Hi
Before i show my card,today i was browsing Ebay and i was so disappointed..... last night i read Mo Manning's blog and joined in her Stamp Out Stamp Theives!!!!
Well low and behold there in front of me while browsing was a Magnolia Tilda CD as the seller called it.
How low are some people honestly....you want the items by the original artists then do what us decent folk do and PAY for them not steal and make your own cd's or attach your watermark to the image.
Good GOD!!!!!!!
Where have all the GOOD PEOPLE GONE???????
Please take the Stamp Out Thieves Badge at the top of my blog if you pay a visit and help spread the word!!!

Now my card for today........

Well i know im not as good as Lori, Bev  or Fairy Pickles yet lol, but i think im getting quite good.

I have used Doodle Bug papers

Two Die-cut Plaques, one that i embossed with Hearts and then coloured over with chalks

and added a little stickles glitter.

I cut a Heart from Core'dinations card and decorated it with Prima flower,wild orchid rose and raffia and ribbon and then attached a pin i decorated too.

There are a few gems and a couple of brads.

I then added a sentiment

"Kisses and cuddles"

Tilda has been coloured using Promarkers.

Hope you enjoyed your visit.

Hugs Alison
