Agapanthus Clusters

Hi everyone, I’ve been a bit busy this past week, so today’s card is a fairly quick and simple one using one of my favourite old wooden stamps - Stampendous “Agapanthus Cluster”. Over August Bank holiday weekend I paid a little visit to the Crafter’s Companion shop as I was in the area, and I bought a couple of Spectrum Noir dye ink pads as I particularly liked the colours, so I wanted to have a play with them and thought they would coordinate well with this stamp.

I cut a 5” square of stamping card and blended dye ink up from the bottom left corner, then spattered with water. I repeat stamped the agapanthus cluster using Versafine Clair in Very Peri, and coloured the outline flower heads with Spectrum Noir sparkle pen. I added a stamped sentiment and some silver Posca spatters, then when dry matted onto a pink border and a 6” square card blank.

Here is an angled pic to show the silver and sparkle.

Stamps: Stampendous Agapanthus Cluster; Crafter’s Companion Magical Sentiments;
