Reminder of Copyright

Sadly, it has come to my attention that someone out there in Blogland is, shall we say, ‘borrowing very heavily’ to the point of all but copying several of my cards.

I would like to remind this particular person that ALL cards/artwork  etc. created by me & posted on this blog are copyrighted.  Information to that end has been posted to my sidebar since I started this blog but I have felt compelled to bring it to the top of the list as a reminder.  It does not matter which digital image or rubber stamp has been used from whatever company to create my cards. Whether this image has been provided as part of a DT assignment or otherwise is immaterial. The fact remains the same.  The card, artwork and the photograph of the card and those of the cropped images etc., remain my property.

Whilst imitation might indeed be considered, “the most sincerest form of flattery”*, to replicate someone else’s work and then pass it off as yours says more about you than me.

It is with great regret that I feel compelled to type this particular post.  I hope that the person responsible with take this as a final warning.  Should I discover that my work has been plagiarised in the future you will have left me no other choice than to take further action – including naming and shaming.
