How did you know that I was on the hunt for some succulent SVG’s? Your timing is impeccable and honestly these are the prettiest patterns I’ve found in all of my searching. Thank you so much for providing these for free. It’s a very generous gift and I appreciate it.
Glad I could help! Thanks for watching!😊🌻
Hello Jennifer! I just want to genuinely thank you for your videos. They are informative and super inspirational to us. We have only been checking out your videos for a week, they have helped us decide what machine to purchase. We feel confident about our purchase and you have given a fantastic scope of what to expect, ensuring a good start into our creating adventure. Thank you again for sharing information that is invaluable! Cheers.
Thank you so much! I'm so glad to hear this! 😃💜
Absolutely gorgeous! I loved how the inks and pan pastels take them to the next level!
Thank you so much! Yes I love that too! 💕
These are absolutely gorgeous! Someone needs to make a paper succulent bouquet for their wedding, that would look awesome!
That would look awesome! 😃
I am making these as decor for my succulent themed wedding! So excited!
I can’t get over how realistic they are! These succulents are so adorable, I’m obsessed!
I love them too! Thanks for watching! 🧡🌻
I’m so glad I came across your videos! You explain and break down all the details and make things look easy and I just want to start my projects! These succulents look perfect! Thank You 💝
Awesome! Thank you!💗
You are AMAZING! I love how you gave us the name of each one and you designed each one to be just like the real ones. ❤️
I'm so glad you like it, Thank You!💗
I love these, I'm not sure my skills are up to the task as yet, but with your help I'm working toward it. Thank you so much for all your tutorials and classes!
You are so very welcome! You can totally do this, you just need to carve out the time as it is not a quick project! 💗
Jennifer, these are beautiful. Your teaching really inspires confidence. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much! 💗
I can’t believe how real these beautiful flowers look!
Thank you so much 😊
These will be perfect for my mom! She kills every plant I give her. LOL I love how you shade and highlight the petals to make them more realistic, they are beautiful! Thank you so much for all of your ideas and most especially your fantastic teaching skills! You are my Go To for all things Cricut!! I tell everyone to go to your website and TH-cam channel. We All Appreciate It!
Thank you so much! It warms my heart to hear this. 😊💜
Beautiful! Thanks for the tutorial and all of the detailed information.
I'm obsessed with craft paper. Can't wait to make these lovely paper succulents and have my elementary school kids try them. Thanks for sharing your gifts. Bless you.
Wonderful! Thanks for watching!😊🌻
I've never made anything like this, but now I'm definitely interested in trying! You make everything look so simple and perfect. Thank you for everything you do for us!
Thank you so much, I'm so happy you find my videos helpful! 💗
I watched your live version last week and fell in love with the idea. Today I begin!
Yay! Have so much fun creating!💗
I just finished my succulent tray for my office cubicle! Jennifer, this is my first intensive cricut project and I'm pretty excited at how cool it turned out. I had to laugh at the end of the video when you say they are maintenance free and you can't kill them--this is EXACTLY why I wanted to create this for my office space. Our receptionist has given me two live plants that have both died. This tray is going in their spot!
This is too funny!
Love watching your tutorials! You explain everything in such great detail making it possible to craft the stuff we love! Thank you!!
Thanks so much 😊💗
Those are pretty! Awesome job! I can’t wait to try to make them. Thanks for showing & teaching us.
You are so welcome! 💗
These are gorgeous - so real looking. Thanks for sharing how to create and display these.
You are so welcome! 😃
woooow this seems so much easier than trying to keep the real thing alive x.x
Doesn't it though?
I can't wait to make these as a gift for my younger sister. She collects these little plants, and now that she's graduated from her medical school training she'll be busy with work. It'll be nice for her to have these and not have to worry about actually taking care of them. Thanks for all your help and awesome ideas! 😊✂️📏
You are so welcome! 😃
You're a wonderful sister! I'm so happy you're here crafting with us! 🧡🌻
I love that they do not require much care! Perfect!
Yes, exactly!💗
Love these succulents. I especially appreciate that you show us exactly how to enhance the color for a realistic looking succulent. in my opinion, you are the BEST craft teacher I've on UTube because you walk us through every single step.
Oh wow, thank you so very much! I'm glad you find my tutorials so helpful! 💗
I was so happy to see this, Jennifer, and can't wait to make some. I have been looking for "fake" succulents lately because, yes, no care! Won't die! These are much more realistic than any others I have found...and those are more expensive than I want to pay. So... will be making these for sure! Thank you!
Yay, I hope you do!!!💗
You are wonderful! Just started following you last week and I’m pretty sure I’ve just binged watched all your videos in a day 😆❤️
Wow, thank you! Thanks for watching!😊🌻
Love watching these tutorials. I have learned so much from her.
Awesome! Thank you!💗
Absolutely gorgeous. The succulents look so real and since I don't have a green thumb, something I need.
Thank you! These never need watering. 😁💜
Love this project and the Zen feel.
So glad you enjoyed it!💗
I've been looking for something like this for such a long time. I gave up on my vision but this video has inspired me to try again. Thank you so much for such a clear video!
Oh I'm so glad! You are very welcome! 💕
Love your tutorials. I'm learning a lot, and it's not so hard with your help.
I'm so happy to hear!💗
I've made a couple of succulents for my wife so she could put them into a display at the library where she works. So glad to have such a variety now!
That is so great! 💕
