Here is a Succulent & Floral wreath I created in January ~ as part of a promo held then ~ recreating this with current product & the newest Cricut cartridge is something I will be doing at a later date ~

For the roses I use White Card stock stamped all over in smoothie ink using a word stamp... then inked the edges in the same color using a Sponge dauber...

So in the meantime...

I had a lot of fun creating this card using FLOWERS ~ as I did not have any succulents with me while staying at my Dad's

(he had Open Heart Surgery and a bypass... and is doing FANTASTIC!)

Using the stamp set Hello Lovely (C1670) that also comes as a Thin cut bundle (Z3301) for those that do not enjoy fussy cutting...

I stamped the flower cluster in Bamboo ink (Z2803) & coloring with watercolor Pencils (3505) & using a blender pen to blend the colors.

Colonial white cards & envelope Value Pack (X1410).

Several papers from a couple different collections were used...

Rustic Home Fundamentals (Z3262)

Enchantment Fundamentals (Z3254)

Dreamin' Big Paper Packet (x7218B)

Shimmer Brush in GOLD (Z3316)

Bling is Sugar Rush Dots (Z3310)
