Lime Tart - Full Tart

This is the Lime Tart - Full Tart, from May - finally made time to have a play....

The papers are My Mind's Eye 'Bloom & Grow' and the large white sheets (which are obviously difficult to photograph) are Heidi Swapp Invisibles including the alphabet....


I have used only products provided in the kit for these four layouts....


This first one is DGD #1 and DGD #2, taken when we were home in Scotland last November....

This large flower was in the kit, as is....




Using the Heidi Swapp Invisibles alphabet, I used the ink pad to go over the chosen letters, then gave it a wipe with a tissue, to clean the resist bits (dots) and voila! any colour you want to match your project....



Next, is a photo of my wee brother and our Great Aunt Liz, back in 1966.....



The Heidi Swapp Invisibles again, love the intricate designs on the 12x12 sheet, which I cut up and used two different ink colours to highlight them - aren't they gorgeous....



The title 'Memories' is cut on Cricut from Home Decor at 1 3/4" ....



The journaling is computer generated....



Layout #3 is DGD #1 again, with The Tilt, she went through a stage that every time Granny brought out the camera her head had to fall over to the side!!! "It's like this Granny" she would say.....



Heidi Swapp Invisibles alphabet again, this time inked in pink....






And, finally, DGD #1 again....


This time I used a tutorial from Nanne over at Stuck On U Sketches for the flower - cut from Graphically Speaking on the Cricut - there are four layers, the petals were scored on my Scor-Pal, some inking, and a beautiful bloom....



So, head on over to www.stuckonusketches.blogspot.com for the tutorial for the flower....

You will need to scroll back to the post from 23rd September - thanks Nanne xx

Visit Nanne's blog at

She does some amazing stuff with the Cricut and is one of the four designers from SOUS....








So, there we have it - four layouts and some cards still to post, from one kit - the Half Tart and A La Tarte for May still to come....

Thanks for dropping by....

Wow, Jane! What a lot of beautiful layouts from that kit! I'm amazed at the "invisibles" - those are SO COOL - SO versatile! Your DGDs are just precious! I laughed out loud at "the tilt!" What a great memory that one will be!
