APFP - Cherished Colour

Good morning peeps, I'm so excited about this challenge because I just got a whole load of new PTI stash, wooo hooo! It's just so lush to work with and at the same time I don't want to use it but needs must! This is my entry for this weeks challenge at A Passion for Papertrey although it's not necessarily my favourite colour (which is pink!) but it's one of my favourite PTI colour schemes, hope you like and thanks for peeking!

First Day....

I can't believe where the time has gone, my eldest baby (now being 11) started high school, he was sooo excited and has had his school bag packed for a whole week and what he wasn't taking in that is your guess...lol Thought I'd just post these few photos of him with his friend, they look so grown up and smart (suppose that wont last long...lol) He will probably go mad when he see's these but it's a mother's prerogative! He's the one on the right!
