Instructions:
- Stamp large Succulent flower with Memento Tuxedo Black onto Basic White Cardstock.
- Stamp flowerpot with Memento Tuxedo Black onto Basic White Cardstock.
- Stamp Sentiment with Misty Moonlight onto Seaside Spray Cardstock.
- Stamp small succulents randomly onto the 2 Seaside Spray strips with Misty Moonlight.
- Adhere the Seaside Spray strips to both flaps. Fill in flowers with Wink of Stella Glitter Brush.
- Stamp your sentiment with Misty Moonlight to top middle of the 5 -1/4” x 4” Basic White CS & adhere to the inside of card.
- Now glue down your flaps onto the Basic White.
- Let’s start blending. Starting with the main succulent – use Mint Macaron Light, color the whole flower, then come in with the Mint Macaron Dark & and mark the lines, then come back in with the light to blend. Then come Rich Razzleberry Dark & color all the borders. Take Purple Posy light & blend. Repeat process for each succulent using colors of choice listed above.
- Once all colored, add your Wink of Stella Glitter Brush to entire image.
- Using Crumb Cake light color the whole flowerpot. Now come in with the dark & mark all the lines as well shade both sides of pot but leave about ¼ ‘ then come back in with the light.
- Using the large succulent die, line up over stamped succulent image, the sentiment die centered over sentiment and pot die over stamped pot run all thru the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine at same time. This saves steps.
- Add Stampin’ Dimensionals to the flowerpot, the sentiment & only bottom of large succulent.
- Adhere the sentiment to the bottom middle of the Basic White (this is your stopper).
- Adhere the flowerpot and large succulent to the bottom front of the Misty Moonlight CS.
- Using a glue dot, adhere bow to flowerpot.
- Add Rhinestone Basic Jewels to both sides of the sentiment.
