Hi all, Jo here to dare you this week :) and I would like to challenge you to make a hero themed card. It could be a card for the Hero in your life or a Superhero themed card....

We have Lynne with us this week as a fabulous guest designer, Lynne and the DCM team have risen to the challenge magnificently and created these fantastic cards to show you - don't forget to check out all our personal blogs for all the low-down on what we used and how we used it.

We love seeing all your artwork and as usual, there are 2 ways of sharing with us. Either add a comment with your blog link or email us at daringcardmakers@hotmail.co.uk and we will add your card to our Gallery.

Can't wait to see what you create, have fun!!

Very clever designs, i love them.
I didn't think I'd be able to do this one when I saw it this morning & considered entering the birthday card for my Dad, I blogged this morning.
but I came up with something else as well..

Well I have had a go! This is my very first challenge so a bit nervous.
I have called it Superbaby and it is pant themed! Because all the best superhero's do it in pants!
Hope it's OK - you can see it here http://jayrewcraft.blogspot.com/
Thank you!
