This weekend I participated in the Sweet Sentiment Surf’s Up Retreat. I cannot say enough good things about Sweet Sentiment, and this virtual retreat was fantastic. Some digital images were provided, but the majority of the supplies were things I already had in my craft stash. The pacing was great. There were well-timed breaks throughout the day. I didn’t have to worry about missing something when I needed a snack, lunch or dinner. Additionally, because everyone was using items from their stash, all the projects turned out different. It was so much fun to see what others made.
