I just fell in love with this stamp set as soon as I saw it! Those cute little animals stole my heart! I decided to use the Llama for this card because well......Llama!

These animals look to me like they were sleeping. Just like kids they are SO CUTE asleep. So I went with that theme and created a quilt look for my sleeping Llama. To do this I started by using my dry embossing tool to score lines for the quilt. Then I marked off the individual squares with Post-it notes and sponged some ink on one side of the square. This gives it some dimension and kind of makes it look puffy like a quilt would be. 

I colored the Llama and flowers with markers and fussy cut them out. Once the card front was put together I added some shimmer to the flowers and some sequins sprinkled around the card. The flowers are popped up on foam tape.

Because my Llama is white I only had to add a touch of grey outline.

You can see the shimmer in this photo.
