Instructions:

1. Create a 5" x 7" card from heavy white cardstock. Set aside.
2. Use Obsidian Black Amalgam Ink to ink the Cat and Bird Rubber Stamp and stamp it into the center of a piece of white cardstock.
3. Use Copic markers to color the cat and the magpie.
4. Use low-tack tape to secure one of the dies from the Bigz Tags Crea-Nest-Lies XXL 6 Die Set over the image panel.
5. Cut the image panel, flip it over with the die in place, and tape the die-cut to the surrounding panel.
6. Use the B60 and <B60 Copic markers to color the background up to the cutting die.
7. Remove the panel and use the colorless blender to remove any stray coloring on the border.
8. Use the White Gelly Roll Gel Pen to accentuate the highlights in the cat's eyes.
9. Use blue and black Starlight Glitter pens to add glitter dots to the magpie's crown.
10. Trim the length of the image panel die-cut.

13. Use the border die to cut Comodore Blue cardstock.
14. Adhere the Back Chat sticker to one of the borders cut by the border die.
15. Adhere the image panel die-cut to the matted patterned paper.
16. Adhere the sentiment/border die-cut across the base of the image panel die-cut.
