Challenge #31 - Theme

Morning!  It's time for our new challenge at The Male Room.  It's not long until Easter, so for the next couple of weeks we want to see your masculine style projects with an EASTER theme (TMR#31).  Don't forget you can make any type of papercraft project - card, ATC, 3D, scrapbook or Project Life layouts, etc - but they must be masculine in style.  Hopefully, this challenge will be more popular than our Make It Move one!!!

Here are some inspiration projects from the Design Team:

Sue T.

You've got until midnight (BST) Tuesday 29th March (7.00pm EST) to play along.

Monochrome perfection!  

Love the clean, crisp design and super sentiment!

HONOURABLE MENTIONS

(in order of submission)

#1 - Marina

Marina has created so much depth with her layered stamping, this is actually one layer!

Lovely shades of green!

#20 - Carol

The colours perfectly echo the theme - and the coffee words are super.

Love that sentiment too!

#21 - Rahmat

This is a wonderful example of the bokeh technique.

Using blues makes it feel like bubble in the water!  Great work!

Now, before I go, I must remind everyone of our current challenge - which certainly appears to be a big challenge!!! Only two submissions as I write this post. Our current challenge is MAKE IT MOVE (TMR#30). We want to see interactive masculine style projects. There are several videos on our original post showing how to make waterfall, slider and spinner cards. Go on, have a go!!!

Challenge #30 - Technique

Hi!  I can't quite believe that we're already in March!  It's time for our new challenge at The Male Room.  We have a technqiue challenge for you this time.  We want you to MAKE IT MOVE (TMR#30).  By that we mean an interactive card - you can make a pop-up, slider or be totally inventive and come up with something we've not seen before.  All we ask is that your project has a masculine feel.

I've put a few videos at the end of the post showing how to make (a) an easy slider card, (b) spinner card and (c) waterfall card.

Super little origami bird and that watercolour panel with oriental characters is outstanding!
