| We’re pleased to introduce,
Eliza, one of the new sisters at Anna Griffin! The
Eliza Collection is charming, feminine, and sweet.
Floral patterns in pretty pink, dusty blue, and lively
lime give Eliza an English garden feel. Come craft
with these new papers as you discover a whole new
dimension to pleating and learn to tie a threaded
knot. Plus, craft a beautiful card that ties closed. |
