Scrap Weekly in 2010: Week 4

This week's challenge from Ruth at Scrap Weekly in 2010 is to use tags on a layout, preferably in a different way to normal. I've thought about the 'different' part all week and only came up with one idea which was to turn 6 or 8 tags into a flower. However, I tried that today and didn't like how it turned out, so I admitted defeat and made a standard two-page layout - with vellum tags a part thereof.
I so liked my photos of a walk around The Lanes this week, especially the one with old sewing machines, that I wanted to make a layout featuring them. I changed the photos to black and white and knew I needed a two-page layout to include as many as possible. But I changed my mind - again - and printed the ones of choccywoccydoodah in colour, creating a layout in two halves: one black and white and plain, one red and white and bling!

The Lanes, Brighton

There is journaling on a tag under one of the photos which reads:
'Amongst the deserted cafes and months-long Sales of the deepest Recession since the 1930's, can be found a quirky, colourful, extravagant shop with stunning chocolate sculptures; Choccywoccydoodah.'
It took me a very long time to put this layout together today as I haven't done a two-page layout in ages and found it challenging. But enjoyable just the same!
