Challenge #64 - Anything Goes Using Dies

Welcome back Dies R Us Friends
and
Happy New Year!

With the start of a new year, we here at the Dies R Us Challenge Blog are changing things up a bit to kick off 2017.  We will still have our two challenges a month (on the 1st & 15th) but instead of two different teams, we are combining our teams into one!  That means you'll find inspiration from ALL our talented DT members with each challenge.

However, we are sad to say that one of our long time DT members, Vicki Robertson, has stepped down from the Dies R Us design team.  You'll still be seeing Vicki's beautiful work on her blog and around blogland and we hope she'll pop back in from time to time to share her gorgeous creations with us as a Guest Designer and challenge participant.  We would like to wish Vicki all the best in her future crafting endeavors as well as in her personal life.  

Thanks again to everyone who participated
in our 'Snow' challenge!!

Now onto today's challenge . . .

With everyone still recovering from all the holiday parties, family gatherings, etc., we are going to make this an easy challenge for you to participate in.  There were some AMAZING SALES over at the Dies R Us Store throughout the holiday season ... hope Santa picked out a few goodies for you to create with!

Our theme is:

ANYTHING GOES USING DIE CUTS

Let's see what the ladies have created to inspire you today . . .
