Design flaw which has the driveway sloping down toward the garage coupled with gutters that overflow onto the driveway added to inches of snow that are melting along with active rainfall=garage flood! We are making headway with a pump in front of the garage and used a shop vac multiple times to work on what is already in the garage. We stopped for lunch and the rain stopped too . Now the water in the garage is receding and the pump is able to get rid of the standing water instead of just keeping up with the rainfall. We knew it was going to be messy this week with all the snow that is still everywhere and temps not quite high enough to thaw ground so it will soak up the melt but high enough to have it raining instead of snowing.

WOW, so sorry.. It was nice that it stopped raining for you to have lunch... I'm sure spring can make a mess in that area, especially when you aren't on top of it....
I know all about those "design flaws," Gail. I live in a townhouse development, and everyone who has a two-story unit (like I do) has the same leak in the front bedroom. We've been trying for 28 years to figure out where it's leaking. We think we have it fixed, and a few months later -- back it comes! I put a new roof on my house about five years ago, but the leak is still there. I think it has something to do with several angles coming together on the front wall. We've put new flashing and more tar paper, but it just comes back (like a bad penny). Oh, well!
I just remembered that today's CCEE Stampers challenge was to use a technique requiring scoring. So it, too, will qualify for today's Love Fest challenge.
Used a CB zig zag and dotted embossing folder for my "scoring"- and added a gathered and sewn SU border. This toad and snail look like good buddies! Here's LOVEFEST2014G Toadily Happy

I had fun doing a grid style scored background, and added some embossing for my other layer. I thought this image was perfect for this season- here's Winter Skates - a cute stamp from Stamping Bella.

This is my most used craft tool, I rarely make a card without it. Even though I live in Australia where we use metric measurements, I have an imperial Scor-Pal as most tutorials are in imperial. I have a "mini" in a brand that shall not be mentioned, I used it once. The channels seemed too deep and sharp and the scorer actual tore through the paper.
Use a scoring accessory...if you don't have a Scor-Pal type I thought about using a bone folder inside an embossing folder!
thanks. somehow i missed that completely. must be getting tired. i have a Scor Buddy, i use it every single card but not always decoratively, but often enough i wouldn't want to be without it.

I am not sure why my information post did not show up. I wanted people to create a scored pattern on a piece of card stock. You choose the size. It does not have to be made into a card.
Hope you will enter.
Happy scoring,
Diana
