Project Life Nerd Power Father's Day Card

Ok, any of you who are Bay Area Oakland A's fans know what I'm talking about when I say Nerd Power… and I'm proud to say I even own "Sogards"… Eric Sogard of the Oakland A's is known for his "nerd power" glasses, and I was SOOOO excited to see them in the Happiness Is Project Life card pack! I knew immediately that I'd make a Father's Day card with this fun printed card!

Yep, those are my nerd power "Sogards"… I've worn glasses since I was 3 years old and during the day I wear contacts with strong reading glasses over them. I have had my Sogards for about 2 years and was "tickled" (as my grandma would say) that they are actually trendy now because of Eric Sogard! LOL

This is the card I made for Eric (Eric Bennett, not Eric Sogard) for Father's Day:

Since Mr. Bennett has had a mustache for about 29 of the 30 years I've known him, I thought it was a fun idea to add the mustache die cut to this card :) He seemed to like the card! The mustache framelit die is on pg 230 of the new Stampin' Up! catalog (#133741), and available here online.

The card printed with the glasses is found in the Happiness Is Project Life card packet, pg 189, #135307.

Below is the inside of the card.. anything with grid paper makes my heart sing.. so I grabbed this piece of printed paper out of the Moonlight DSP stack. I added some Washi Tape from the Epic Day package (pg 190, #131269).

The celebrate greeting is from the Fabulous Four stamp set, pg 13, #134171 / 134174 and the arrow is punched out with the What's Up punch, new this year and found on pg 222, #133781.

The Father's Day greeting was from the May My Paper Pumpkin kit. I stamped it in Blackberry Bliss ink and added the dots with a Stampin' Write marker.

This would also make a great guy card for any occasion.. just swap out the greeting for birthday, thinking of you, miss you, love you, take me out to dinner… 🙂

If you wanted to make several of these cards, you can download the My Digital Studio Happiness Is digital file and print as many of these Nerd Power glasses cards as you wish! 🙂
