You can also use card stock, which is used for custom greeting cards, wedding invitations, etc. It comes in different colors, textures and sizes. Usually, you can find sets that come with several card stock pieces with their matching envelopes. This is a great option for a more professional look.

You can use your cat’s photo, a drawing, and any number of decorative items including ribbon, glitter, tassels, cotton, and much more.
