Love this design Chris and the rich colours are fabulous. The box shape is amazing - it looks quite difficult to make, but it really is effective.
Love and hugs, Sylvia xxxx

Totally smashing Chris I love it. Love green:) they look as if they are having so much fun. Great colouring and I like the different shape, the front of your card is like a box, is it? Now you've got me guessing:) xxx

Bridgette said...

Hello Chris - Thank you for your lovely comments - I love this take on an easel card - also the restricted use of colour - it really works - are they shrink plastic flowers on the leading edge of the card? - really effective - a work of art - simply gorgeous as usual - Bridgette xxx

Hiya
Yeah I think I prefer the rain to the horseflies, I was bitten by one of them before and my arm was twice the size of what it should be, nasty little buggers, it better be nice next weekend my son is getting married.

Kay Carley said...

Hiya Chris. I guess you must be busy with that decorating as I've just stopped by and see you haven't posted anything new up yet! It's amazing how time consuming all this house improvement malarkey is isn't it?

The plumber has been here all week sorting out all the new pipe work into the new bathroom as well as setting up a new waste system for it as the bathroom is being moved from one end of the house to the other. Thankfully with it now being the weekend we aren't having to check with the plumber first to see if we can use the hot and cold water and flush the loo!

Hi Chris, I've been trying to visit some of my fave blogs (and some of my fave bloggers) this evening but my back is killing me and you are my last stop. I love these little boxes you make, they are sooooooooo clever and sooooo cute. I enjoyed your last card too - love the beach scene and the dimension you have achieved. I'll be back soon but in the meantime, take care, and thank you for you lovely comments! Warmest wishes, Lesley
