Challenge #54 - "Anything goes"

HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone and everyone on the Fab'n'Funky DT hope you all had a brilliant time.

We were also blown away by the number of entries to our last challenge of 2010 and please forgive us all if we haven't got around to commenting yet. Without Mr Linky or Mr Inlinkz it was a very hard task to do but hopefully this week they will play ball and be around !!! However there can only be one winner and the randomly chosen person for the fab prize is . . .

Vanja from Vanja's Craft Den

Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday dear ANDREA
Happy Birthday to you

Now onto this weeks challenge: it is a simple one as we all have loads going on and setting a theme seemed a little unfair. There are the "Thank You" cards to make; January birthdays to celebrate and loads of other occasions, so with this in mind, the DT have decided to have the theme . . .

"anything goes"

Make a project that benefits your needs this week whether it is a card, a layout, a memory album or altered item . . . whatever you need to help you get back into your crafting. To start you off and inspire you, here is what the DT needed to make this week . . .
