Winners - Challenge#27 - Theme

Good morning everyone!  Our Babies & Little Boys challenge was another popular theme with over 50 submissions - and they are all absolutely fabulous.  So, once again it was really hard to pick an overall winner, but we managed it.  We do, however, have several Honourable Mentions.

Now, before I go, I've time to remind you about our current challenge which is to make your masculine style projects with an ORIENTAL theme.  This is looking to be a bit of a challenge at the moment as they are not too many submissions.  Do have a go - we look forward to seeing how you interpret ORIENTAL.


You still have plenty of time to join in - submission deadline is midnight (GMT) on Tuesday 16th February (7.00pm EDT).
