PLANTING SOME LOVE

Hi everyone

Today I have another card which I made some time ago to share using this lovely Topper bearing the image created by Elisabeth Bell.  I think it is called something like 'Planting some Love'.  I love Elisabeth Bell's creations, have several of her stamps and each and every one are so cute and stamp up so lovely.  Then I spotted these in Topper form (from the Hobby House I think) .  Well it goes without saying I could not resist.
