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.
