Hey guys, I'm up on the BLOGGER today with another Snarky card. I don't know about you but some times you just need a good laugh so if I can make and send a card to someone that makes them giggle I'm all for it.
Today I am using some products from Whimsy Stamps and a HAPPY BIRTHDAY sentiment from AlteNew.
I started off with a Quick card front from Whimsy Stamps from the Old Fart Grandma collection. These are too funny! Quick card fronts are great when you don't have much time to make a card, you can simply use one with a sentiment and you're done or you can do a little more with it or a lot more with it. I chose to do a bit more with it.
I used a nesting die set that looks a bit grungy or like you tore your paper, I do love that look. I used the 2nd to the largest of the set and then adhered the part that I die cut to black card stock so when I popped the inner piece of the card back on top with foam tape you would see the black "shadow" effect instead of the white card base. I then used one of the snarky sentiments from the pack but I chose to only use half of it (OLD GEEZER).
I reached into another Whimsy die set I have and cut the speech bubble and stamped the HAPPY BIRTHDAY sentiment from AlteNew on it. So now the sentiment says HAPPY BIRTHDAY OLD GEEZER. I am cracking up!
I didn't stop there, I wanted a bit more so I reached into another die set from Whimsy (I swear I am not affiliated with them at all, I just really love their stuff) and grabbed a birthday streamers die and cut them out of some paper that matches her purple coat. I thought that gave it a little extra something and a pop of more color.
I could have stopped there but she looked like she was floating so I reached into my AALL & Create snarky HILARIOUS HEADLINES word set. I used this LIFE IS SHORT. SMILE WHILE YOU STILL HAVE TEETH. I thought that was hilarious with this card front...I mean she isn't smiling so she might not have any teeth😂
Well that does it for this snarky card. I hope I put a smile on your face and gave you some inspiration to spread some laughter today or at least a handmade card to brighten someones day.
Thanks for hanging out with me today!
Have a crafty day,
Kimberly
