How to make paper succulent, free PDF and SVG template

Video tutorial to make paper succulent:
Step by step to make paper succulent:
Step 1: Cut the petals from my free templates.
There will be 7 layers to be cut. You could use your scissors and manually cut from PDF template file or use the SVG file for your Cricut.
Step 2: Color the edge of the petal with pastel chalk.
Actually, the real succulents have so many colors, so you could choose different cardstock color and pastel chalk to imitate or create your own style.
Step 3: Use a round stylus and your finger to curl the petals.
You could find this step in detail at 0:28′ of the video.
Step 4: Glue the 7 layers together.
The petals in the centers are close together, so please ensure that you will glue them together to help it be more realistic.
Step 5: Make the paper succulent vase from the template
Cut and glue the drinking straw (7cm) to the bottom of the succulent and insert it into the vase.

These look great and i would love to make them for my wedding. I tried using the file but it is not working with the cricut. It seems as though there is something wrong with the file. Is there anyway I can get the file sent to me please?
Hi Gloria, pls just ignore the font error notification in DS and the file works fine. Thank you.
Hi, these are gorgeous! I’m interested to put the in my wedding bouquet. I have a silhouette cutting machine, and neither the pdf or svg work for me to trace. Can you email me with a copy, with no watermark? Or a copy filled in black? TIA!
Which format are you asking about now, Jamie?
