    Both lay-outs are gorgeous, but I'm especially WOWed by the purple one. Your design on that one is so beautiful and innovative. The mix of white with purple looks very elegant.

    Two gorgeous pages Lizzy. So many lovely details to unpack and savour. The Jacarandas are out here too - our four year old DGS said on Friday. "Look Granny, the Jacarandas are turning purple, it must be almost Christmas" I was surprised he remembered that from last year. Thanks for the inspiration.
