I feel a bit guilty

I just wondered, whats the rules on copying a card. I was slurping wine til 1 this morning and work up a bit worse for wear and realised that I had to make a card for a little boy who is 5 today. I really genuinely couldn't think of anything so I copied one of your cards. Is this ok. I wouldn't mind if anyone copied one of my cards. Only I am sitting here having a fit of the guilts.

Don't know if I dare say. But I will say that it was very very easy and if I were selling it, it would cost me about 50p to make. Also the person whose card it was, can be very strict I reckon. Suffice to say it wasn't one of yours but your cards are gorgeous.

Oh OK, cor needed a lot of arm bending, it was the cow in the grass from JM's kids collection. I recently bought a pad of different coloured paper from lidls and there you have it. I am officially a fraud.

Mind you. Thats a good card to sell as it probably didn't even cost 50p to make.

HOW DARE YOU....I AM SO SHOCKED THAT SOME ONE WOULD DO SUCH A THING....

Shocked and angry that you feel guilty....No worries....I think we all do it every now and then
PMSL at me being strict.

I have made a new album called I copied.... Actually it would be really nice to see all of the cards that have been reproduced (nice way of saying - lazy cow, couldn't think of your own designs eh?)

Gosh, If anyone ever sees me out of the Arts & Crafts room again. Tell me off. Am bloody furious. I left Mumsnet before because I got too involved in stuff.

Right Girls - back me up. Never ever let me out of Arts & Crafts. Ta

Ave just looked through loads of scrapbooking pages. They are gorgeous. In fact had a conversation with one of my friends today about this. She said she couldn't understand why people bothered. I bet if she saw your pages (at least I think they were yours) she would start doing it.
I registered but I don't know what pages were yours JM.
