Winners - Challenge #22 - Stash Hardware

Oops!  Sorry folks, running a bit late with the winners post!  Got busy at home tidying my craft room!!  I think the Hardware challenge was quite a challenge - so thanks to everyone who played along.  Without further ado, here are the winners:

Excellent use of hardware here, like the rivet on jeans!!

Super clean, simple and elegant card.  We really like the port hole

Congratulations to all our winners, please pick up your badges from our sidebar and show them on your blogs!  And thanks to all our players - we really enjoyed seeing your work.

Now, just a quick reminder of the current challenge at The Male Room.  Our theme this time is REMEMBRANCE OR SYMPATHY -  just remember that your papercraft project must have a masculine style.

Winners - Challenge #21 - Theme Halloween

Good morning from an unseasonable warm and sunny Northville, not that I'm complaining at all!!
We had so many fantastic submissions for our Halloween challenge, from 3D projects to ultra CAS cards.  The thumbnail display was just fabulous!  Here are our winners.

WINNER

#11 - Ann

Absolutely fabulous tag for Halloween

There are so many super details from the little skeleton hand, to the screws and tag,

to the arsenic label.  And the skull is just brilliant.  

Great work Ann!

#28 - Janis

Such a wonderfully detailed mixed media project.

Love the textures, the colours, and 

best of all - that fabulous spider.  

#32 - Deonna

Super spooky stepper card.

Great papers and lovely embellishments.  

Fab spider and web!

#42 - Jan R

And we finish with a reasonably CAS card.

Love the pumpkin paper, the webs peeking out from behind the panel.

And that pumpkin with the googly eyes is just brilliant.

Thank you for playing along - do pick up your badges from our sidebar and display them on your blogs.

Now it's time to remind you about our current challenge.  We have a stash challenge to use up some of that HARDWARE in your stash.  Get out those brads, the eyelets, charms, cogs, and even metal buttons - put them to go use on your projects.  You've got until midnight (GMT) Wednesday 10th November (7.00pm EDT) to play along.

Challenge #22 - Stash

Welcome to The Male Room.  It's time for our new challenge and this time we want you to use some of your stash.  I'm sure, that like me, you have lots of hardware in your stash.  What do I mean by hardware?  Well it's all those charms, eyelets, brads and other types of HARD stash.  Get creative and make your masculine theme project using HARDWARE!

Our Guest Designer this month is Anita of Crafts & Arts Fun with Anita, she has a lovely masculine style card using eyelets!  Here's her card:

Here are some inspiration projects from the Design Team.  Have fun, get creative - we are really looking forward to seeing what you make.

Challenge #21 - Theme

Hello!  You guys really like the Autumn theme we had last week.  And I hope you enjoy our theme for the next couple of weeks. Like many other challenges in blogland, here at The Male Room we've gone for the theme of HALLOWEEN.  You're not limited to making a card, in fact we love seeing different kinds of papercraft projects - ATC, scrapbook layouts, Project Life layouts, tags, 3D - but it must have a masculine feel!

Our Guest Designer this month is Anita of Crafts & Arts Fun with Anita.  Anita is a regular player here at The Male Room.  Anita lives in Germany and this is her first ever Halloween card - they don't celebrate Halloween as much in Europe and the UK as they do here in the States.  Here's Anita's card:

Do drop by and leave a comment for Anita.  And here are some more inspiration projects from the Design Team - we love to get comments too!
