*** Scroll down to the post below or click HERE to see my card for this week's Color Throwdown challenge! ***
This month's SugarPea Designs challenge is an Anything Goes theme. With a wide open theme like that, there's no excuse for not pulling out your SPD stamps and joining in!
I started out by using the large eyeglasses die from the Brainy Bookmarks dies to cut a pair of glasses from gray cardstock. The frames were glued to acetate, then carefully trimmed. This gives the lenses a glass-like look.
I found some masculine patterned papers in my stash and used them for the panels on my cardfront. I arranged them on a piece of pale gray cardstock adhered to a dark gray card base. The "talk nerdy to me" sentiment was stamped in gray pigment ink on a cream fishtail flag strip. Once all the pieces were in place, I added the eyeglasses on top, using teeny, tiny pieces of foam tape for dimension. A few red enamel dots scattered around the panels completed the design.
