I LOVE the Pet Shop cart! My DD is away at college studying to be a vet. I can think of so many ways to use this cart! My favorite pet at the moment is a black cat named Spook.

Debbie (from Sugar Land) said...

Congratulations Joan! My favorite pet has to be my cat - we had her for about 10 years.

Love Pet shop! My favorite pet is my little dachshund Duchess.

This looks like a great cart - it has a Boston Terrier! We have a 4 month old puppy that we've nicknamed "the Boston Terror". Tons of scrapping to come.

cindy4unc said...

OMG! Would LOVE to win this one! I've never been without a pet in my 44 years of life, so I would feel so guilty actually picking a favorite! Love them all! I am currently working on a scrapbook for my recently deceased Yorkie, and this would be perfect! I could use it for fundraising events for the local animal rescue I help with as well!

Cynthia B. said...

Looks like a great week planned! Our favorite pet actually doesn't live with us - she's Gracie, a sweet little pup that lives with my in-laws. My kids love her, and they love the fact that they don't have to clean up after her - they can just play with her and have fun. :)

Hannah said...

Congrats to the latest winner!

The pet shop cartridge looks adorable!!!! I'm already dreaming up what all one could do with such a cartridge!

JanD said...

I love the animal cartridge. We are big pet fans here. Right now we are down to one dog, 2 cats and a bird with more attitude than both cats put together. Those cats don't mess with the bird.

I am really enjoying reading all the posts and seeing all the cute things. Also a great way to explore cartridges one at a time, at a slow pace. Keep it up!

missstamper said...

My favorite pet was the cat I had in my 20's. He didn't even have a name, just called him kitty. As he got older we sometimes called him fat cat.

Larmabee said...

In general my favorite pet is fish. But throughout my life I have shared my home with many that I loved - Elvis the cockatoo, Comet the SPCA special, Shroom the barn cat and Sneakers the garter snake. There were lots of others that I didn't care so much for though!

CathyinMN said...

Congrats Joan! My favorite pet of all time was my dog that I had when I was a preteen, teen, and young adult. Her name was Princess (her mother's name was Queenie, so her name fitted her) and she was half Pomeranian and half Chihuahua. She looked like a long legged, long bodied Chihuahua. I loved her so much; she was my best friend. She slept with me, heard my deepest fears and confessions and hopes, went everywhere with me. I'll never forget her.

Colin said...

I have had so many pets over the years, from lizards, rodents, fish and also cats and dogs. I would be a horrible person if I didn't say my favorite pets right now are my two cats, Tiger and Toby.

Thanks for the opportunity,

Colin

Lara said...

My dd would flip over the Pet Shop cartridge! We have 5 doggies and are always looking for ways to incorporate them into our decor!

My current pet is STAR a miniature schnauzer is amazing. She is also a lot of fun. She has allergies and we are learning to give her allergy shots. She is smart and sometimes we think she is really training us.

Got2BCrafting said...

Oh I would LOVE to win the Pet Shop cartridge!! We love all of our little fur babies (and our water babies too!) If I pick a favorite... I will be in trouble. I LOVE them all equally. :)

I am also a big fan of Emma's stamps and her awesome DT... can't wait to see what they will be sharing.

macmomma said...

Love this cartridge! My favorite pet is my black lab, Jesse. She is THE best dog I have ever had. She has seizures and has to take medicine 2 times a day. I tell her to sit and open her mouth when it is time to take it. She does and I just toss them in and she swallows them. She loves playing ball, visiting with other dogs and playing with our 2 other dogs. She cannot play for more than 5 minutes because she gets too excited and has a seizure. I hate seeig such a wonderful dog go through this but the vet has assured us she is a happy dog.

Stephanie said...

Would love to win this one. My favorite pet is my late dog, Dixie. She was a miniature Schnauzer and she was creamy white. I had her over 14 years. I lost her last year and it still hurts. She stayed under my craft table when I was crafting. She was such a love.

Gina Chorma said...

I love this cartridge. My black cat, Ellie was so dear to me until she passed away this year. Her big brother Oliver; however loves being the center of attention now!

UnikeByYes said...

Congrats to Joann! How exciting that some of the DT members from MTC are guest designing here, thank you Joy and Melanie for all you do to inspire us and to help us improve our crafting skills. You take such very good care of us, you have spoiled us! ;)

Favorite pet was 1st dog my hubby & I adopted. Her name was Sasha. She was a mixed German Shepherd. She was very loving. As she got older like most German Shepherds do she developed Displacia in her hips and we had to put her down. I always said she was my 1st baby before I had my daughter.

jamme said...

My favorite pet was a stray cat that showed up at our door in January in MN. It was super cold out and I just had to let him in. Within two weeks he came to live with us full time. He continued to go out doors but always came back to us. We even took him on vacation with us. He was always so friendly and even visited our neighbor guy who was putting in a basement bathroom. Carl would show up at his window and watch him. We sure miss him after he died from cancer.

Cheryl Winget said...

The Pet Shop cart looks great! I can think of a LOT of uses for it. My favorite pet has to be my cat, Bailey. She's half Siamese and half Himalayan. She's beautiful and a lovely quiet companion.

Mama G said...

Those look adorable, I wish they had a Sheltie. We have one named Wallace & he's my shadow.

Rose said...

Picking one favorite pet is the hardest -- I've had many beloved fur babies over the years. I love that there is a German Shepherd, a Malamute, and a Rottie with a tail on this cart. My parents have a tailed Rottweiler, so this is great. :)

I can see all the fun I could have with this cart - Love to create things for my grandkids to do with me and they LOVE animals.

This cartridge is adorable. My favorite pet is our lovable Yellow Lab...she was born September 11th, the day the towers fell and Liberty is the name I chose for her. She is my first baby and she has loved and protected my kids from the day they were born. She even knew I was in labor before I did. She is truly our "best friend"..melissamp@verizon.net

I love the pets on the Pet Shop cartridge. My favorite and ever- so- easy pet was a fish in a vase with a peace lily . The fish loved to clean up the roots of the plant for food and the peace lily loved the fertilizer from the fish. It was a Betta that looked just like the one on the Pet Shop cartridge!

The Pet Shop is a must have for my collection. I got up in the middle of the night to catch up on my blog ready. When I returned to bed, both my cats were in my spot. Of course I took pictures. Now I need the Cricut Cartridge to help with the layout.

Wendy said...

My FIL has been ill and can no longer care for his rabbit, so we have inherited a large size rabbit named Alice! The kids love to feed her veggies! She nibbles away and jumps around when you come and visit her.

This is such perfect cartridge for our family...we love pets of all types. My oldest daughter who will be 10 this week wants to be a vet when she grows up. We have always had animals when I was growing up and I will always have animals. Throughout my years I would have to say my favorite pet was a gorgeous long hair cat I got for my 5th birthday...her name was Fluffy.

Sandy said...

All pets are favorites. Right now, I have a wonderful little girl dog named Billie. We found her in Mazatlan Mexico, pregnant and beaten. Although the beating took it's tool (she now has violent seizures), we got her through the delivery of 6 beautiful puppies and eventually adopted her to live with us on our sailboat. She is now 14 and struggling with many health issues, but she is still happy.

My favorite pet was my gray cat Drake. He would wrap himself around my head on my pillow at night to keep me warm and at times would knead my shoulders giving me a little message. He was truly a great cat and I miss him dearly.

I love the pet shop cart and can think of many things to create with it.
