My first thought was to turn to the Joanna Sheen Viva la Divas CD and edit some of the sentiments, but that wouldn't really, really be using my stash, so I dug out this old unmounted stamp that came in a grab bag from Viva Las Vegas Stamps some years ago and paired it with paper and card from my snippets box, keeping to the lime-and-navy colour scheme to give it a retro feel.
I really don't know what the image on the stamp is meant to convey - a cut finger perhaps? But the woman looks so cross that I think it goes well with a version of a saying I've often seen on Pinterest, that usually starts "I drink coffee....." - I produced my own version of it with a hand held Dymo label machine, which adds to the 50s feel of the design.

Brilliant! I love this card Jane. The image, the papers and that sentiment go to make the perfect 'snarky' card. I had never heard that word either but I can see it getting well used now :) Elizabeth xx
He he he this is awesome Jane!!
Thanks for joining Shopping Our Stash and the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers for our combined "Show Us Your Snark" challenge!
I love the retro feel of the green and white polka dot paper!! I used to have a favourite pair of shorts that looked JUST like that!! LOL
So glad you explained snarky as I had no idea what it meant either! Brilliant card, I love the lime green and navy together.
Hi Jane
it is lovely to see you in the playground again with your very witty card!!
I was just trying to think of other phrases that she might be saying but you have nailed it!!
Love the zesty colours!

I can totally see her saying to her husband, "I can kill you now, or I can have some crafty therapy time, don't make me choose." My husband tells me that I am happier when I've had crafty time. Perfect sentiment adaption. Thanks for playing in the cross over "Show us Your Snark" challenge with Shopping Our Stash and the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers!
Very nice retro feel with this card. The DYMO sentiment fits in perfectly!

And she's either looking at a paper cut, or wagging her finger at him. :D Great sentiment!
