Inside and Outside Challenge

I made this card for the challenge at Totally Stampalicious...to make a card that is decorated on the inside as well as the outside. This is something that I haven't done so well in the past, but have been making more of an effort to do, so this was a great challenge for me! Also a great excuse to hide in my stamp room for just a little while after unpacking from my trip last week. Here is the front of my card:
 I used Morning Margaret for my image...because I have looked like her the past three mornings!!! Had pre-4 am wake ups for my dad's outpatient surgery and traveling home from Ohio. Then, after getting in after 10 pm from the trip and then getting unwound...I was awake before 7 am this morning with so much to do, I couldn't get back to sleep! Uuuuuuggghhh!!! The sentiment on my finished inside sums it all up for me.......
 I will probably use this for one of my co-workers with a sense of humor (accompanied by a cup a java and a yummy treat, of course) after the new school year starts.
Stamps: Totally Stampalicious Morning Margaret
Paper: Neena Super Smooth white, Poppy Parade, Cosmo Cricket dsp
Ink: Momento tuxedo black
Accessories: Nesties, buttons, Copic markers, crystal effects, trim from stash, border punch
