I had to work in the town 15 miles away today. It was snowing pretty hard & the deck had about an inch as hubby drove me to work (I'm a chicken!) He dropped me off & headed home. An hour & 1/2 later he called to say he never made it home but had stopped to eat & was on his way back. We live 1 mile on the other side of the river & the bridge was closed shortly after we crossed it. Hubby came back & waited for me to finish work. I called it a day at 3pm when the bridge was again open. We drove slowly & boy was I glad to reach home! It's a gorgeous site as long as you aren't trying to go somewhere! 
So much for the forecast of 1-2 inches. The hospital had 9 inches & we came home to 7 with snow still falling tonight. Hubby had to dig around the driveway lights so they would show. I celebrated being safe & warm by making a tag card for today's PTI Anniversary contest. I printed the image twice so I could pop up the flowers which also have Stickles & tiny pearls added. 
I used PTI Mega Mat Stack & embossed it with PTI Linen & Canvas Impression Plate. Added pink twine & an enamel dot plus the white ribbon. Thanks for making it through this long post. Edited to Add: Also entering Die Cut Divas & CAS-ual Fridays.
Oh my, what an epic journey!
ReplyDeleteGlad you're home safe and sound!
Your tag card is the sweetest!
that twine really ties everything together beautifully!
Thanks Greta!
Isn't the snow incredible? We got five inches here and it was nice that my kids got to see a little bit of winter today. I love the popped up flowers on your card! It is very beautiful.
ReplyDeleteWhoa! Not a good kind of surprise, that weather. Glad you're both home & safe!
ReplyDeleteLove this tag - the popped up flowers are so fun :)
Glad you made it home ok. It has been a long bad winter.
ReplyDeleteOh Greta that sounds so scary to drive in. Sure does look beautiful! What a good guy you have,
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh I LOVE your tag...it's gorgeous, beautiful layers and love the glitter . I am out of color ink and need to bury and get some so I can play.
So glad you and hubby made it to work and back without mishap! I have had more than enough of this cold, snowy winter weather. It is very cold this morning and we are in for another round of snow this weekend. Ugh.
ReplyDeleteYour card is so very nice with the popped up flowers!
Hi, Greta! I'm so glad you both made it home safely! Love the photos.
ReplyDeleteWhat a DARLING tag-card! I love it!
Oh my goodness Greta, I'm so glad you both made it home safe and sound. This winter has had some crazy weather huh. Your tag is as cute as can be, love the dimension!!
ReplyDeletewow... your little tag card is absolutely amazing, greta!! so sorry you got snow... it was in our forecast, but thankfully we didn't get any!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds scary, Greta! I am glad that both of you are safe home. Love the fun shape of your tag!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you made it back home again safely!!!!!
ReplyDeleteYour tag is just gorgeous--I love the pretty colors you used!
I was reading about your snow and thought, oh, they got snow where they live, then I glanced at your "About" and realized it was the same snow. I live in Portland. :) I'm glad you got home safely and got to make a card. I like the idea of using the Mega Mat Stack. Stay warm!
ReplyDeleteSo glad to hear you are both safe. Storms and their aftermath are scary!
ReplyDeleteYour card is a sweetie. Love the beautiful shape!
Snow, slippery roads, icy conditions: not fun in any respect! When our conditions are like this, my car stays parked and my husband drives me. Yours is a gem for transporting you to and from work, and I'm ultra glad you arrived home safe and sound! The photos are beautiful with the lights glimmering from their snowy blankets, but still...enough winter!! Your tag is a wonderful showcase of your 'snuggled inside toasty warm' celebration! Sweet little flowers...we need them to bloom 'in real life'! Hugs to you, dear Greta~c
ReplyDeleteLover your bright tag Greta. Glad you are home and safe, snow is not fun to deal with when you have to work outside the home. Stay warm and safe.
ReplyDeleteGosh so glad you made it home safely. We don't have any snow just this relentless rain and winds. We are in the middle of a another storm which is due to peek Saturday at mid day. The wind is howling around outside as I type.
ReplyDeleteOnto your tag. I love the addition of the pink twine and the flowers are way cute. hope your parcel won't be too long. Margreet has hers already!! hugs Mrs A.
I love what you did for this challenge, Great! It looks so fresh - and so especially spring-like next to those amazing snow photos! I'm so glad you two made it home safely after that harrowing journey!! Hugs, Darnell
ReplyDeleteWow...you both are very brave and I am so happy to hear you made it back home safely. No fun I am sure. Your card is just too cute and I love that you used a shaped card...so fun.
ReplyDeleteWhat a day, indeed! Glad you got home safely! Snow is pretty if you don't have to deal with it! Love this little tag! What a pretty shape!
ReplyDeleteWhat a delightful card. So glad you could join us for the Die Cut Divas' challenge.
ReplyDeleteWOW - what a day you had. We've had rain last Wednesday through all the weekend. We need the rain here - in the middle of a drought. Had no rain for 51 days.
This is just wonderful! I love the shape and unique design and those flowers look amazing! Thanks so much for playing along with us over at CAS-ual Fridays Challenge!
ReplyDeleteGlad you got back home safely we have been having lots of snow here in St.Louis, and below 0 weather.
ReplyDeleteSweet card! I really like the colors, and glad you joined us at the Die Cut Diva's
What a great idea to turn that die into a tag, Greta! Such a pretty mix of elements. Thanks so much for joining the CAS-ual Fridays Challenge!
