Club AOTM Exclusive Tube. She is

showcasing the beautiful IB

Elena Dudina AOTM Scrap

by Ladyhawwk Designs. Does she

bite into the enchanted fruit?

Is the magic cast upon the fruit to

be trusted or be advised to be wary?

These questions are not easily answered

just by looking upon the fruit. The answer

lies with the caster of the magic & does

she trust the person. It may taste like heaven

but be careful you do not bite into hell.

scrap kit Sweet Sorrow by Karmalized.
Sorrow isn't something pretty & colorful.
Sadness & emotion can color your world
grey. Light can find it hard to break
through as can happiness.  Do not
abandon those whose worlds are
grey. Stay by them and give them support.
When they are ready to find light, they
will need your guidance to help them.
