Those of you who know me best know that I love to laugh, and thank goodness life presents plenty of opportunities for laughter! I'm not ashamed or embarrassed to laugh at myself, and it's a good thing, since I am a bit of a goofball. I also have some wonderful friends, online and off, who share my twisted sense of humor. Laughter among friends really is the best form of therapy, too, don't you think?
Have you ever heard that saying, "If you want to appear intelligent, you need to surround yourself with intelligent people"? Well, as luck would have it, my friends are funny, which comes in very handy in view of the fact that I create funny greeting cards. (Now, in saying that, I don't want you think my friends aren't intelligent, because they are...so don't go telling them I said otherwise.)
Most of my buddies know I create snarkalicious greeting cards. They realize that I pretty much keep my nose to the ground, constantly sniffing around in my pursuit of wittily wicked inspiration, and they readily give me the green light to take their words and run with them. Here are just a couple of examples. This card came about about as a result of a life observation made by my friend, Pat.
This next card was created a while back, and came to me during a conversation with my friend, Bren. She was actually referring to a family pet in making this observation, but it occurred to me that this philosophy has some merit where human beings are concerned as well.
The last card was inspired by a conversation between myself and my friend, Stacey, about those awkward moments when we run into someone at a store, have a nice conversation which always ends with a "we need to get together and catch up", and parting ways all while completely clueless as to that individual's identity. Now if this has never happened to you, then you can just do us all a favor and keep that little tidbit of info to yourself....because I can guarantee you that it will happen, and when it does I'll be around to make a card about it.
Thanks Bren,Pat and Stacey! These cards will be making their maiden voyages to you!

Funny Jesse - they are great cards.
Hey, Jessie, these are outrageously wonderful.
How do you come up with these?!? Hilarious. Thanks for the laughs.
LOL! And you don't let grass grow under your feet gal!! I love these! (The Pat in the article!)
I knew it was our Pat!
These are great cards Jessie. I am a big fan of your humor...as you know. Keep them coming.
These are so great! I especially like the one about getting together. You know I'm a big fan of your cards!
I love that last card - it reminds me of my mother, who can never remember names. When my brother, John, was just a small child she took him to the optician and when asked his name, she looked at John and said 'What's your name again?' to him. The optician was appalled but the story just makes the family laugh because she's always been the same!
Happy to assist, Girlfriend! (You certainly do Grandpa proud. 'o)
Bren
