There’s a big discussion going on over at the Paperclipping Digi Show about purple and colour in digiscrapping in general – check it out!
I’ve even had a chat about it with my husband Phill and he pointed out I’ve done quite a few purple layouts. So, here’s a few of my purple layouts for everyone to hate! LOL
Some of these date back to my first days of digital scrapbooking, I almost didn’t include them, but then why shouldn’t you all see where I started out from? Click on the image for full credits.

Another purple success story – by Seth Godin
So don’t let the naysayers put you off!
Actually, an interesting thought is that the colours you scrapbook with are not necessarily your favourites, but rather those colours that match the mood of your story or colours of your photos.
I know there are a lot of passionate purple lovers out there, but I guess they just don’t buy digital scrapbooking kits as much as the purple-ambivalent among us.
Gorgeous! It's funny, because one of my all-time favorite layouts is purple and black (it's one of the Halloween layouts I've done). It's just not a color I'm typically drawn to, or typically inspires me.
These are really pretty, though!
