Well…a little later than planned…it was such a beautiful evening when I got back from the Crafty Stash crop that Lee suggested a trip to the pub & supper out…too good an offer to miss!!! So I hope I’m not too late for Debs to benefit from the heads up on what photo’s to choose for the crop kit LO’s!!!
The sneak peek had revealed a lot of purple…a colour I don’t gravitate towards, so I originally thought I’d use B&W photo’s for both LO’s, but then I remembered a photo of Nathan, taken when he was off school feeling poorly, & as his duvet is Royal Blue, decided to keep it as colour.
The second LO had a LOT of purple…with bit of green thrown in… 
There was quite a lot of class kit bits left over… so my challenge going forward will be to use up those (mainly purple!) bits in future LO’s of my own design…hmmmm!!!! Don’t hold your breath!!!!
Anyhow…another enjoyable Saturday at the Crafty Stash crop, I hope you have as good a day tomorrow Debs!!
I’m off to bed now, so thanks for dropping by…& those of you that are managing to fully take part in Shimelle’s on-line crop party this weekend…I hope you’re all having a fab time…can’t wait to check out the challenge entries in the forum.
Nite Nite

Two beautifully put together layouts Sandi. I don't use a lot of purple either, but I love what you've done here
Wow these are just beautiful and I adore the colors....Yay for using up the stash!!!
Enjoy your day sweet friend!!!
Thank you! I stuck to black and white pictures as I think that works well with the purple. Not a colour I have chosen myself before but I actually really liked these layouts. What fun we had trying to keep the rosettes glued to the page. I love them and will try them again, think they work well on 'boys' pages where a flower is a bit feminine but need to find a way to anchor them down easier!
I had my first scrap-related accident today as you will see on my blog! You know the lovely silver buttons that needed the hoopy bit on the back cut off? Well I had mine nestled in my hand, scissors cutting through the plastic/metal, the button went flying off in search of the table opposite and the scissors kept cutting .... through my skin - OUCH! I did ask Sue if she thought I needed to go to the QE2 hospital but she just gave me a withering look and pointed me in the direction of the plates of lemon cake! Something to boost my sugar levels after the shock?
I'm not much of a purple user myself but I love the way you've used it in those LOs - especially with the splash of lime green :)
Enjoyed the Bowie too! Am off to investigate the playlist maker ....
Gorgeous layouts, Sandi :-)
