A Whimsical Valentines Day Mixed Media Project Succulents

Description
I used the kit from A Whimsical Adventure called Succulents, printed out a whole bunch of them, cut them out, layered and glued them together. I painted the wooden heart and hot glued the succulents to the heart. It took me longer to find my hot glue gun than to make this entire project. I threw out one hot glue gun as it no longer made heat. I have two more. My favorite is a Ryobi cordless. It gets much hotter than the plug in kinds. Third degree burns, so be super careful. Don't be me. Wear those little finger covers. I have them. Did I wear them? Nope.

I thought they were real, and tried to figure out what was by AWA... Had to come closer to see :) Superb! I love the heart with your 3d succulents. lovely work, hope your hands are ok
 
Love this! Those succulents are beautiful and your 3D versions are amazing! I hope your fingers are ok!
 
The clustering of the succulents is really beautiful done! What a great project!
 
@garrynkim Thank you so much. The blister went away, and I will not let that happen again. My own fault.
@zinzilah Thank you! Yes, blister burns hurt. I keep burn relief around called Second Skin. Works like magic.
@Annsofie Thank you, lots of cutting out of layers, I'm fine. I'm glad I cut out plenty of the succulents for other projects.
@ajm Thank you very much.
Second Skin burn relief. Have it on hand always because I am really good at being klutzy. Professional klutz. Olympic klutz.
