It's my turn to set the Dare over at Daring Cardmakers this week and it's my very first one - I am so nervous lol. This is what I decided on quite by accident whilst sorting through old family photographs:-
Say it in "Sepia"
I've been sorting through some "Old" family photographs with the intention of Scrapbooking them and I just love the Sepia ones. So I thought it would be nice to see a "Thank You" card made using "sepia" tones. So that's just brown/white or brown/cream depending on your card base colour. We will all be needing "Thank You" cards after Christmas so that's why I chose that sentiment just to help us all get started.
The rest of the Design Team have made some absolutely gorgeous cards so pop over for some fabulous inspiration and if you decide to have a go yourself don't forget to leave us a link to your card so we can come and have a look.

This is just beautiful Lynda. Although it's Sepia it's got a really modern twist. I still love that script stamp, I really must get round to adding it to my collection and those flowers are stunning.
