Spectacular Spectacles of the 80's


There's a fun challenge at Moxie Fab World - again!!! . At first I thought I wouldn't join because I couldn't come up with anything that wasn't already in the inspirational pictures or in the latest issue of Paper Crafts - but then, yesterday - when we had really nice weather here for the first time this spring I went to to get my sunglasses and found all the old ones I used to wear when I was younger - much younger...



It's probably not really what Cath is looking for, and to my disappointment my DH couldn't tell what  clebs I was trying to picture before I put out the names... Well, well, I had a lot of fun making it  (-:
For my card I used stamps from Hero Arts and Wilson's Designs and the stickers are from Crate Paper.
I'm entering this card for the "anything goes" challenge at Simon Says Stamp challenge too.

Hope you too are enjoying the sun today, hugs, Karin

This card just made my day! You really pulled that off - so much thought into it from the style of the glasses, to the clothes, to the backgrounds. Great idea to present them in photos. Wonderful!

I think this is so clever! Love the idea - and I definitely got them all. The names are a good idea though, just for us to be sure ;) Love the white jacket on Don too! lol

This is so clever! I remember the 80's - what a great take on the challenge - clever like a fox!
My favorite is John. I always feel that Harry Potter stole those shades from him!!!

Nancy K said...

Oh my word, Karin....how amazingly clever is this?! Such a fun 80s celebrity sighting!

I think you should win, win, win everything you enter! Holy cow! You are a creative genius! And yes, I know all the fellas you a refering to in your card, well, except for John. I'm thinking John Stamos (remember those women's shaving cream commercials), but probably am wrong. I think this card is tops!
