I just had to make a card with that theme. OMG--the possibilities! With this one I colored the image using Spectrum Noirs. The sentiment I printed using Word (CK Oddball font). For the shaker I cut out the frame using 2 nested dies twice in yellow. I did this so I could glue the acetate to the frame then add another frame for greater depth. The candy balls (oh, yes, those really are Xmas sprinkles which are also conveniently the colors of the Mexican flag) needed just a touch more room than one layer would have given.
I originally tried music notes instead of paw prints but they seemed too busy and took your eye away from the image. The paw prints are more subtle and still convey a sense of movement. I swear it looks like that dog is going to have a heart attack!
The Details: Crafter's Companion cardstock, PTI yellow cardstock, Spectrum Noirs, Xmas candy sprinkles, MFT stitched squares dies, transparency film, Glossy Accents as glue, Darice embossing folder, my score board for the line
