Challenge #131 - Team Colours

So do you support a sports team or were you in a team/house at school?

Well we're looking to see your masculine project using the colours from your team for our new challenge.

And don't stress if you're not into sports or your school didn't have team colours just widen your imagination to encompass any type of team - car manufacturer's logos, school uniform colours, colours from a TV programme logo or a Film title sequence, food packaging, lorry or van colours.......

Your project doesn't have to be about a team either we just want you to be inspired by the colours and incorporate them into your creation.

We're delighted to welcome Betty as our Guest Designer for this challenge and she has made an awesome card to inspire you to play along.

Love those sneaker boots! Such a stylish card design too! Perhaps you'd like to go tell her how impressed you are by leaving a lovely comment on her blog - HERE.

And look at all this amazing creativity from The Male Room's DT - sure to get you inspired!
