ... well that's my fault not yours!
ReplyDeleteI truly hope that you know how much I and plenty of other crafters value your unselfish generosity. You enable us to put fabulous word art, images and papers on our craft projects either for free or very cheaply (through your monthly clubs) and for that, here's my huge THANK YOU!!!!!!! Hugs, Helen x
I'm really amazed that there are people out there that are complaining that your freebies expire. I've never come across another blog where the artist is sharing so much wonderful art for free. If I miss out on a freebie, it's simply because I couldn't keep up with you, but that's MY problem, not yours. Thanks so much for all you do and for sharing your talent with the blogging world.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness! Anyone who uses Craft Crave to hunt for freebies ought to know it is anything but reliable! It's a computer generated program that picks up anything that "it sees" as "free" - that can be a word somewhere in the text! And, no designer or shoppe sends CC a list of freebies - that is a freebie search engine! i can't believe you got castigated for something that has nothing to do with you! Anyway, i am always grateful for the freebies here - since i use them for scrapbook pages and not for cards, i don't take EVERYTHING, but the things i choose are those that work well for me - such as the fancy Love WA and he Monopoly subway art! Thanks for those and keep smiling! Newbies who don't know how the system works will always make nonsensical complaints - don't let them get you down!
ReplyDeleteDear Paulette,
ReplyDeleteHopefully all these words from your fans can make up for what those %#@$ said to you. THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for all your great, inspiring and generous gifts you're giving us all year through!
Love,
Linxx
Paulette..so sorry you are going through this. The things people complain about...what a shame!
ReplyDeleteKeep your head up and know that you are appreciated and loved!!!
Smile..and have a blessed day~

I'm sorry that you had complaints about your freebies. I have been following you for over a year and I appreciate it the freebies you give out. Thanks for all you do.
ReplyDeleteSo appreciative of all you do - thank you! :)
ReplyDeletePaulette, I'm so happy with the freebies, because I really can't afford them. I wish more people were happy instead of complaining. Sorry, I don't no what to say more, because English is not my native language. I'm thanking you and all the artists that makes it possible to give freebies away.
