  4. Oh yeah, this brings back some memories of how I used to use cardboard boxes to make space ships as a kid! All you needed was a cardboard box, crayons and some imagination. Great depiction Enigma!

  6. There's nothing better than playing with cardboard! I love the texture in your illustration.

    When my boys were younger I would create fun things to go with their birthday parties out of cardboard. From pirates, wild animals to space ships! I've always imagined making a grandfather clock out of cardboard. Maybe some day.

  8. the textures here are beautiful. we use to pile in a cardboard box and roll down the hill, looking back that could have been dangerous, but it was loads of fun, for free!
