To start this card I picked out the patterned papers I wanted to use from the Birthday Time Paper Pad.  I die cut a piece of light blue cardstock using the large scalloped rectangle die from the A7 Frames and Banners Die Set.  I cut the blue patterned paper with the largest tag die from the Essential Tags Die Set.  I then cut the balloon patterned paper to 2 1/4 inches wide and used the large scalloped rectangle die again from the A7 Frames and Banners Die Set to cut the outside edges. 

I stamped this adorable image from Heartfelt Woofs and colored it using copic markers.  I cut it out using the largest scalloped frame die from the Heart Frames Die Set

Next, I cut out a piece of white cardstock for the sentiment using the stitched fishtail banner die from the Banner Trio Die Set.  I stamped the sentiment, which is from Heartfelt Woofs, in black pigment ink and clear heat embossed for some shine!

I assembled my card according to the sketch, adding a matching twine bow on the tag, and popping up the sentiment banner with foam tape for some dimension.
