Poor Thing!

    When we got up this morning everything seemed normal (define normal lol) and when my Son was being taken to school, Ross saw a shadow on the road that had never been there before and wondered what it was. When he looked up, there was this bat (flying fox) that had miscued landing on the power lines out the front of our house and it got electrocuted   :( 

Poor Thing!

    I rang the Wildlife & Native Trust Fund and they told me to ring the power company to come and remove it.

    ***Not sure if anyone is aware... but Bats are the only native Australian animal that carries a form of "Rabbi's" and should not be touched by anyone who is not an expert and they have been vaccinated against them.***

    I took some photos before they come to remove it and here it is   :(

I love bats and they fly around here every night. This was only a small one, some are larger than this. 

I would rather see them alive!!!

Christmas Lights at Our House

    I know this isn't anything to do with crafts as we know it, but it's still an art!  This is what Ross does to our house every year at Christmas, just so all the kids can come and see the Chrissy lights!  Each year he takes some out and adds some new ones ,just for all the kids to come and go Awwww  look at that!  :)

    Anyhow, here's just a few photos of our Chrissy lights..

Tilda is Visiting

    I have seen a lot of "Tilda" while blog-hopping. I just had to get her to try for myself. This is my first cards I've made using the Tilda stamps from  "Magnolia".

    This is Tilda and her dog Rufus                        
                                                               

                 

     Sorry this close up is blurry but it is hard to do close ups with my camera. Anyway, it is just to show the 3D affect i did to make them look like they are up off the card.

    Here's the second card I made with just Tilda on it.

The second photo might show the 3D affect a little better on this card.

I'll have to work on close up shots I think  :(
