Oops! Running just a bit late with the winners post today. I think you all really enjoyed our Anything Goes challenge; we had 109 wonderful submissions. In fact it was so hard to pick our winners this time, we have JOINT WINNERS:

There are so many super elements in this CAS card.

So nice to see such a fun 3D card. The neutral tones are just super.

Love the contrast of the bold colours on the birds with the simple background.
This is such a fun card! Great work.



Love this image of the teenage boy - so beautifully coloured.
Perfectly simple layout. Love the bold sentiment banner.



Really like the effect of using colour blocks on water colour card.

Thank you all for playing along with our Anything Goes challenge and congratulations. Do pick up your badges from the sidebar and display them on your blogs.

Before I go, there's just time for me to remind you of our current challenge. We're half way through our Washi Tape challenge - TMR#52. I'm sure that, like me, you have got lots of washi tape in your stash. Well, we want to see you use it on your masculine style projects. Go wild, be creative and have fun! You've got until midnight Tuesday 31st January (7.00pm EDT) to join the fun.

Winners - Challenge#50 - Theme

We had an almost record number of entries for our Christmas/December Celebrations/Winter Wishes challenge. The thumbnail display looked absolutely super. I must apologise again for the confusion with the closing date for the Linky - so sorry. It's been really tough to pick our winners, but we did it and they are:

WINNER


Beautifully CAS card with so much lovely texture.
The image is super and the stitched detail is lovely. The soft aqua is just perfect.

HONOURABLE MENTIONS
(in order of submission)



A really fun card - just right for a guy.
Lovely image, great colouring  and nice layout!



Lots of super details on this car, with the stag framed by the lovely wreath.
The soft neutral tones are just lovely.



A very elegant card. We liked the long, thin design.
Love the way the branches and ornaments frame the sentiment.



Both cards are really super.
We like the cute critters in the firs card and those fun DP mountains.
The second is more classic with the colours and use of plaid. Great work.



A lovely clean, simple card. The panel with the deer and trees is just super.
Love the big, bold sentiment.

Congratulations to all our winners. Please pick up your badges from the sidebar and display them on your blogs.

We are half-way through our first challenge of the year which has an ANYTHING GOES theme. There are already many wonderful projects - don't forget that we like to see any type of paper craft project.

Challenge #51 - Anything Goes

Good morning!! We wish you all a very Happy 2017!

I must apologise to everyone - I set the closing date for the last challenge linky earlier than stated in the post! So sorry! It'll be okay for this challenge.

Many crafters find it difficult to create cards or projects for the men in our lives - both young and old. So, the aim of our challenges here at The Male Room are to help and inspire you with your masculine projects. We like to see all types of paper craft projects from cards, tags, 3D creations, scrapbook layout and even art journal pages and canvases. Our only condition is that your creations are masculine in style and follow the theme, colours, technique or stash of the particular challenge.

With all that in mind, it's time for our first challenge of the year and, after the very busy holiday period that has just passed, we've decided to keep it nice and simple. We have an ANYTHING GOES theme for you.


Here's some inspiration from the Design Team:

Submission deadline is midnight (GMT) Tuesday 17th January (7.00pm EST). Let your imagination go wild and have fun!
