Happy birthday to Sunny Studio Stamps! Wheeee! These little alpacas were so excited they decided to pile-on and get the whole gang together – ha! And as I look at it now – this could be a birthday OR a Christmas card, eh? Double duty!

Prismacolor pencils used:

Finishing the card meant adding strips of black behind the left and right sides, popping that whole panel on dimensional adhesive, then stamping “wishes” on the white, and “warm and cozy” on black with Versarmark then adding white embossing powder.

Just for fun, a more traditional Christmas colorway….but same design! Once you stamp something like this, you may want to scan it and save it to print again. (Use this only for yourself, you can’t share something like that without violating copyright.)

So cute, love alpacas
I love the alpaca tree & “minimalist” colors you chose for both cards! SO cute!!
I just love llamas and alpacas! This is a set I must have. Thanks for the lesson on masking.
What an adorable stack of alpacas! Lovely cards and so beautifully colored, as always.
Adorable cards! I love them in both color combinations!!!
Absolutely live this Alpaca Tree and it is very nice to see a different color scheme other than the traditional green and red as an option. Nicely done as always
My favorite new item is the Tag Die. Very Useful!
This is adorable. I think I need to make more piles of cute characters because I always enjoy your cards when you do that. I’m also always a fan of your colored pencil coloring. I particularly like how you used similar color families to shade instead of bringing in a bunch of grays. Thanks for always being willing to share you talents with us!
Adorable alpaca tree! I love both color schemes you used. I appreciate the tip to start with the packages, hats and scarves before coloring the alpacas. Both cards are very festive!
Oh my–love these piles of alpacas.
Adorable cards with
the darling Alpacas!
Too cute as a Christmas
tree.
