Hickory Dickory Dock - It's Nursery Rhyme Time!

jsch_hickerydock_prepart1

Hi all, I hope that things are going well in your world and that life is being kind. I'm late today in posting

A little while ago I spoke of Nursery Rhyme things and I finally decided to work on some of my ideas.

Today starts the Nursery Rhyme Theme, it starts with Hickory Dickory Dock...remember that one...with the mouse running up the clock? My kids loved it and it was a firm favourite with them. Today it's just two papers to start you off, but there is word art and some elements to come based on this nursery rhyme so watch out for the rest!

At the  moment my cat is having a strut!!!! And don't we all know it!!! Whilst we were away my son was in charge (well that was the theory) but I'm afraid it was the cat that was really the boss! He spent the whole of the time begging and bullying for ham and titbits from the fridge and my son gave in every time...grrr!!

Now the cat is far from happy..."What!! You expect me to eat THAT!!!" is his theme...it is written all over his face, when he gets no joy he sticks his nose in the air and struts off...but then he comes back..and that's the bad bit!! Be afraid, be very afraid when he comes back!!

If the first tactic doesn't work, then he has taken to coming back and looking hurt..before he nips us on the leg! I ask you..where does that come from..he hasn't learnt it from me. I never nip, even when I don't get my own way!! I think there must be something that my DH isn't telling me...perhaps it's him the cat got it from, lol!

So it's tough love I'm afraid for the next few days or we will end up living with a feral moggy and that is not on!!

Back to sensible stuff now.

If you'd like today's Part 1 of Hickory Dickory Dock you can download it here

Before I go I have an other card from Su and again it's a beauty!! I love the Sweet memories tag on it! Birthdays are for memories...well they are if you've had as many as I've had, lol!! Thank you Su for sharing it,it's gorgeous!
