Oops! These are funny. I wonder how much someone gets paid to proofread?

I just remembered there was an old scrapbook sticker with a quote from "Ghandi" (misspelled).

Erika loved your blog post.

Thanks scrapperbell! It was both funny and sad to write. You see how many errors there've been when they're all in one place

I was using Crate Paper's Portrait line last night, and noticed on the Accent Cuts sheet Administration is spelled "Adminsitration." There things drive me seriously NUTS. It's so easy- just pass it around the office so different eyes can catch different things. Or hire a focus group to preview- many of us would love a peek at new product not yet released in exchange for a little editing. I can't stand it when I buy something with errors.

I have a BG alphabet that is missing a letter too... I think it was "j" and it was a 12x12 page with a red and a blue alphabet. I'll have to look for the name of the line tomorrow.

I know it's easy to make those mistakes- I do it all the time. I'd just like to see someone making money on their products take the time to edit correctly.

I was flipping through one of the new 6x6 pads from WRMK at Target earlier this week and noticed a typo. One of the pages says "It happend when..." On a hunch, I flipped through the matching 2x4 pads. Yep, same typo there!

Update: I got email reply back from BG today.
"We have quite a bit if this paper in stock so we won't be printing it. However if we do end up printing it in the future it will be fixed. Thank you!"
So arelys1228 you are in luck if you want this typo riddled paper!
Guess it's buyer beware and proofread.
