JAI 127 Colour Combo

Life has thrown me into a bit of a whirlwind lately, and with that, my paper crafting went with it unfortunately.  It is the one thing I love to sit down and relax with when time allows, but have had no oomph and a huge lack of imagination.

Anyway, moving along. 

This week over at JAI, it is a colour combo challenge and had had this idea in mind for ages....so thank you ladies for getting me to pull myself together and do a little creating.  :o)
