Hello friends! Welcome to the Simply Succulents Stamp Review Crew Hop.
I adore this stamp set as much as I love succulents. And I love succulents so much I recently subscribed to a mystery succulent box that will send you three new plants every month. Thats a lot of love and succulents!
These cards might be called “kitchen sink” cards. I have basically thrown every product sitting on my desk at them. Since we are at the end of the catalog cycle I figure it’s fair game to use up all my products.
Both of my featured cards incorporate the Flowering Cactus Product Medley (refill). I found the papers in the medley coordinate so well with this stamp set.
This first THANKS card is all about PURPLE POSY. I’m giving this retiring InColor a last bit of love. The Flowering Cactus paper dictated the color scheme and I went with it. The mesh die cut in the background is trimmed from the Forever Gold Laser-Cuts (I used the white backside).
My second card used features this darling ALOE plant. I created this plant by cutting two aloe plants from Just Jade cardstock. I flipped one image over and arranged the two together in the pot. I added little highlights with a white gel pen.
On both cards the pot has been stamped in Cinnamon Cider ink on Fluid 100 watercolor paper and then watercolored.
Now … i told you I love this bundle. At the end of this post are more card creations. FYI - Simply Succulents is sticking around for another year so if it’s not in your arsenal yet you still have time.
