Created for RACHEL'S MIXED MEDIA CHALLENGE MARCH 2026
Description
JOURNALING: Last year, whenever a client wouldn’t follow through, answer an email, sign a form or get back to us, I started saying, “What is WRONG with people?” This phrase popped up all the time, and became a most-often repeated phrase in the office. It didn’t apply to just clients...it could be to a story we saw on social media, talking about family, politics, the world in general: What is WRONG with people? So, for Christmas, though Bruce and Cheyenne got us each a very lovely gift, Cheyenne got us both a “gag gift.” Adelya got a puzzle box that I think she and her husband are still trying to open, and got me this “easy” button already loaded with Cheyenne saying, “What is WRONG with people?” It was the funniest, most thoughtful gift I’d received in a long time. Just the idea that someone noticed I was saying this a lot and thought it was funny and endearing meant so much. Now I don’t have to say it, I can just push the button. And sometimes, we push it a lot!

What a fun and creative page with great journaling! I love the extracted button and the flow of your layout. Congrats on the FF! ... when you commented on my recent page about Coco Cay, I had no idea that you'd worked for RC (you probably have a lot of slogans in your arsenal)! :heartlub
Oh, I do! But my favorite thing we had to do, SEATTLESheri...was answer the Costco Travel Agency Line with "Thank you for calling your 12th Man at Royal Caribbean!" I worked in the Special Travel Agents Relations (STAR) department at that time, and every one of our top travel agencies had their own line with their own greeting.
 
I love, love, love this story and am so glad you shared it. What a great gift. It's so wonderful when people pay attention and do something creative for loved ones. And the page itself is gorgeous. I love that vibrant red and the black and white just go so well. Fun painty goodness!
 
Ha ha.. Amazing page and love the funny story.. what would have been really extra funny was if she recorded you on her iPhone and then downloaded to the button, so it would have been your voice LOL I love how you scrapped this with b/w and the red button really pops! Love this, and Anne was right.. this was a must not miss page in the gallery and congrats on the Froggy Fav!
 
She was bossy over there in the Froggy Faves forum, wasn't she!?! LOL I've actually had clients ask what the red button is for. I only tell clients that don't irritate me! LOL I think a lot of them have said they could use that button, too. I personally need one for my car, too....cuz traffic.
That is our Anne.. bossy.. we so missed her LOL @AnneofAlamo
 
Such a funnet story! Love that gift! Beautifully scrapped. Love how you framed the button with the paint.
 
What a creative gift, and I echo your sentiment! What is WRONG with people seems to be a daily thing to think now.

Anyway that pop of red off the white is stunning! I absolutely adore your page, Becky!

She keeps telling me to record my own voice on it, because that can be done, but I think it's funny that it's her voice.
