Week 828 - anything masculine

Good morning lovely crafters, we hope you all had a fantastic week last week. Thank you for your gorgeous entries into last week’s ‘lots of layers' challenge; as always the DT had a brilliant time visiting your blogs and seeing your beautiful creations. Please remember to come back later as we will be announcing our lucky winner of the £15.00 voucher courtesy of Dies to Die For and we will find out who Lorraine has chosen as her Top 5 Passionista.

Onto the new challenge, which was chosen by Elaine from Team 2 and she has given us a theme of ‘anything masculine'. As the title suggests Elaine would like you to make something for a man or boy this week.  We know male creations are difficult, and they are not our favourite things to make, but we always need them so come on take the plunge and join in the fun.  Please remember you can enter using any type of creation, it doesn’t have to be a card but whatever you make you must include a hand coloured image to be eligible for our prize draw. So come on, grab your markers, and have fun!

Our generous sponsor this week is Dr Digi's House of Stamps who are offering one lucky winner a prize of 1 digi image of their choice from their online store.  Most of the DT have used images from Dr Digi's HOS on their creations this week.

The design team have worked their magic once again this week and have created beautiful cards to inspire you (please click on their names to visit their personal blogs):

Stay safe and sending our love to you all.
