My 2nd card using the Gamsol aka Magic Coloured Pencil technique. My BIL is a real cat person so this is for his birthday.
Run dp thru CB using Happy Birthday EF and lightly sand embossing. Attach to navy blue square card. Cut piece of navy blue cs and scallop punch one side - attach to star dp and tie ribbon around it before attaching to card. Stamp Cat on watercolour paper using Stazon Jet Black and colour using Derwent Artists coloured pencils and Gamsol then adhere to dp and navy blue cs. Stamp image again and cut out just the balloon and colour in same way - attach on top of 1st balloon using 1mm mounts. Pierce holes around image. Add Kindyglitz Clear Sparkle to balloon and cheeks on cat. Mount onto card with 1mm mounts. Stamp sentiment onto white cs using Indigo ink pad, emboss with clear ep - punch out with circle punch. Layer onto scalloped circle of navy cs and mount onto card using 2mm mounts. Punch stars from dp using Carl CP1 Star punch and attach to card with silver brads.

That image is so cute - it looks like a Margaret Sherry design (is it do you know?). And the way you've laid out the card and embellished it really sets off the image perfectly.
