Hi Ho, Hi Ho, It's Off to Work I Go!

Welcome to Funky Cards

First I would like to wish my parents a Happy 21st wedding anniversary!  I love you Mom and Dad:)


I made this card for my mom to give to my dad.


And I made this card for my dad to give to my mom.  I love how they buy all their cards from me now, even their anniversary cards:)

Now, I have some exciting news, at least for me!  Guess what.  Last week I had my first job interview.  My mom, being my mom, couldn't let this big event go by without making it a Kodak moment.

Ok Mom, I'll get serious for just one minute.

Look Mom, I remembered my profile!  Since this is my first job I didn't have a resume so I created a profile to take with me.  This had my picture and some about information about me.  It also had all my contact information.

It's time to go Mom! Bye.

I got the call back I was waiting for.  I have a job!!  Today is my first day.  Can you guess where I work?  Look carefully at my work clothes.  Do they look familiar?


Black and Khaki! Welcome to Michael's can I help you?  It is official.  I got a job a part-time job at Michael's.  I'm so excited.  This is where I wanted to get my first job.  Now I just have to make sure to actually bring my paycheck home:)

Thanks for stopping by today!

  1. You are an amazing young lady. I hope my girls (2 and 3 right now) are like you. I am so excited for you on your JOB! I remember my first job, mucking stables so I could ride a horse for an hour. I hope Michael's gives good discounts and that you can save some of your paycheck:-)

  2. Congrats Madison! Try not to spend it all in one place, which would be so easy to do there.
    So happy for you!
    God Bless

  5. How cute that you parents get all their cards from you!

    Congratulations on your job! That's so cool that you get to work at Michaels. Even if you do spend your paycheck there, at least you'll be able to buy more with an employee discount, right?

  6. Congratulations to Michael's for getting a Great Employee. You will be very helpful to all the Crafter's coming in the store. I wonder how much of your first paycheck will go to Micheal's??? :0)
    I made my blog yesterday. Nothing great. But a big accomplishment for me. Would love for you to come visit me sometime. :0)

  8. Congrats Madison! What a great place for a crafter to work. The customers at that Michaels are certainly lucky to have a wonderful crafter like you as a resource.

  9. Congratulations! You're a smarty pants. So many people work in places they don't like or have careers they are unhappy with. You, on the hand, have picked a place that all encompasses who you are! Good luck and remember patience. Listen to everything they tell you and never do anything that just doesn't seem right. Can you tell I'm a mom? lol

  14. Oh, that's dangerous to work there. I would never bring a paycheck home, but congratulations to you. They couldn't have picked a better person for the job.

  15. Madison, Congratulations on landing your first job! I would NEVER bring a check home if I worked at Michaels. Its our main craft store here and I LOVE IT!!! I go there at least 3 times a week and know all of the sales associates and managers. We are on first name basis. LOL!
    Enjoy!

  17. Congratulations Madison!!! and what a sweet thing about your parents purchasing cards from you!!... and in no time you will probably be the person teaching the craft classes at Michaels!

  18. Congratulations Madison! You will do well there! The paycheck, well, I'd have a tough time bringing that home! That would be real hard! LOL!

  19. Congratulation Madison. They will be SO LUCKY to have you. You might want to inquire about doing some classes for them. That could add extra to your pay check. I know how you feel working at Michaels would be hard to not spend your pay check there especially when you get Discounts too. Have Fun! Smooches... Felicia

  20. Wow, Michael's is SO VERY LUCKY to get you on their team. I hope they will use you to demo some products because you'd be great at that too! SO CUTE ... esp how your Mom made it a Kodak moment.

    BTW, I posted about OUR upcoming blog hop on Facebook ... (pasted below)...

    BLOG FRIENDS: I'm looking for HOP STOPS for a special blog hop I'm co-hosting over Labor Day weekend. As I've mentioned, I work at a group home for children who are medically-fragile ... kids on ventilators, etc. Each of the 30 "stop"/participants will make a BANNER celebrating Halloween (and send it to me after posting) to decorate the 30 kids' rooms in Oct. Please leave a msg or PM if you're IN. THANK YOU!!

  23. Congratulations Madison. I remember my first job. Don't be nervous, you're going to do great. Plus you probably know more about the products than the entire staff put together. Just be sure to stand firm in your faith and share it with as many people as you can.
    Can you get me a discount? LOL I'm so happy for you.
    God Bless
