So anyway, my Sisters of Snark decided to have a snarky card swap between the group of us. This was a no holds barred kind of swap. Lynne was randomly picked to be the recipient of my card. (Ok, before you go any farther, put down your soda/coffee/alcoholic beverage and make sure your Depends are firmly strapped on)
I'll wait.....
Ready?
Ok. Meet Tess. She's at one of Gatsby's epic parties, sitting at the bar, sipping her dirty martini. As her eyes roam around the massive expanse of the mansion, looking at all the scantily clad women dancing up a storm, drinking like horses, and throwing themselves at all the willing men, she thinks to herself.....
Yep, made that story up all by myself. LOL!! But I must give credit where credit is due. I've had this stamp since last summer but this was the first time it saw ink. I had no idea how to color it. Totally stumped. So I checked out the Crafter's Companion store to see if there was a sample colored. Halleluiah! There was! So basically, I cased it. (It doesn't say who made the sample, otherwise I'd give her/his name) Also, I have cocktail napkins that have this sentiment on it, which was the inspiration of my card! LOL! (A gift from my sister! Thanks Sandy!)
Here is the inside:
To add a bit of glitz, I used Diamond Stickles on her head scarf and Glossy Accents on the martini glass.
Ok, so that's it. Just a little peek into the inner workings of my demented mind! Muahahahaha!!!
Thanks for stopping by, and stay crafty my friends!
Chris

ReplyDeleteYou are too funny! Totally made me laugh with this one!
ReplyDeleteI want those napkins! I would keep them in my purse & hand them out at randomly appropriate times. You have a fabulously demented mind, and I love it :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for the warning, Chris. I did heed it. Unfortunately, thanks to you, I've discovered that I need the extra-absorbent sedentary napkins between myself and my ergopnuemonic chair!! Absolutely hysterical!! Hugs, Darnell
