Distractions don't look like distractions until they finish distracting you!

 Hello!

Hope you're all well!

I won this stamp set a while ago, and purchased some things I 'needed' (The stencil is new); I made a card for my grandson!!

In other news, we've gone from scorching hot, to rain & cold. LOTS of rain. The mountain pass to the west of us was closed Thursday from a mudslide; they had just redid that highway last year! Our province is flooding, and Alberta is on fire. I told them I'd try to get the rain to go east over the Rocky Mountains!

Took a side trip down to the border yesterday to see what was needed to come back into Canada. The nice guys there told me my passport was fine. Said the US was still asking for proof of vaccine (not a problem) to enter the US until May 11.

I was also going to get my buckets full of gravel for the back patio project while my brother's here, he came back Thursday for a week.  It was pouring rain on that side of town, so I guess my buckets will wait until Wednesday or something.

My aunt & uncle are coming next weekend! Better go! Have a great rest of your weekend!

Talk to ya later!

Stay safe!

So happy to see the veggies are flourishing in your garden Gail which is more than can be said over here, so cold and wet everything is struggling to make growth, even in the greenhouse.

This is a fantastic way to use this bunch of carrots. It is perfect for a masculine card too. Very clever! Thanks for linking your card up with the Double D Challenge this week.
