FUSION - Cake~ Happy Birthday to you, Stampin Up, Stuck on You, Lawn Fawn, Sweet Succulents, Whimsy Stamps.

I was so excited to make the card today.   You see I love plants.  

I have quite a few, however I didn't think I owned any succulents 

except for my little fake ones in the ceramic pot above.   

Well, much to my delighted surprise, I actually have some. 

I found this wonderful fb group and posted picture of a few plants 

of mine, and they helped me identify them.   The clipping in the 

picture is elephant bush, and I'm going to try and propagate it.  

I also have a kalanchoe, and a spring cactus.  

Now I have many spider plants,  African violets,

prayer plant, an orchid that is blooming right now

aloe and pothos.  I would share pictures, but I'd run out of room here.

I'm just delighted to also have a few succulents.  I even found out the names

of the two outside:  Sedum Neon, and Sempervivum know as Hen and chick.  

Now for the card.  I'm going to submit it to the challenge at:

Fusion

For the card today I chose to play with the photo side.   As you can 

see in the above picture that is the cake (I made)  stamped and colored.

Now I just needed to spruce it up with some cactus.  Btw- mentioning 

the word spruce made me think of trees, did you know that there is 

a succulent called miniature pine tree?  I'm going to add that to my wish list.

The stamp sets featured in this card are:

Stampin Up:  Happy Birthday To You

Lawn Fawn:  Stuck On You

Whimsy Stamps: Sweet Succulents 

After stamping each of the lovely succulents, it was 

coloring, cutting and then the crucial placing.  It was helpful 

to add the dimensionals to a few to give them room to squeeze in. 

I'm so happy with how it turned out.  My husband asked me, "are they made 

with the good frosting?"   He's so funny.    Speaking of funny I thought the below

picture was quite comical.  Hope you smile too.  

  Thank you for stopping by for a visit.

Keep Smiling and Keep Stamping
