I had fun making this card for the Mix-ability Challenge # 3 - What's White & Read All Over.
My text is dp I found in my stash & relates to the Aussie male & refers to mates/blokes, I thought this would be a good start for a card for my BIL! I drew a border around the dp using a black marker & backed onto Real Red cardstock. For the 3 reds I coloured the words with a red Prisma pencil, used Cherry Cobbler for the sentiment and sprayed with Glimmer Mist and used a Real Red re-inker for the chipboard stars.
Thank you so much for taking the time to look!

This is perfect! Blokes, mates, or buds I guess guys are all the same no matter where they come from LOL. Noofy and all his 'little friends' would absolutely love this cute card.

Ah.. I was only just talking about one of HL famous short stories just the other day. A great Aussie bloke! I work in a little out-of-the-way country pub sometimes and this would be a great card for many of the bar flies. Great paper find!
