Dirty Skanks!

No, I'm not going where you think I am with this one. I entered a swap on swap-bot called "Dirty Skanks." The coordinator of the swap made a typo and it stuck. She meant to say "Dirty Shanks." Dirty Shanks are cards that look pretty, but the message is quite the opposite. HERE is the official blog if you'd like to learn a little more history and see some examples.

When I signed up for this swap I jumped right in and became addicted. I was pissed at the time, so insults were flowing pretty easily in my mind. My original shanks say:

"I would tell you to go to hell, but I'm already there and don't particularly care for your company."

"Trick or Treat! Please give me the apple WITHOUT the razor blade, scary old lady."

"Bon Voyage! Please don't come back."

"Happy Birthday! I thought you'd be dead by now."

"Everyone knows you lie about your age."

"Many Thanks! For Nothing!"

And a saying I had seen before was also incorporated into one of my cards:

"If we were running for our lives together during the zombie apocalypse, I'd trip you."

I found making these to be very therapeutic. You get to make something pretty, but offensive or sarcastic at the same time! What could be better? I'd love to hear what your card(s) would say! (Sorry I didn't post pictures, but I'm tired and lazy. I couldn't resist sharing my insults though.)
