Whodunnit??!

When I got up the other day and walked into the laundry, this is what I found.
Now, I know I didn't do it, so that leaves 'the other two'.  I always tell Bella & Romeo to keep their litter tray clean.  But I didn't mean clean it with my towels!
"Someone" had used the litter tray (it wasn't me)  in the night and then somehow dragged a towel from the laundry basket into the litter tray!!  Luckily the towel was not a clean one!
Well done who ever did it!  Now if I can just train them to actually do the laundry...
Thanks for dropping by, enjoy your day:-)

Fun With Romeo!

 Here's what we get up to when things get boring...I "train" Romeo to jump hurdles!!  Well, actually it's a rubbish sack! Honestlyy, he loves it!  I prop it up between the dining room & lounge room and  'encourage him to jump over the sack! 
He has great 'technique' and will willingly jump when I ask him to!
He gets rewarded with a few cat biscuits which are his fave! 
The other thing he loves to do is to have me blow bubbles with a bubble wand and then he jumps up and 'pops' them with his paws!  Bit hard to capture that on camera when I am the one blowing the bubbles and taking the photo's!  He is not happy when the bubble's land on him and pops as he gets a bit wet!

Skate Card

I really haven't done a lot of card making lately but I did make this the other day.  I thought of making a few to take to the rink with me & possibly sell some to the girls there.  I've had the ice skate stamp for awhile & have also used it to make roller skate cards.  I just chop of the blades and add a couple of big buttons for wheels!
I added some half pearls and a ribbon bow and also used some Dimensional Magic on the blades.  You can't really see it in this photo but it is there!  To round the corners of the card I used my Envelope Punch Board Maker as I find the corner rounder on that much better than my actual corner rounder punch!  The EPBM seems to be a much stronger punch.  Try it and let me know what y
 you think!
That's all for now, thanks for dropping by!

More Op Shop Buys

 The pink doily's and the roll of paper below both cost ten cents. There are 20 doily's.  The paper is a sort of ice blue colour and is iridescent and has feint lines running through it.

I Just Made This!

 These are photo's of a Vegetable Tart I made about an hour ago.  I went to an Op Shop yesterday and bought 6 recipe books for $1.
This was one of the recipes in one of the books.  I liked the sound of the recipe so decided to make it today.  It tastes YUMMY and I will definitely be making it again sometime!
It has a base of puff pastry with roast vegetables on top.
I know what's for dinner tonight!

I Passed!

Yippee! I passed my two NZISA tests at the Ice Rink yesterday!  We had to show we were proficient  ten various skills on the ice to pass.  
My next class starts next week and goes for four weeks.   
I stopped going to the roller skating rink about 8 weeks ago as it was way too far to travel and I was gone the entire day all for a 45 minute lesson on the rink.
The rink used to be an outdoor rink so is built on a slight slope.  I got to the point where I wasn't enjoying it and believe it or not, it was colder there than on the ice rink!  
I am enjoying it on the ice far more than I did on the roller skating rink and am doing much better. 
I  went roller skating for about 8 weeks and in that entire time only one person in the class actually spoke to me.  I found it a bit weird.
The ice rink is different.  Everyone speaks to everyone!  We laugh a lot & have a great time.  It feels more friendly.
Okay, I just had to share this bit of happy news with you!
Thanks for dropping in & I hope your week is going well!

Cat's n' Cards

 Above is "Bella" asleep in her bed.  She had her chin resting on the side & looked so comfy!
 This is "Ro-Ro" standing on his tail!  He does this all the time!  Maybe he's keeping his feet warm?  Does this mean I have to knit him some woolly slippers?!
 This is an update on the two wedding cards I made. (see earlier posts)  I stamped the wedding words on some card & used my SU tab punch to punch it out.
I made the horse shoes using my Nestability dies.  So easy!
Thanks fro visiting, enjoy your day!
