I am loving the succulents that I am seeing on Pinterest! I don't have the SU succulent stamp set and dies but I wanted to try and make them with other dies that I have. I have a number of flower dies and punches and was happy to use them for this. The succulents in the picture above are made with Tim Holtz's Tattered flower die and a couple of punches that I have. I alternated with some of the flowers and then used the same with others to change it up a little. I like the way they came out, although, not perfect like the ones from Stampin up. The little cactus-like one in the middle is just made with the extra-large circle punch from SU. I think I punched out 8 ovals to make the cactus. All the flowers are inked with Ranger's distressed inks. For the inks I used concord grape, forest moss and barn red. There are more pictures to show the side view. I love the little container that I used. I bought it at Michael's for only $5. What a deal!
