I have another friend at work who was laid off so I made a card for him, too.
I have to say that we were surprised that he didn't get to keep his job because, although he has less seniority, he's a Physics teacher and they are usually so hard to find that although you get laid off, you're hired back right away!
It came as a bit of a shock when another teacher applied for his job... :(
I hope he lands on his feet and whoever gets to have him as a teacher is so lucky! I know I said that about my other co-worker friend, but it's true! The funny thing is that they are sooooo different, but they are both fabulous teachers and the kids like both of them a lot. It's amazing how that works. The one thing they have in common is that they are both really comfortable with the subject matter they teach and children (well - teens) and I think the kids really pick up on that.
I'll miss them both so much!
Anyway, here's the card:
I stamped the fern leaf in subtle ink, then in basic black to make it pop. I used my aquapainters to give the "unique" leaf some colour and then put crystal effects on it to give it texture and shine.
I think it's a very simple card, but really evokes the idea of being unique (as that's the stamp I chose from the Define Your Life set)
Stamps: Organic Grace, Define Your Life
Ink: Crumb Cake, Basic Black, Sage Shadow, Garden Green, Old Olive, Certainly Celery
