Challenge #118 - Flight

Hey!

And welcome to the next challenge here at The Male Room.

After all the birthday celebrations we're now ready to be on the move and take flight.

Remember we accept any genre of paper crafting - cards, layouts, travel notebook pages, art journalling, 3D projects - it just has to be suitable for a male.

We're delighted to have Wendy Grawunder as our guest designer for this challenge and she has made a beautifully atmospheric card to inspire you. Do go visit Wendy on Instagram and leave her some love.

And of course the very talented Male Room DT have also given flight some thought and come up with amazing ideas to help inspire your creativity.

And guess what else?

We've managed to persuade Deborah to be our very special Guest Designer for our birthday challenge. You probably know that Deborah is a founding member of TMR and ran the challenge for some time too. So we're super excited to have enticed her out of her crafting abyss to create this fabulous card to inspire you:

I hope you'll find time to follow the links to Deborah's blog and let her know how lovely it is to see her crafting and blogging again.

And of course TMR DT have also made birthday cards to fizz up up your energy and get you in the mood to play along.
