Steampunk scrapbooking?

Huh! I guess it says something if your art is offered for sale without your permission (Someone thinks it is worth selling, at least).

What does it say about my art if someone on Etsy is offering my Steampunk painting as part of a Steampunk collage sheet for use in scrapbooking and decoupage. For $2.99 a sheet.

I'm mildly irritated. My signature has been removed from the image, and I'm of the opinion that I should have some say in who is making money from my art (very small amounts of money in this case :) )!

Mostly I'm bemused by the whole thing.

This is the internet and I'm fine with the knowledge that I can't control where my art ends up. I like the concept of Creative Commons, in general, to foster creativity, plus art is only a hobby for me, so I can have the luxury of not needing to worry too much about copyright. This is the first time anything like this has happened, though.

ETA - I contacted the seller, and it's been removed.
