Today is a very special day as my eldest son comes back after a week away with his class on a PGL (Parents Get Lost) trip. He couldn't contain is excitement at the prospect of a week away with his friends doing lots of outdoor activities. Thankfully the weather has stayed dry for the most part - I hope! I'll have his favourite dinner ready and I can't wait to give him a big hug - I do love him and have missed him more than he'll ever know!!!
As it's the first Friday in May, it's an Elemental Challenge over on the Daring Cardmakers. It's a bit of a fairy and butterfly themed one which ties in so well with the Dovecraft FairyTales collection that I've used on my creation.
I've made an easel card using one of the elements from the decoupage pack as a topper. Fussy cut butterflies finish it off and I've added glitter glue to give the butterflies extra sprakle.
This is the board that I've chosen and you need to pick 3 elements from it for your creation - colour counts as one. You can see lots more inspiration HERE and I hope that you'll join in.
I will have more of the Fairytale collection together with other new Trimcraft collections during May and June at free demos that I'm doing at The Range Stores. My calendar for May is as follows:
Sunday 5 May - The Range Aylesbury
Sunday 12 May - The Range Luton
Sunday 19 May - The Range Romford
Sunday 26 May - The Range St Albans
Have a lovely weekend,
