Cinco de Mayo B-day

I know someone that has a birthday on Cinco de Mayo plus she loves my dog Nala bean. So with that in mind, I thought this would be a fun and cute birthday card for her. I just got the new Basic Grey packs in from Jacksonbelle Embellishments. They are both fabulous. The fun, bright colors were perfect for this card. They are from the Lime Rickey pad. My little "Nala" image was colored with Koh-i-noor pencils and OMS. I then paper pieced the hat on. I followed this wonderful layout that I found over on Amy's blog. I love those two panels in the back. Definitely going to save this sketch. Thanks for stopping by!

Stamps: Muchas Gracias (Inkadinkado), TAC GWP stamp
Paper: TAC white, Chocolate Chip, Basic Grey Lime Rickey
Ink: Palette Noir & Burnt Umber
Other: Koh-i-noor pencils, OMS, Jo-Ann ribbon, Basic Grey Eva brads, circle Nesties
