Alpaca my Scarf

Have you seen the new release from Lawn Fawn? They have some of THE cutest sets and one of my favorites is Winter Alpaca. As soon as I saw the sentiment in the set I laughed, such a great play on words and honestly, an alpaca for winter or Christmas? Awesome! Even my husband got a kick out of it and he is hard to please when it comes to stamp sets!

This card was made for 2 challenges....the tic-tac-toe challenge at Jingle Belles and the sketch for Freshly Made Sketches. For the tic-tac-toe I did a diagonal row....stamping, die cuts and glitter. Its hard to see in the picture but all the small stars and circles surrounding the alpaca have Wink of Stella on them.

I won the Snowy Backdrop die during one of Lawn Fawn's inspiration weeks and I had fun trying it out for the first time. Look at the fabulous background it creates! You can do like I did and save the cut out pieces to use them for something else, here I used them to fill in the space around the alpaca on the patterned paper. They would also be great to use on a shaker card! The sentiment banner and alpaca are both popped up with dimensionals and the scarf on the alpaca is paper pieced.

Make sure to check out both challenge blogs, there is still time to play along!
