,We are so excited about today's project!  Succulents! Yes, you heard us right we said succulents! We all know that they are one of the latest trends. You see them everywhere now. And believe us when we tell you that they are also one of the hottest trends for wedding decor! Madge's daughter recently married, and we created these fun succulent centerpieces for the wedding celebration that will be happening next week. 
Cricut has made it easy, so easy in fact that there is a "Make it Now" project in Cricut Design space that we used and tweaked it just a little to make it into this fabulous Succulent Centerpiece.

You are only going to need a few items.
*Cricut Cardstock (in the colors of your choice)
*Cricut Explore Air 2 Machine
*Cricut Faux Leather
*Cricut Scoring Stylus
*Adhesive
*Distress ink (brown or purple)
*wooden box
*optional- rocks and moss
 
Below it the "HOW TO" video.  In this video Madge shows you how to create this project in Cricut Design Space and Midge shows you how to put the project together! 
What are you waiting for?  Go grab your favorite beverage, kick up your feet and watch this fun tutorial!
Here is the "Make it Now" Link

You can see in these two photos how much of a difference that using a little ink around the tips of the succulents adds.  Remember if you take the time to add the little things, your projects will come to life! Looking like real succulents.
