peaceful alpaca (Lawn Fawn inspiration week)

Hi there!

Lawn Fawn inspiration week is winding down, with a close look at the new Small Stitched Envelope die.

I wanted to create a card that would hide the envelope in plain sight:

It's a card and gift all in one! I created a whole scene on the card base as well as on the envelope front, and had them line up seamlessly (if parts don't look seamless in the photo, it's just the angle!)

I placed the Winter Alpaca onto the envelope, adhering him only to the top of the envelope. When the string is untied, it reveals the gift card inside:

Ta da! (Sidebar: I found that Starbucks card from last year. woo hoo! Free fancy coffee for me this week!)
