Coming down out of the freezing sky with its depths of light, like an angel, or a Buddha with wings, it was beautiful, and accurate, striking the snow and whatever was there with a force that left the imprint of the tips of its wings — five feet apart — and the grabbing thrust of its feet, and the indentation of what had been running through the white valleys of the snow — and then it rose, gracefully, and flew back to the frozen marshes to lurk there, like a little lighthouse, in the blue shadows — so I thought: maybe death isn’t darkness, after all, but so much light wrapping itself around us — as soft as feathers — that we are instantly weary of looking, and looking, and shut our eyes, not without amazement, and let ourselves be carried, as through the translucence of mica, to the river that is without the least dapple or shadow, that is nothing but light — scalding, aortal light — in which we are washed and washed out of our bones.

A Snowflakes Promise....Curious Cats


Todays card is a design team make for the great team over at A Snowflakes Promise. A new challenge has just begun and will run for the next fortnight. The theme is christmas or winter as always. We are so lucky to have been sponsored this challenge by the great team over at Sami Stamps


When I saw this image of the cats, there was no other choice for me...I loved it. As most of you cat owners will know..they like nothing better than a box to play in. I had a delivery the other day and the senders had filled all the space with torn paper. The cats were in heaven but the parlour looked as if it had been stirred with a stick..lol. I am still picking up scraps of paper days later..lol. In the middle of everything, I put all the spare cat blankets in to a box and the cats haven't let it alone since. Every time I happen to glance at this box...it has a different cat in it. Tankie and Nicademus seem to be taking it in turn.
Goodness me, sometimes I'm a pratt..lol. I've been sat here for half an hour thinking just how much pain I have today and I've realised that I haven't took my pills..so I'm off to take them now....I've just taken them..it's now going to take another half an hour for them to work. I can't believe I did that..lol I did think that I was turning into a moaning minnie.
And now to the kittens...the black and white one is now called the fiesty one. 3 of the kittens now have their eyes open and are all getting bigger every day. Flossie is being so good..it's so sweet to hear her talking to them. The black kitten is the loudest except when the little tabby gets stuck on his back...then he's like a turtle and can't get himself round..and then you should hear the row..lol
Well the coffee is calling and hopefully once my tablets kick in, I'll feel like a new woman. Sparkle has just arrived so caffeine is getting nearer..lol. So I hope that you will think about entering this new challenge over at a Snowflakes Promise...I have been lucky enough to see a lot of your cards and know how good they are..well worth an entry. So until next time...take care and happy crafting.
