  3. Great cards and great timing. I just bought two new word dies that I’m eager to use – and now I have a whole bunch of techniques to try! Thank you 🙂

  4. I just adore this sew in love die! I love stitching dies and wish I could afford this die. Great job creating this die.

  7. I love that sew heart die. You can go from simple (die cut a panel and let card front show through) to complicated (by stitching the hearts) making it a versatile die!
