Happy Birthday

I am using an image cut from my Silhouette machine.  My hubby really bought the machine thinking it would be better than the Cricut machine I own but like me I think it is too much of a chore for him to get it out and set it up. When I use it I usually sit down and cut out a whole bunch of things at once and then put them in envelopes to use later, I would not get the machine out to just cut one thing like I do when I use my dies.  Maybe if it was always set up and connected to my computer but we have them stored away, no room to have them out all the time.   How about you do you own one of these cutting machines?

The framing was done with a spellbinder die, added some pearls to the flowers, and some stickles to the leaves but it doesn't show up well.

It looks like the Mid West is getting hit with more storms again.  Yesterday we were coming home from grocery shopping and we saw this wall of clouds coming so my hubby pulled over onto a dirt country road and was taking pictures until there was some close lightning and very loud thunder, he asked if I would drive and he could take pictures from inside the car so we switched places, I didn't even get down the road a 1/2 mile and we had such force winds and heavy rain that it was hard to stay on the road and I had to cut my speed quite a bit, it was that way all the way home. The roads were flooding over quite quickly but we made it home and I was so thankful we have a garage so that we could unload the groceries without getting soaked.

Here is one of the pictures he took.

I hope everyone is keeping safe through these storms, and that your week is going well,
Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today :)
