BUGABOO STAMPS : "an oldie but a goodie"

Amongst the hundreds of Bugaboo Stamps available there are real beauties ... and this is one of my favourites:


This gorgeous little Cupid is called Deacon Cupid - and he is coloured using alcohol markers and a white gel pen.

To make up my card I used an offcut of digital paper (roses), a heart diecut, a scrap of lace, white satin ribbbon and a metal heart charm.

I didn't add a sentiment as not all of my customers are English speaking.  I want the card to appeal to all languages - and the very clear "Valentine's" theme will speak louder than any sentiment can.
