It has been months since I was able to sit down and make a card and what better way to get back into the swing of things than with a snarky card! Before I left So Suzy Stamps, I had one final release up my sleeve and the first part of the release was our amazing snarky sentiments courtesy of our annual Snarkfest that we host on Facebook. I have been dying to stamp with these and today is the day it happens!
It is also the day that Josefine Fouarge goes down!!! She has been crowned Snark Queen on the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers blog far too many times and I think she needs to step aside…or take a tumble. (I am so glad she loves me or she would seriously be on her way to do me bodily harm by now.) Truth be told, I have NEVER entered a Challenge before, I have hosted them, but never participated and this is kind of exciting!
My style of snarky cards is a bit different than most. I like to make a pretty card on the outside, make them feel all warm and fuzzy on the inside and then hit them with the snarky silliness on the inside. It’s kind of like the gift that keeps on giving!
I absolutely love these tulips from The Ton and they make for a great encouragement card and I brought the tulips onto the envelope, as well. I just feel that if you are going to all the trouble of making a pretty card, you should probably jazz up the envelope a bit too. Just when they are feeling all special and loved, they open up their card…
=) Yes, boys and girls, this is HOW you snark! Effie, we truly do make an incredible team when it comes to our stamps.
Man, it feels good to be making cards again and I couldn’t think of a better way to get started! This card is actually going to a friend of mine (gasp! I know, I may actually MAIL a card!) and I know she is going to totally love and appreciate it. I am truly blessed with having a like-minded snarky friends and family.
Until next time,
Happy Stamping!
