Lime Tart - April Gallery is up!!!!!

Can't take my eyes off the fab work from the Lime Tart DT which is up in the gallery today....jump over to http://www.limetart.com/ and have a look. Don't forget to use the link to the Lime Tart Zest blog and have a look at all the exciting ideas that the DT are sharing there.

Here is some of my work for April using the Full Tart kit which was sold out... but Philippa has managed to put a few more kits together....so hurry over if you want to purchase a Full Tart kit - they won't last long!!

Love this picture taken of Taylor gazing off into the distance and having a little day dream whilst sitting on a swing. What boy doesn't love ice cream....and for Taylor boysenberry is the only flavour to have.....the simple pleasures of summer!!!

I really enjoy creating retro/vintage layouts and getting those old family photos into a layout -had a ball designing the "That Cute Finger" below.....yes that is me at about 1 year of age and I still put my finger to my lips if I am concentrating on something.....some habits you just can't break.

Now I can't wait to get my hands on the May kit and play some more!!!!

Long Time - No Blog!!

Where have the last few weeks gone....simply flown by...so lots to catch up on.

Firstly, a reveal of one of my layouts for the Lime Tart gallery for March, use the link to the right to go on over and look at more of the wonderful work in the gallery by the whole Lime Tart DT. The beautiful pinks in this kit were a lovely change from all the boy pages that I do...so a chance to scrap a page using pictures of my niece Sophie when she was a baby. LOVED the chipboard bird from ScrapFX in this kit....painted it up and gave it some personality with doodling and some bling.
I am now working with the Lime Tart Full Tart kit for May....and as usual it is simply gorgeous - bursting with fabulous colour and pattern with some amazing new papers. Having lots of fun with this one - a couple of sneaky pics below to encourage you to go on over to Lime Tart on the 14th to see the May kits in all their glory following the DT working their magic with the various Lime Tart kits on offer.

Finally - have you dropped into the Fiskars Ambassadors blog lately???http://www.fiskarscraft.typepad.com/ they are having lots of fun this month giving you prompts to help you do pages for your BOM (book of me). So often we scrap about our kids, our pets, special events etc - but how often do you scrap about ourselves?? Things that the kids you are scrapping about will love to know about you - now and in the future. There is lots of inspiration from the Ambassadors as well. Pop back regularly to see what they have been up to. There some wonderful ideas and layouts up already so rush on over to check it out.
