I promised you a funny photo. This is 3yr old Evie sunbathing.

I call her Stuart's dog as she likes to play fetch with him, goes racing to the door when he comes home and is just very uncat like in her behaviour. She stayed like this for such a long time that I considered going and putting sunscreen on her tummy :D.

Well, I better be off to join in with LOTV'S challenge. See you again soon.

  1. Beautiful new baby card, cutest of images, gorgeous colours and design.
    Love the photo of Evie...my dog does this whenever the sun shines, we call her the basking shark as she's a rather large blue Dane...didn't know that cat's did it too! At least your cat has fur on her tum...Mathilda's is pink and bare!
    Thanks for playing along with our challenge at Sweet Stampin' this week.
