Hey friends! Welp the tech gremlins had some fun with us today! I went live with Altenew to craft and chat about the upcoming Secret Garden Virtual Retreat that I’m one of the instructors for. We got kicked out of the livestream and had to restart multiple times lol (Bridget from Altenew was moderating for me and we were joking about our combined chaos – and apparently between the two of our our chaos was so great that it kept nuking the live…….). In the end we got there though and had a fun time. I will link to the 3 parts below if y’all want to see how this card came together!
