The Splendid Stems Dies are wonderful, and for today’s card they are succulents. Growing succulents in San Diego is so easily done, anyone can be known as having a “green thumb.” You can simply snip a piece of the plant, stick it in the ground, and with a little water, it grows. Amazing!

I cut the succulent from three colors of cardstock: Granny Apple Green, Pear Pizzazz, and Soft Succulent (LOL).

Potted Succulents

I planted the succulents in a gray pot, created with Basic White Cardstock and a Potted Succulents Die. The outline of the pot is from the Simply Succulents Stamp Set, stamped in VersaMark, and sprinkled with Clear Embossing Powder. Then, I used Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends for coloring, and placed it on Dimensionals.

The background is a Soft Succulent card base, layered with Splendid Day Designer Paper, cut with the largest Deckled Rectangles Die. This designer paper is special, half being foil. You can see the sheen in the last photo.

“Thank you” is from the Charming Sentiments Stamp Set, stamped in Soft Succulent Ink on Basic White Cardstock, cut with its Sentiment Silhouettes Die, and attached with Dimensionals.

For extra detail, I added some Faux Sea Glass Shapes.

I was inspired by the Paper Players.
