Meet Ellie

Hey, I’m Ellie—the human behind As Told by Ellie.

First things first: I’m a new mom to a baby who arrived thanks to IVF (and more needles than I ever expected). But before that, I was (and still am) a proud dog mom to Collins—my almost-14-year-old Black Lab who regularly steals the spotlight on my social media and holds the title of Employee of the Month every month (despite my husband’s complaints).

I started this business in 2021 during what was easily the scariest chapter of my life. After four years of unexplained infertility, I discovered I had a brain tumor that was preventing me from getting pregnant. For a while, I truly thought I might not be here much longer, and I felt this pull to create something that would still exist if I didn’t.

That “something” turned into a way to spread laughter—especially the kind that helps people survive the hard stuff. Humor has always been my coping mechanism, and I’ve learned I have a knack for helping people laugh at things they’d normally cry about.

These days, this business is about more than just greeting cards or enamel pins—it’s about freedom, creativity, and never watering yourself down. I believe in saying what you actually mean (even if it makes people blush), living life on your own terms, and finding humor in the chaos.

Thanks for being here and supporting this little corner of sarcasm and heart. Whether you’re stocking your shop, laughing at my questionable captions, or just here to see what Collins is up to, I’m so glad you found me.

never miss a special occasion again, you fucking slacker.

Snark Box: A Monthly Greeting Card Subscription

🎉 The card stash you didn’t know you needed (but absolutely do).

Snark Box is a monthly subscription for people who refuse to send boring cards. It’s sarcasm, sass, and cards that say the quiet part out loud, delivered to your door so you’re never caught empty-handed again.

No drugstore panic. No cringe. Just excellent timing and even better taste.


What You Get Every Month

🃏 Four Curated Greeting Cards
Birthday, breakup, congrats, encouragement, or just because. I choose a balanced mix so you’re covered for real-life situations, not hypothetical ones.

✉️ Envelopes + Stamps Included
Yes. All of it. I’m removing every excuse you’ve ever had not to send a card.

🎁 Always Ready-to-Go
Toss them in a drawer, keep them in your bag, or hoard them like a responsible adult who plans ahead.

💎 Subscriber-Only Designs
Some cards land here first. Snark Box subscribers see them before the rest of the internet does.


Why Snark Box Exists

😏 No Clichés, Ever
These are not “thinking of you” cards with flowers. Expect laughs, side-eyes, and the occasional gasp.

🗓 You’ll Never Forget the Card Again
You’ll always have one on hand, which is wildly attractive behavior.

💌 Unmatched Card Taste
People will ask where you got it. You can tell them. Or not.


How It Works

1️⃣ Subscribe
Choose monthly (cancel anytime) or commit to a longer plan if you’re serious about your reputation.

2️⃣ I Curate
Each month, I hand-pick four cards with variety in mind. The goal is usable, funny, and worth keeping.

3️⃣ Shipped Monthly
Snark Boxes ship on the 15th of each month.

4️⃣ Use Them Wisely
Send them, save them, frame them, or dramatically pull one out at the perfect moment.


Dare to be remembered.
Be the person who always sends the right card.
And never apologize for your sense of humor.

💌 P.S. Side effects may include contagious laughter, dramatic eye rolls, and people asking “wait… where do you find these cards?” Use responsibly.
