Sew Lovely, Sweet Stitches DSP
A darling triple slider card made with Sew Lovely, and the Sweet Stitches DSP. I just love the numerous possibilities in this set. Featured in this card is the new seam binding ribbon, not the sort you get in UK, the US ones are much more refined and silky in texture and to die for! […]
