Michelle, Wow, love this card. You are amazing! I do get alot of ideals from all the cards you do, in fact I ordered a set of 120 prismcolors just so I can make more cards. Thanks for all you do for all of us.

What a terrific idea for creating a table and corner appearance! The entire layout is very fresh and appealing. I was going to comment about this as a Blog Candy response, but with over 400 hits, well…. Am enjoying your great work. TFS
This is beautiful! You make it look so simple!
Gorgeous. I love the shadow and the “corner” of the wall. Thanks for sharing all your hard work with us!

What a great card! Love your shadow!!! Such depth!
Love this one. I might have to get this set of hers. Great colors and love your shadow
I loved the effect on this card so I had to do one of my own. I took a couple of tries but I got it! Different image, differnt layout, reversed colors but it is way cool if I do say so myself. ROFL
Look here to see it.
