Simply Succulents. Simply Amazing!
Do you like to color in adult coloring books? If you do you won't want to miss this the Simply Succulent stamp set (154480 Pg. 35 AC) and Potted Succulent dies (154330 Pg. 165 AC).
I had so much fun I couldn't stop! I created 5 cards using different techniques, stamp sets, dies, colors, and DSP. I stamped three of the succulent "gardens" and then using my Stampin' Blends I colored them. I blended colors, and added a hint of some colors a lot of others . . . It was therapeutic! I don't know about some of you, but last week was one HARD week! Coloring helped me to get out of a funk! I also colored some of the pots in the stamp set and cut them out with the dies! I thought, Terracotta! So, I used the Cinnamon Cider dark and light blends and then with the color lifter I went over the pot again and got the aged look! I also did one in Just Jade and one in Smoky Slate which made it look like metal.

For this card I finally used my Blending Brush and created a background of sorts with Balmy Blue ink.
I cut my succulent "garden" out with the Potted Succulent dies (thank goodness. because that would have been a lot of fussy cutting). I paired it with the Just Jade pot, added a sentiment with Just Jade ink and die cut it with a die from the Potted Succulent set! I used Just Jade card stock for my base and Very Vanilla for my background piece.

For this card, I used some of the new In-Colors. I used the Fresh Freesia Light Stampin' Blend to color the tips of my 1st succulent, Soft Succulent Light Stampin' Blend to color the rest of of the succulent. I came in again and highlighted with the Just Jade Light Stampin' Blend!
My base is Soft Succulent, and the layers are Whisper White and Fresh Freesia. This is the pot I used the Smoky Slate Blender to create!
