As per usual, there are more adorable dies for your gnome collection, and I couldn't wait to dress up the original Gnome Dies with one of the mustaches and the cowboy boots from the previously released Gnome Dies: Cowboy Add Ons, then finish him off with the sombrero and a margarita glass from the Gnome Dies: Cinco de Mayo Add Ons set.
I colored his beard and body parts with Copic markers, then pieced him together. I don't drink much, but I do really like an occasional margarita with a salted rim, so was excited to see the margarita glass, complete with a lime wedge included in the set. I Copic colored the base piece instead of adding all the layers, then just pieced on the lime. The salted rim was achieved by adding a little liquid glue to the top of the glass, then sprinkling with chunky glass glitter. Once it was adhered and dry, I went over the glitter with a white Pasco paint marker. I love the effect!
The background was a cleanup smooshing from a stenciling session. I loved how the colors tied in with the margarita, so cut it out with the Card Mat Dies. I finished with one of the sentiments from Cinco de Gnomo, cut with the coordinating outline dies.

What a cutie this gnome is Julee - love it, and how you coloured him. The 'salted' rim is brilliant. Your background is fabulous also
