I decided on a sewing themed card for my DT offering this week, using this sweet Milk Coffee digi, coloured with Promarkers. The paper is Papermania, Sew Lovely, all I had to do was plonk the topper in the middle, the fabric effect circle and stitching are all printed on, I just added a red mat. The heart tag was made with a stamp from a matching Sew Lovely stamp set, stamped onto linen print paper, fussy cut out, and topped with a Sew Lovely ribbon loop and button. For my "Bounty of Buttons" element, I created a frame of buttons round the edge of the topper, from my enormous button stash (I have a bit of a thing for buttons!), varying the colours and sizes to add interest. To finish, I added a big, red, satin bow and a couple of pins.
