DCM Dare 20/20

It's Kathy's turn for the dare this week. Your card has to include 20 of something, 20 blooms, 20 squares (as in my case) or 20 of anything you can put on a card really.


Here's my card. The day Kathy let us know about the dare I had to make a Thank You for Master 3's kindy teacher who was leaving to go to another job. 20 Coloured squares seemed to fit beautifully for a kindy teacher and as an extra special touch a managed to make the greeting out of 20 letters in the same colours. Font used - Kids.

I've also just realised that I never put a post here for the Tuesday Little Extra - Male cards.

Here it is:



The background is patterned pattern stamped semi randomly with a 'Happy Father's Day' word stamp. The ties came from a template in a special cards magazine from 'Simply Cards and Papercraft'. While put more details about the mag in when I can find it. The squiggles were done with watercolour pencil.

Keryn both of your cards are brilliant... I love your 20/20 card the squares remind me of those brenix pads they use at school.. I'm sure it was a hit..
and the ties card is very clever.. nice touch with the pencils too..

These are great cards - I particularly like the 20 20 one - so simple but very effective and I shall be borrowing the idea soon!

I love your 20-20 card Keryn, its so bright and cheery and bloomin' clever too!

Great cards Keryn. Don't know how you do it but your stuff is alwaus so beautifully neat and perfectly allined. I always struggle to get things straight - all those squares would have gradually wandered downhill for me.

I love both of these cards, the ties look fab and just right for a 'male' card, the squares are an inspired idea and look brilliant :)

Good luck with your booth, I am sure that you will do really well :)
