The Three Lives of Thomasina

I walked past the telly and heard the name Thomasina, and got one of those flash back, Black and White movie, a little girl late one night chasing her cat that leapt out the window...... does anyone remember this movie??
Apparently its not available here in Australia, I'd so love a copy......
its on Amazon, does anyone know about amazon??


One night, Thomasina runs off and doesn't return. Mary finds the cat hurt badly and brings Thomasina to her father, who promises to save her, even though he's in the midst of dramatic efforts to save a blind man's seeing eye dog. Like many others before, McDhui declares his daughter's cat a hopeless case, and has her put to sleep.







To say Mary takes the loss of her cat companion with difficulty is a great understatement. Though the youngsters of the neighborhood honor Thomasina with a proper ceremony complete with bagpipes and song, Mary feels all alone and she proclaims her father is dead.







Fed up with McDhui's readiness to put sick animals to sleep, Geordie's friends set out to put him out of business by passing along word of what he's done, even to his own daughter's pet. With his daughter not speaking to him and the neighborhood weary of his practice, Andrew McDhui is at a loss.








The Reverend Angus Peddie (Laurence Naismith), unable to comfort Mary, recommends that her father goes to see the 'witch' that folks are turning to in spite of his science-based veterinary. His hope, as is McDhui's, is that something can be done to make things right aga
in.

Rach's Tuesdays Challenge


Here it is!

This was so quick being 5 .5 x5.5

But I stuffed up a little as I'm not very good with instructions and I measure 5x5

hehehe

Sorry Rach

Rachael's Challenge Tuesdays at Divas


For this month Divas is celebrating Christmas in July.

To keep in this theme, our Challenge Tuesdays will be focusing on simple mini pages with a Christmas theme.


Rach is conducting this months FREE online class to tie in with the Challenge Tuesday pages by showing you how to create a simple faux paperbag album to place your completed challenge pages in, all in only a few easy steps.
Dont forget to drop by on the 22nd July 2007


The idea of Challenge Tuesdays is to complete a page without too much thinking and effort, so the CS and pp are the most important ingredients.

For this month Rach will be presenting a new Pagemaps sketch today as well as my example 5.5x5.5 page.


Rach will provide you with inspiration and motivation to get a few more pages into your albums, as well as exploring a few other tips, projects and techniques along the way.

Its all about enjoying the process!
