The dalmatian from the Cricut Create A Critter cartridge and was cut at 2-3/4" and the doghouse from Pop Up Neighborhood was cut at 4-1/2", two times so it was a thicker card front. Instead of welding the doghouse, I just used a sheet of white and folded it in half for the card part.
A tip: use a ruler to make your faux stitching - don't free hand it like I did.
It's just $5 when you spend $50+ at my Close to My Heart shopping page.

Cute card! My grandkids would love this card! I am really more of a cat person, too. We had both when my children were young, but I've only had a cat since they all grew to be adults. They are nice companions and not nearly so much work as a dog!
ReplyDeleteI'm mainly a dog person, but do like kitties!! Love your card and have used that puppy several times, but have never made a dog house before! Gonna have to do that! TFS!
ReplyDeleteCute card. I love dogs, especially my two little bulldogs.
ReplyDeleteI'm a doggie person what a cutie patootie card and I love that you used two cartridges. I love using multiple cartridge for my Layouts.......just adds to the fun of it all.
ReplyDeleteDog, dog, dog all the way! Kitties make me sneeze, but would love to have one if I could. Loved the card and have one of the cartridges, so I will be playing this afternoon. thanks!
ReplyDeleteLike the dog shaped card. I'm a dog person. Had to put my dog, Teddy, down May 2 and miss him a lot. Figuring on adopting another rescue dog in Sept/Oct timeframe. Funny thing is I just made a Cat card.

I am a doggie lady and I love your card! I want to make several to have on hand!
ReplyDeleteCat. We have two cats. Misty who is a black cat and Precious who is a calico cat, both female and rulers of the house! LOL
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute, cute dog house card! I like both cats and dogs and have had both in the past! Now I am down to two very spoiled kitties!
ReplyDeleteI love your cute dog card since I am a dog person.
ReplyDeleteCute card! I'm definitely a dog person ~ we have 5 dachshunds and a Yorkie! I'm allergic to cats. :o(
ReplyDeleteI am dog-less right now but I have three grand puppies that I adore. Sadie and Hans are staying with me this week while a big project is being done at their home. Getting my "dog fix" this week ♥
ReplyDeleteCute Card Joy - I like Beagles but I am more of a cat person - they are easier to take care! ;-)
ReplyDeletethanks for the chance to win the cute cricut cartridge.
Very nice as always!!!
ReplyDeleteI love cats. They are less make less noise and kinda take care of themselves. Love your card, though, I love all your creative ideas. You are the best. rosebud114
ReplyDeleteaww so cute, I have used that dog many times for a dog I dog walk and sit who is like a canine best friend for me, so I am very much a dog person, love them, they love you for who you are not what you have.
ReplyDeleteLove it! So cute! I am a cat person, but I also like, live with and love my dog. Shhhhh... actually I think I'm turning into the crazy cat lady. I had three and then hubby called when they found a 3 week old kitten at work, under the dumpster, to ask if I wanted it. Poor baby had several people who would have taken him in (he's sooo cute), but hubby called dibs and gave him to me instead. And yet the man claims to not like my cats and always acts annoyed with them, when they do cat silly things. I think he secretly loves them and just doesn't want to admit it. Why else would he willing add to my menagerie? I would never have known they found a kitten. LOL!
ReplyDeleteYour doggie is adorable!!! Super cute card.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful day,

Your card is doggone cute!!! I'm a dog person, and I think your little dog is darling! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteLove the card! And I'm definitely a dog person! I grew up with standard poodles and they are just such great dogs, I couldn't imagine any other type of pet.
ReplyDeleteThe card is so cute. I am mainly a dog person. Have one almost 10 years old. Thanks for thew chance to win.
ReplyDeleteCute card! I guess I'd have to say I am mostly a dog person....as long as they are a smaller, friendlier breed. Thanks for sharing your time, talents, and ideas with us.
ReplyDeleteCute card! We're dog people. We actually just adopted a dog this past month- she's a cutie too. :)
ReplyDeleteThat's adorable! Thanks for sharing. We've had dogs for 20+ years, so I guess that makes me a dog person!
ReplyDeleteI love your card! Create a Critter is one of my fave carts. I am more of a dog person. I like cats too, but I prefer them after they out grow the jerk head teenage phase (can you tell that is the current phase of our kitty LOL). We currently have 4 dogs and a cat.
ReplyDeleteSo stinking adorable!!! I am neither a cat or dog fan...allergic to both...and they are dirty! Sorry ;)
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute card. I love it.

Super cute card and fun cut.
ReplyDeleteI'm a dog person. Nothing against cats, it's just that my brother and I are both allergic.
ReplyDeleteI love your cute little dog house and doggie. He is adorable. The stitching is a fun detail.
I love to go and see the fireworks, my grandaughter used to be afraid of them, but thankfully she no longer is. It's a tradition that makes me proud to be an American.
ReplyDeleteCute card. I have some of those carts, so I can come up with something similar. I like both dogs and cats.
ReplyDeleteLove dogs and cats but given a join of either, dogs win! Thanks for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely cats!! Also, your faux stitching looks great. No ruler needed!
ReplyDeleteJoy, so glad to have found you! I look forward to your post everyday. Love dogs & cats equally - currently only have a grandcat & granddog!

I love both but if I had to pick one: cats. What an adorable card you made...love it...made me smile. I would love to win the holiday card cart. I send cards to older relatives and shut ins for most holidays. Thanks!

Dogs for sure. Love the card.
ReplyDeleteAdorable card. I was just playing with this cartridge today.
ReplyDeleteI like both cats and dogs.
Really cute card. I like both dogs and cats but tend to lean more to dogs. Dogs love you all the time, cats let you love them when they want. Jill P., Manteca, CA
ReplyDeleteHi! I have subscribed to your blog for a long time but haven't posted before. I was looking for creative ways to use my Cricut. Thank you for the dog card. I have a Cricut cartridge subscription and was thrilled when I found the Create a Critter cartridge. I just cut out my dog, finally, but still have trouble layering. I had to cut all my pieces from all the colors! But I will learn! I learned how to change sizes today. I am disappointed the Pop Up Neighborhood is not available on my subscription, but I will find a substitute. Did you use a Cricut Explore? I only have the Cricut Expression, and I had to make some finishing touches to the dog (eyes, mouth) to make him look polished. But I am happy with him. I had looked at this cartridge a lot before, but never really knew what to do with it. Now I think I will be happy cutting and creating lots of critters! Thank you for the idea!
ReplyDeleteCute the card. Love the puppy you used on it.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing

I like both, but I prefer dogs...although my cat acts like a dog! =)

Would love to win this cartridge so i have 1 for my cricut i rec'd as a gift from my fmily. TY!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute card!!!! Makes me think I need a new cartridge!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm a cat person, but only because they are so easy to care for! Dogs are a very close second!!
ReplyDeleteGood morning, Saw some of the CTMH stuff at the Scrapbook Expo in San Diego over the weekend. This 4th of July we have 2 days off, Thursday and Friday, so I am hoping to get into my craft room and clean it up so it makes more sense...hubby will be thrilled...Hope everyone has a safe and Happy 4th July weekend...
ReplyDeleteCat person, but I must say that this card is still adorable regardless of my preference. Thank you for once again reminding me why Create A Critter carts are my favorite ones!
ReplyDeleteI love both dogs and cats but I do favor dogs. I haae done rescue for years with both. I am always pinning dog themed cards to make for my friends BD and other Holidays. Create a Critter is definitely a favorite and I also live Paper Pups, Four Legged Friends, and Pet Shop.
