Embracing my inner nerd!

Hello...it's Monday - a brand new week! I hope you all had a great weekend, I had a very busy weekend. I worked all weekend, then had my Dad's birthday on Saturday so we had him over for a BBQ, and my Mom's birthday was Sunday - so we took her an my Nana out... busy, busy. I actually managed to make a card or two also. The first time I've made something in a while, with paper that is. I've been getting back into my beading, but my first love will always be paper crafting! I have a very busy week ahead of me......... I work every day, including the weekend. I have tomorrow off and will be going for lunch with some friends from work, I will have some time to play a bit afterwards (hopefully!), followed by stamp class tomorrow evening :) So it will be a busy, but fun day! And boy do I need it, I've been working so much this summer! Can't wait for next week's vacation...

 

Onto my share, if you visited me on Friday, you would have checked out my 'geek' card! I love how it turned out, one of my favourite cards that I've made - it is definitely a one of a kind card. I have bigger plans for that card and today's card.. well, I have a bunch that I have bigger plans for - which I'll share later.

 

I used the same verse, except for the word geek, I used nerd. All these cards were inspired by those thick glasses from the Calling All Heroes set... I went to Pinterest, because lets face it - if you need to find something chances are someone has pinned it. That's where I found a bunch of fun nerdy/geeky quotes. I stamped my quote: "You say nerd like it is a bad thing!!" using the Alphabet Rotary stamp. I stamped the words, then trimmed around and matted onto either Tangelo Twist or Strawberry Slush cardstock. My glasses were stamped in rows of three pairs, one row of pink, one row of orange, pink, orange and layered them onto Basic Black! More pink - what's going on with me right?! Well, I hope you like my card... I think it's fun, and I embrace my inner nerd :)
