Welcome to Jaihart (J♥) and the CookingWithCricut.com “Adopt A Shelter Pet” Blog Hop!
October is National Adopt a Shelter Dog Month, but we wanted to honor and celebrate all of our furry friends! If you've come from visiting Nita at Nita Notes, you're in the right place! p.s. She's from Canada and my husband was so excited when he found that out;) He has Canadian relatives! Also, she made the cutest teddy bear chef card for our #55 challenge (check it out)! If you've just happened across my blog and would like to hop along with us, you can go to CookingWithCricut.com and start at the beginning. Here is my Rhodesian Ridgeback, Leo! He's 5 years old and is the best dog ever! He is wonderful with my children and very protective of us. We love him very much!
Isn't this just hysterical! We had these taken when my son was 14 months! I just had to share it!
Here's the card I made in his honor:
IT'S a POP UP Card!
So fun!
This is my first one I've ever done, and I'm totally going to be making more!

I made this card for my Aunt whose scottie dog just passed away:( So sad. She loved him very much and I know she misses him! So here's the card I made to try to cheer her up.

Great job on both cards. I know your Aunt with appreciate the card. When we lost our cat Saturday Morning. We were heart broken and the card from the vet helped. We have 2 kitties now, since Saturday Morning is gone. We have Friday Night, who we got at the same time as Saturday. Then because Friday cried all the time with out Saturday, we got Prince Phillip.
ReplyDeleteJill, your dog is beautiful!! I love the pop up card you made. It is sweet. I want to make one. I haven't tried one yet. I love the picture of Leo and the card!! So funny. What a great card you made for your aunt. I am sure she will treasure it. I know how hard it is to lose a pet. My dogs are Chuck and Rocky. You can see Chuck on this hop.
