Gardening and Playing in Photoshop

My David Austin red rose was cut back a couple of months ago. Now it has about 6 nice buds, looking a little bit worse for the wear. Tomorrow we are to get some below freezing weather, so they are doomed.

I shot this blurred foreground and focus on the stone statue, thinking it would be the heart of the man of stone for upload to Flickr. Then I decided to play with layers to make the whole photo old stone with the stone man's heart showing.

We have heard nothing further from the Home Depot carpet department. I am just soooo angry with their incompetence. But that does nothing but hurt me, so ... I suppose when they find it they will be in touch??? GAWD!!
