I started by stamping Guitar Cat {E-7438} in Ancient Page Charcoal Black ink on White Conqueror card stock and punching out with my Marvy Super Jumbo circle punch. I then colored in with prismacolors and mineral spirits and added some doodles around the edges. I matted the image on a piece of Real Red cardstock cut with my Creative Memories Cutting System and then on a Tempting Turquoise Marvy Mega Scalloped Circle Punch. I pierced holes in each scallope with a paper piercer and then added Xmas Red and Turquoise Stickles to the image.
Next I cut three strips from the Karen Foster designer paper and adhered to a Tempting Turquoise card base. I used my horizontal slot punch to punch the slightest sliver of a hole in the folded edge of the card to slide my ribbon through and tie a bow. I then mounted the cat image panel on pop dots in the bottom center of the card and started on the sentiment.
I stamped Cinco de Mayo {D-7430} with Ancient Page Charcoal Black and then cut the trapezoid shape out freehand and matted on Tempting Turquoise. I doodled a border around and then added some random Turquoise and Xmas Red Stickles to look like confetti.
