Yikes, what a challenge this was: The mastermind behind all this left the design pretty much open; however I dont normally use the suggested colors so I was at a total loss to come up with something even my mother would like!
Talk about ugly, this is one ugly card. Anyone who needs a tutorial on how to make 'ugly' cards, I'm your woman. Just pm for further details!
Fellow Twisted Sistahs, maybe I should just slid out the back door quitely! Yikes, I dont want to be the one who brings your challenges to an all time low!

It does have a vintage look to it and I really like the layout. Yep, the colors are all there, brads and it is a man card. I like the fiber, too. Great job, Anne.

Well look at you Anne! You've got it all! Man card- nice, football, brads, stripes and colors! I love that funky fiber too- perfect. I think you've made the TSBC list! It's fun to have people join in. The Twisted Sistah's have so much fun- and it's good to see you also enjoyed the challenge. We will have to see what Shirt comes up with next. This is her week. Should be fun! Thanks for sharing!

Hey, Anne, I think I've got you beat in the ugly card dept - I'll link you up with my ugly card in my gallery at a later date( since I am not quite sure how right now!! ).. One day I will deep six it!!Now, in fact , while I understand your feelings about this card, I have to say that if you are vintagey - collagey - artsy card maker /fan- this is a beauty.
It's a man card yes, but I take issue with the idea as proposed by the previous posters that men like dark sports images. I mean some do, but I used to make my dad great house mouse cards - and as he said - Deborah - you can never go wrong with these cute RATS!!!!
