A Recap of the ‘Countryside Inn Suite Collection’ Crafts

In the midst of life’s constant hustle, I find solace in crafting. Now in my fourth week of creating beautiful cards, each sunrise spent with “Early Morning Crafts and Coffee With Lorrie“ has been a revelation. This week’s focus, the “Countryside Inn Suite Collection,” from pages 64-65 in Stampin’ Up’s 2023 Annual Catalog, has been an absolute delight to work with. As a beginner, I can genuinely feel my skills blossoming with each card I craft, and this collection, with its calming blues and delicate motifs, has further amplified my passion and artistic journey. Let’s delve into the week’s highlights and relive the moments with this marvelous collection.

Setting the Stage: Beginning of Week 4

As Monday dawned, I eagerly embraced the “Countryside Inn Suite Collection.” Its calming hues and intricate patterns became a canvas that reflected both my growing expertise and excitement.

Crafting Chronicles: Venturing into the Collection

By Tuesday, the world of the collection had fully unfolded before me. Crafting the first card was not just an activity, but a soulful experience. The powerful message was “I’m so thankful you’re in my life” Furthermore, tailored especially for caregivers, it sets a peaceful tone for the day ahead.

Midweek Reflections: Diving Deeper

With the break of Wednesday, another card from this exquisite collection came to life. The message was “May the years ahead be filled with lasting joy.” This is the first embossed card. Just beautiful. For those who might have missed our live sessions, there’s always an opportunity to revisit and immerse in our shared crafting journey.

Dawn’s Delight: Further Exploration

As Thursday’s sun rose, so did our collective crafting spirit. With the third card’s message of Birthday Wishes, not only did I explore the depths of the “Countryside Inn Suite Collection,” but also realized how far I’ve come since I started.

Friday Finale: A Week’s Resplendent Conclusion

The week’s journey culminated with a final crafting session on Friday. Each crafted pieces was a lot of fun., especially from this collection, stands as a testament to the love, and care.  We had new card sizes and cuts, more cut outs and stamps.

Until next time,

Spend some time in your happy place.
