Merry Christmas (with some snark)

Hello!  Thank you so much for stopping by.
 
If you are hopping with So Suzy Stamps on the Mini Snarkmas blog hop.. Welcome!!  We are posting a mini blog hop, so comment through the hop and you could win $25 from So Suzy Stamps.  See the end of my blog on the details!  FREE shipping through the 15th with a $25 order!
 
 
I am thrilled to share my creation with you.  I have a few friends who will be receiving this card..  Maybe once you see the inside of the card.. you too, can relate?? 
 
I first took a card base and laid out all of my coordinating papers, inks, dies and stamps.  I knew what I had in my mind, so I put it to paper.  I had purchased glitter paper at Hobby Lobby, so this was the perfect time to add some glitter to life. 
 
I then took the Merry Christmas ornament, using my MISTI and with gold embossing powder, heat set this part of my card.
 
 
 
I then used Simply Sinful from the So Suzy Stamps ink bite collection (I highly recommend So Suzy ink bites) and a blender tool to color in red on my ornament.  I then fussy cut around the ornament.  Originally, I wanted to pop this up but ended up placing it flat to my card.
 
 
I then added some sequins for some sparkle
 
Now to the FUN part .. the inside.. the FUNNY part.  You know you can relate to who would make you drink wine instead of coffee??!  Right??
 
 
 
I decided to do a few layers on the inside to match the front.  I stamped my sentiment in versafine black onyx.
 
 
 
 
 
That completes my card!  The outside appears to be a nicey nice Christmas card.. and the snark is the funnies on the inside.

  8. Great paper layers and the ornament is so pretty. I don't think the sentiment is that snarky though. Sounds practical to me. Well done.
