Crafty Wednesday, the Garden and more.

I have the next three days off work.  Dude was off helping his daughter who was in a car accident yesterday. She is doing okay but her car is totaled and she was very sore today. 

I needed to get ready for Easter and wanted to make something for the gates. 

I got a couple of pieces of Styrofoam and cut out a shape of a rabbit. 



Spray painted them, both sides. 


And tied them with a large ribbon to the gate.  Later the dog barked at them until he found them not to be a threat.





I have been wanting to try a box card for a while but was intimidated by them. I used the cartridge from Cricut called All Occasion Box Cards.  Instead of adding the cutouts inside they had , I used Easter buttons and removed the shanks. 


I am addicted to these cards and will make more. 


They fold nicely .


And fit into an A2 envelope. 


This is Holy Week and I took time out to take a rosary walk with the dog and sheep.


Dude has been catching up in the garden.  We are way behind but, for Colorado, we have time to catch up.  We were travelling a lot and then we had issue with dud seeds causing us to start all over.  


Garlic, radishes, and carrots are coming up after only a few weeks. The garlic was planted long ago to get a good freeze before coming up. 


Lettuces and spinaches. 


I spent the rest of the afternoon moving rock to the base of the house so nothing grows next to it and ruin the siding. 

Tomorrow, more crafting and a nature walk.  We will see what else we can get into. 

peace
