Thanks Sherrie for the office supplies challenge. I love using the hard edge embellies and you'll find staples often. Today it's Einstein on my hit parade!
The images are from two different Artistic Outpost plates, Geek is Chic and Mini-Masterpieces. I stamped on GP white cs with Memento Tuxedo Black. The wonderful beret is paper pieced with Basic Grey's June Bug polka dot paper. This was stapled to the red Brazzill linen mat with mini turquoise staples. The crayons were colored with Copics and placed inside that pocket page protector. I added a transparent envie to put my love nerds note. This is clipped with a Tim Holtz mini clip. I used Cosmo Crickets circuit board paper for my background and a stamp of Einstein turned upside down.
I'll love to know how you feel about polka dot berets or plastic pocket liners...anybody remember those? I remember when I was in college in the '70's the computer science majors were the nerdiest on campus...they're the ones retired now with boats, yachts, maybe...homes galore!

great card and nicely done - don't remember the polka dot hats, but I remember the pocket protectors ;-) - I was an art major, so my problem was always stains on shirts and inky/painty fingers, only an apron would protect the clothes and I sure wasn't going around campus wearing that !!

You are the best when it comes to collages and they always have a message - I think this one is that the person we make fun of usually is way ahead of us!!! Love it, Susan!
