It is testament to the quality of That’s Crafty! MDF
Alterable Surfaces that no matter the media thrown, there is no warping!
One of my favourite Alterables, an MDF heart makes
an appearance. I hold my hands up… I am head over heels for those MDF
hearts. I’m sure they will continue to
make an appearance long after Valentine’s Day!
