Hello, hello! Welcome to another Stamping Society Monthy tutorial. This month we are featuring our favorite Flower Bundle. Some might not consider succulents flower but I think they are beautiful and many flower so I am going with it!

What is Stamping Society? We are group of international stampers who showcase an idea monthly through a blog hop and then offer more exclusive ideas through a tutorial. The tutorial showcases 6 exclusive ideas along with instructions and a video. Details on how to get the tutorial at the end of this post.

Do you have a favorite or must have flower bundle from Stampin’ Up!? You certainly will after you see all the fantastic projects we are sharing.

SIMPLY SUCCULENTS - ‘THANKS’ CARD:

I love succulents! The real deal provide so much inspiration. We have quite a succulent garden going and so I gave my plants a quick peek to get inspired for colors on my card. Stampin’ Up! has so many great greens and the new Stampin’ Up! InColors add two more green shades (soft Succulent, Evening Evergreen) to the color line up. The new greens work perfectly with this stamp set.

Want to recreate this card?. A full list of supplies can be found at the end of this post. Please note that the new InColors/products are available beginning May 4th.
