Uniko May Release - Introducing Happy Succulents

Hello,

I am back again with the next set in the fab May release from Uniko.  Succulents are very on trend at the moment and this gorgeous stamp set offers lots of possibilities!  I made several cards with these lovely images:

 
With some masking, I created a cluster of succulents to put in my earthenware bowl which was made from a circle die cut in half from kraft cardstock and coloured with watercolour pencils.  The succulents are coloured in pencils - I love the minty and silver greens that succulents come in!

 
On this card I used the fabulous succulent image in both the top and bottom corners and coloured with pencils.  The sentiment is from the same set - don't you just love that font?!

 
I decided to use the succulent images in different colours as they could equally be florals.  I made this card in the Uniko colours by clustering the succulents around a circle cut aperture.
 
This is a great set in Uniko's trademark style and you can see lots more ideas from the talented DT:
 

The release will be available for sale on 6 May and I am back tomorrow to introduce another set.  Not long to wait now :)

Thanks for stopping by,

Sarah x

    Another superb idea with the pot of succulents, clever! Love the fresh greens on the second and the pinks on the final card are so pretty.

    Whether in a cluster in a bowl, or arranged to frame a sentiment, or nestled on the side of a frame, your succulent showcases are sensational! This set, like the two yesterday, are filled with possibilities. I'm totally smitten!

    You are just too clever with these sets! I'm in awe at the pot you've created. Totally realistic and naturally coloured succulents too. Love the design of the other 2 and great to see you've added some vibrant colours too. x

    You're amazing with your wonderful cards and clever ideas ! Love your pot of succulents, it seems so real ! Your second card is just stunning, all this greenery is so fresh and so elegant with just a little touch of purple ! Gorgeous third card too, with a nice allusion to the colors of Uniko! Thanks for sharing and for inspiring.

    Fabulous masking on the succulents, Sarah, and the coloring on the bowl makes it look real. I love the touch of purple on those on the second card and using them as florals shows how versatile the set is.
