July Elemental Challenge - Daring Cardmakers DT

Happy July!

It's been a great week full of sunshine and creativity along with a very memorable Prize Giving for the boys which we attended earlier in the week.  The last scheduled school Sports Day was cancelled due to rain but hopefully the one on Monday will go ahead as the forecast looks to be dry and the boys are looking forward to it.

As it's the first Friday of the month, it's an elemental challenge over on the Daring Cardmakers and I have decided to incorporate the latest Sweet Dixie Time for Tea collection in my post as it fits perfectly.

I made a slight twist on an easel card so it looked more like a table and after matting and layering my papers I die cut a doily die as the base for which to stand my very fancy cup and tea pot.  Of course I had to add a silver spoon too!  The card folds flat for posting and it'll be winging its way to my Mum who is a big tea lover.  The dies are all on Pick of The Week on Create & Craft this week and I was fortunate to make some show samples as well which have been aired.

Below you can see how I have chosen the teapot, the cornflower blue, the spoon and the gingham as my elements from the photo chosen by Dawn.

You can see more inspiration HERE and I hope that you'll join in with this fun challenge.

I have Parent Meetings to prepare for tomorrow and a lot of work so I think it'll be a busy weekend for me!

Enjoy your weekend whatever you do!
