Quilling Succulents - Pattern and Tutorial

Quilling Succulents - Pattern and Tutorial


I'm so excited to show you my latest quilling pattern – a set of 3 potted succulents! There’s an angel wing, an aloe vera, and a barrel cactus.

I had a lot of fun making these because they’re so versatile. They can be used for birthdays, Valentine’s Day, a thank you note - whatever you want - because you can type any message on the front. My PDF files are electronically fillable, so customize it to make it personal to you.

On the back, you can type your name and proudly tell the world you quilled this. If you want to sell your finished quilling, go right ahead.


Quilling Succulents Pattern Tutorial - Measuring

As with all my patterns, you won’t need a ruler to measure. All you need to do is lay your quilling paper on top of my pattern, mark the folds, and cut to size.

After buying my pattern, you’ll receive a link to my full tutorial, and I’ll show you how to quill each design, step-by-step. The finished cards are 4.25” x 5.5”, so you can print 2 cards onto a letter-size sheet and have no wastage. After you finish quilling your card, protect it in a pillow box envelope, which again, you can customize with anyone’s name.
