Last Part!!

Hi All! I have spent today trying to get my car to go..like me it has decided that it doesn't like the snow and ice!! I started off digging the poor thing out..it was covered in snow. I had parked it next to my neighbours and for one awful moment I thought I was digging out the wrong one as they are a similar colour.

But no, it was my little cutsie under all that white stuff. She was a sorry state, icy, snowie and very cold! Yesterday she started on the first turn of the key but today she gave a pathetic splutter and died. By this time she was not the only one that had almost terminal cold...my hands were white..even with gloves on..and wet! My feet..even in boots were tingling, so I decided to adjourn to the kitchen and a warm cup of tea..and a quick call to the RAC, lol!!

The bad news is they have an other weather warning out for more heavy snow on Thursday/Friday!!! Eeek...take it back...I don't need any more!!

I didn't take a photo of my car as I was too busy scraping and digging, but I have one of the garden that I had taken earlier. It looks lovely..if you only have to look at it!!

And here's one of the man himself...I told him not to eat the snow...but would he listen..no!! I had cleared the paths yesterday but today I had to do it again. As I was clearing them..yet again..Charlie decided to help and eat them clear!!! Needless to say I had more success than he had...but he had fun, despite a cold tongue.

OK, enough idle chatter!! Today is the last of the Element Packs in the Colour Basic Kit and it's slightly different from the others...this one was made with boys in mind..no bows or flower. This should please Bettina as she made a fantastic January Screen Saver Page using a photo of her grandson and of the papers form the Colour Basics Kit....but she would really have liked some boy stuff in the kit.

It is a great page and what a wonderful photo! I love the layout and the hearts are a clever touch, they set it off to perfection...beautiful!! Thank you for sharing it.

So Bettina these are for you...well, and the rest of you too, lol!! Have a look and see what you think.

That's it for today, it's evening now in my corner of the world..a dark and icy one too. So, stay warm or cold...depends where you are, lol!! See you tomorrow and there could be a little something for you!!

Thank you, June, (and Bettina...LOL) for the wonderful new elements. LOVE them.

We have had only a light snow. Today it was 60 in SW Kansas. So weird for this time of year. We really need some moisture for the crops.

Loved you photo share.

Hugs!

The snow on the trees in your garden is so pretty. Poor charlie looks bewildered by it all. Thanks for the elements. Lovely as always!

HarleyGirl said...

just downloaded Color Basics and totally love it. I enjoyed reading about Charlie's antics too. I have 4 dogs and a cat. I gotta tell you the cat makes more mischief than all 4 dogs...lol

Hi June, oh boy it does look cold. I bet Charlie is really have fun.

I wonder what our dogs would do in snow. Mine hasn't ever been to the beach even though we don't live that far from the ocean but mum's who I now babysit full-time has often been in the waves. Mum and I are going to take them in the next month so it will be interesting to see Shadow - she loves the water but has never had it actually chase her - hehe.

Thank you today for these gorgeous elements. I feel so spoilt with all the lovely things you are always sharing.

Big Hugs, Keryn

I'm so excited to use this freebie! My husband and I took a hot air balloon ride in Az on a vacation once - we have some great pics from it! Thank you!

Gorgeous, just love it! Thanks for sharing your talent with the digital scrap world!

Thanks for sharing the pics! Is there anywhere that it ISN'T snowing? It is even snowing in my neck of the woods, 2nd one this year, which is very odd considering before this year the last snow was over 5 years ago.

Looks like you got lots of snow!! Drive carefully on those slippery roads.

Thanks for another set of wonderful elements.

Karla said...

Your garden is indeed very beautiful! I would be happy to take a bit of the snow off you hands, but it would melt here in our dry, warm central Texas. We would be glad of ANY sort of precipitation here! The photo of Charlie is so cute.

Thank you for the sweet kit. I like those balloons!
