Yeah, I know.  Work is frustrating for everyone.  But when your boss is out of town and people then go – oh, we need to now go ask Kim this – and this – and this – and this, the frustration gets worse.  And since I’m always one to go – hey – there’s a card in this ….. I decided to go totally insane and incorporate several many different sets together to come up with this “I’m Grumpy When You’re Not Here” card for my boss.

I knew I wanted THAT phrase from last month’s My Favorite Things release.  I didn’t want to use the dogs or cats that came with.  Then I remembered the lovely Lili of the Valley It’s My Party girl.  I took away her present and made he kick some rain water that came down from the gray clouds over her head.  I made the puddles with a stencil I created from my Memory Box Splashing Puddles die.  Then I putty glossy accents over all the rain.

And then the e-mail came in for Work It Wednesday at Simon Says Stamp!  AMAZINGLY, this week is Sunny Days and incorporate something yellow.  I think I got this!  My husband tells me all the time “don’t make cards for men,” but I couldn’t help myself.  It’s therapy and I think it’ll make my boss smile with the wonderful “I’m Grumpy” saying inside.

Have a wonderful week, everyone!  Keep smiling.  Even in the rain.
