My card began by stencilling a music background in black on Bristol Smooth and then I stencilled a scrap strip in coral. I adhered thin strips in black and mint along the edge of the coral, cut from scraps. I coloured the candy cane kitty with markers, fussy-cut, and adhered to a mini doily with foam tape. I heat-embossed a sentiment in white on a black scrap and die-cut two tiny hearts from scraps.
