Eight cards to brighten a wintery day

I’m sure I’m not the only one who thinks this has been a long, long winter and so it was good receive the most recent Card Boys box through the post. Once again there’s eight cards, and once again its hard to choose a single favourite.

All of them though brought a pop of much welcomed colour to my morning, and yes, even those on with dark backgrounds - they just make the colours pop even more.

Couldn’t you just dive into those leaves and smell the freshness right now? Or maybe a birthday party is just what we need…

There’s plants in vases and plenty of yellow and orange flowers - I’ve been trying to work out what they are and are settling on cone flowers for the yellow, and perhaps dahlias or gerberas for the orange ones. But they could be any number of other flowers either, and that’s ok.

Abstract shapes, perhaps for when you’re not sure what to say or friendly turtles swimming in an unrealistic bubblegum pink pond. Both made me smile though.

We all need to hear that we’re fantastic at times, and what better way than by post? I’m between these two for my favourites this month, but then again it really could be any of them.
