EZ Cut for making boxes

In recent days I've purchased an EZ Cut machine..  I've been waiting and waiting for an A4 size machine to come on to the market and it finally has.
I've wanted one this size because most of my cards are A5 in size and wont go through the most of the current die cut machines.  I've also wanted to be able to make pretty window in my display boxes..  NOW I CAN.
Here is a card I made recently for a good friends birthday... The window in the box was done with the Curved Rectangles Nestabilities.
Happy Thursday everyone!

Easel Card

This is an Easel Card..  A few of my friends have made one of these cards so I just had to have a go.
The flower on this is one that Joanne (Mainly Flowers) designed and another friend,  Patti Jo,  gave her touch to it.  I then in turn added more petals giving it my own touch..  Joanne calls it a "Scallop Punch Flower"... I think I've 'nick named' it a "Frilly Flower".  The link for Joanne's flower is here...

It certainly puts a smile on my face when I see how one idea can evolve into another and so on.
There should be more on the inside of this card but I haven't decided yet what the card will be used for.
