Beauty in the Storm


It was storming here when I woke up this morning. There were some unique cloud patterns, so I took some pictures.

This was about the middle of the storm. The picture really doesn't reflect it well, but the clouds were parted in a perfect line as if the sky had divided itself. 
This was towards the end when it had almost stopped raining. I was called outside to see this cloud that looked to me like the eye of a hurricane in the sky. Our storms often come off the edges of hurricanes passing through to the coast at this time of year. 







The grass greened up as if by magic, overnight. Thank you Lord for the rain!

My first post and a giveaway

Welcome to my blog! Here you will find posts about my Etsy shop, krafterskorner, product reviews on other shops I have purchased items from, and the occasional post about my volunteer activities.

I am going to kick off with a giveaway. One winner will receive this ACEO that has not yet been listed in my shop.

Let's keep this simple. You will earn one entry for following my blog. You can earn one for hearting my shop. A third entry can be earned by featuring one of my items in a treasury and posting the link here in a comment. Buying an item from my shop earns you three entries. You can visit my shop here. http://www.etsy.com/shop/krafterskorner?ref=si_shop That is a total of six entries per person! Please leave a comment with your email or Etsy username so I have a way to contact you if you win.

Contest ends Friday August 5th at 9 PM Central Time. United States residents only please. I will select a winner using random.org on Saturday August 6th.
