For this design I used the rosette-shaped "Echeveria". I am using both the rosettes and individual succulent leaves.
Add a small amount of glue to the base (wound) and set aside for a few seconds to allow the glue to become tacky (it will start to bubble). Glue each "flower" into place.
For a focus point I added a jet black bead.

The finish of every design should be flawless. Make sure there are no bits of glue visible in your design by carefully removing all traces of spills.
