Anniversary Wishes ... and cat!

I am worn out this morning ... this cat is taking over my life and keeping me from my sleep ... 
I thought it had found it's way back home on Monday evening ... but we had a big thunderstorm ... and it seems the cat was out in the rain crying ... my son came down at 2am to let her in and stayed with her till I appeared at 8am ... Now she won't go anywhere without us ... and can she cry ... 
I have had countless cats and kittens ... ask any stray and it knows my address ... but this one cries so loud and constantly if she isn't being amused ... I think she is only young ...  I need to check out the neighbours ... she must belong to someone ... but I suspect they have probably gone away being it is the school half term here ... and left 'kitty' for someone else to see too ... it wouldn't be the first time this has happened and I think this time I shall have words ... it is cruel (to me and the cat) and irresponsible ... and I'm getting too old to be up at 4am to soothe a crying 'baby' who just wants to play ...  

I do however have a card to share ... made for one of my friends who is celebrating her wedding anniversary


This is for Karen ... we met on our first day at high school and have remained friends ever since ...  A long time!  Made with papers from Prima's Botanical collection and a little scrap of Parisian Anthology from Pink Paislee (one of my most favourites) ...


Happy Anniversary Karen and Roy ...

And would you LOOK .......


It's 11:53 am and the cat has FINALLY gone to sleep!! 

(Note to self ... do not talk to any passing cats ... EVER again!!)

Till soon

Oh Ros, so sorry you're having cat issues. What a bother! However, it hasn't hurt your creativity, for this card is amazingly gorgeous!!! What fabulous soft colors!

Ros, You will always stop and talk to cats, as you are a kind and caring person. People do not know how cruel it is to leave a pet unattended when away or just leave. You have found a new one and I think it is quite wonderful it looks like the one at the top of the page!
Your card is beautiful, love the soft blue, the spray of pearls, and of course the stitching!

I hope you already got a few good nights of sleep again. The cat is a cutie but it's horrible if they keep you out of bed at night....
