Another Snow Day!

This is our third snow day in a row! We don't usually get enough snow in our area to warrant schools having equipment to clear parking lots and sidewalks so the kids can't go back yet. Hopefully tomorrow! My son is getting seriously board! It's so bad that he's been creating his own homework each night in an effort to keep with routine! I've got to laugh at that!

We're also in need of groceries after five days since the snow fell. So my husband made an attempt to get our Honda Civic up the long drive. He almost made it too! Thank goodness he had the sense to back the car in so that we didn't have to back out in this mess!




So this is our driveway today. A mucky mess of ice water and snow...I think that would be called slushy! That's how far hubby got the car before it got stuck. So he's out there now shoveling the rest so I can get to the store. I can see why schools are still closed if their parking lots and sidewalks look like this!

Anyway, with all these snow days, I've had a lot of time for crafting. Here's a card that I made for my dear friend's blog challenge. Audrey Pettit went on a little walk the other morning with her camera to photograph the beautiful snowy woods and posted some colors to use in a project. If you feel like joining in her challenge, she would love it and she has a prize package for the winner! Click on her name and head over to see the color swatch and get the details.


I made the die cuts for this card, the fancy rectangle and leafy twig, with my Silhouette. I love my Silhouette! I use it for almost every project! I think its well worth the investment!
