It's been snowing heavily for two days now! Here are a few pictures I took to show all the pile up.
We actually got a total of 6 inches on Wednesday and another couple inches expected as I'm typing this.
Why do dogs just love to plow their faces into the snow? They get so happy and full of energy when it snows. Just like they do right after a bath! LOL! It's like they have taken a happy pill!
This is the tree in front of my yard. Here in Washington, we normally get just a dusting of snow every year and it melts rather quickly. Now and then we'll get a good dumping (like about every 7 to 10 years) and never right before Christmas. So this is a treat - however it sure is making driving awful! Luckily I can work from home!Well, where ever you are, I hope that you are warm, safe and busy with last minute Christmas preparations!
LOVE the card. That spritz and flick technique is fabulous. Isn't it great how a little water takes your project to the next level?
ReplyDeleteI love your cheery card! Sounds like you all got quite a snow. A good day for crafting and sipping some hot chocolate!
ReplyDeleteNeat card...never thought about spritz with water. I love it! We are getting ice here so I know about the crappy driving in the weather...like yall I think we are getting our "bad winter" season this year.
ReplyDeleteReally pretty card,Laurie. Hey- do you know what is up with ASB?
ReplyDeleteIs Anne going to re-open it?It really just kinda pooped out which is so sad because it was so hopping before.
