Challenge 841 👨🏻‍🦰

Hello everyone, Ellie here, it's my turn to host this challenge and I hope you will join us! For my optional theme I selected:

****For Boys or Men****
(or Anything Goes)

We love to see all your entries whether you follow the optional theme or not, so please do share with us. As always, you may share up to 5 new projects and you have about 2 weeks to do so.

Please remember to familiarise yourself with our rules, as we still see a few entries which we have to mark ineligible, usually failing to include product details, so a quick read might help to ensure you are not one of those.
 
Our prizes for this challenge are two beautiful A5 stamp sets from Sweet Poppy (see below).

Please read: When prizes are posted outside the UK they are always of a size to fit an envelope (never a parcel) and marked as a gift on the UK Customs form. However the  risk of fees being applied in the Country of delivery is increasing. Please consider this when claiming as we are unable to help should you be faced with a Customs charge.

Our design team and guest designer have some wonderful inspiration for you. As always, you can find out more about each project by visiting the links above each project.We're so excited to have Kath as our guest designer for this challenge. Thank you, Kath for joining us!


Happy crafting everyone! I will be back in about two weeks with my top 7 and guest designer pick.

You are invited to the Inlinkz link party!
