The Return of Dream Valley

Welcome to the return of the Dream Valley Challenge! I hope you've all had a great Christmas and new year, with a few crafty gifts thrown in?!

 

The first challenge back at Dream Valley is a perfectly easy one....Anything Goes. There were a few cards I could choose as I had a fantastically crafty few days before Christmas.....but I decided that we needed colour at this grey time of year and I wanted to showcase one of my favourite styles or techniques - the use of scraps.

This card was so easy...I "tiled" the scrap strips from a previous card together, matted it onto red paper, added some flowers and a sentiment and done!!

And this is one of the cards that the scrap strips came from:
 

I decided that I would look through my craft things and try to use something I haven't for ages....in this case, the heart embossing template, the card squares and the multicoloured flowers. Ad I loved the bright colours for this time of year!

So, I am looking forward to seeing what you create for us at Dream Valley this fortnight. Happy crafting!
