Love XOX card (Bugaboo image)

Hey guys,

I have another card for you today and this one is created with a cute little Bugaboo image. I must admit I had seen the word "Love" being coloured this way (in a different colour in my defence hehe) so it's not an original idea but I thought it looked great so wanted to try it too. (I have just discovered that the image was coloured by a lovely blog buddy of mine and brilliant cardmaker, Manderly and here's a link to her card. It's a small blogging world isn't it hehe?)

I have used pearls and the gorgeous flower is from my company, Flourish with a Bling who are having a 50% off sale all throughout February, the only items not discounted are the already amazingingly priced value packs, everything else is half off!! I hope you'll check out our website as we have our own unique products and we post worldwide.
