Storms

PHEW- Yesterday was a cooker, but thank goodness it's drizzling today and it's cooled off nicely- I went and had a swim yesterday evening, just before 7pm and said to Wayne it looked like a storm brewing. You know the dark clouds and the *feel* in the air- WELL!! Little did we know that storm would cause lots of talking today-hahaha. It built up till about 11pm when the first rolls of thunder could be heard, and then a few flashes of lightning- by 1am our windows were rattling and the dogs where howling and barking. You couldn't hear each other talk - It was a beautiful sight to watch. We had a huge electric storm which is unusual my little Coastal City ( it happens a lot inland due to heat)- but here it's usually a 5 minute crash flash and GONE- LOL. So to everyones excitement last night we had a long and BIG one-

Here is a photo sent to me via e-mail ( not the best quality but you can get a picture of what the sky's looked like)-

The lightning itself looked like it was from the sky to the earth- AWESOME!!! Amazing to watch nature at work!

Have you checked out the NEW challenges for this month at DSO yet- WOOOHOOO, there is one hell of a HUGE mega kit to snag if you do all of them this month, and remember to check mine out too- phew the girls are going GREAT Guns already with their kits and QP's and LO's!!!

What you would have EXPECTED in there???- ROTFLMAO!! They are my *weapon of choice* when making papers and I use mine over and over again!! I LOVE TEXTURES and so do my CT team, hahaha. So I make them all the time and keep the ones I like best for my bags- I hope you enjoy them too- I made you some papers today with these textures so you can see what can be done with them-

But before I hand that one to you- Beth has been a busy girl-LOL She has just gotten her brand new computer and can now create without worrying about it crashing all the time-hahaha, BL_NoteWorthyFrame_Preview

Grab them here on Beth's Blog- *please leave her some love*

And here you go, Some stone washed looking papers ( used the colours from my challenge for these)- Grab them here. http://www.4shared.com/file/39728516/1e2fdded/kb-bagsampler1.html

Remember on Sunday the bag is gone- so don't loose out.  Now I've got to help my son put in some contact lenses! LOL, he's been battling for over half an hour now to stick his finger in his eye but he's just not getting it. He got them for playing sport ( usually wears glasses), so we are hoping he will at least see the ball better now as he refuses to wear glasses on the cricket field- hahaha. BOYS! Sending hugs and loves Kim

Weeeeweeeeweee, I'm first.

I LOVE electrical storms and being on the Highveld we get some real BIG ones.

There's a good trick for inserting contact lenses but I have to be there to show you.

I love the bag and I'm busy doing the colour challenge with that NOW.

Thanks for the lovely papers.
