Challenge #96 - My Bad/Sorry

Hey! Welcome to a new challenge here at The Male Room.

I think you might find this theme a really useful one - who hasn't had to fess up and apologise at some point in their lives? Maybe you've forgotten to do something or arrived late or totally messed up an assignment or ........ I'm sure you can fill in the gap!

All we ask is that your project - card, scrapbook page, art journal, tag, atc, 3D item etc - fits our theme and is suitable for a male.

We have a previous winner of one of our challenges joining us as a Guest Designer today. Let's welcome Lynn and perhaps pop over to her blog and leave her some much deserved love.

Guest Designer - Lynn

Now that's saying sorry with humour and style!

And it looks like I'm going to have to say a bit of a sorry too! But life happens, people get ill, time runs short and these things have a habit of all colliding at the same time. We hope you'll be understanding that some of our DT have not been able to join in today.
