Agapanthus Blocks

Photo Details

Poster: Loll Thompson

CASE'd one of my own cards from last summer ... used the same stamps and ink colors and just changed the layout. Makes for a totally different looking card.

Stamped the image twice over top of the En Francais Script stamped background. Divided the main panel into four equal blocks and sponged around the edge of each to highlight. Mounted onto my card front, adding a sentiment in the center and a butterfly in one corner.

I love that agapanthus stamp, and I sure love how you used it! It's such a nice layout. I'm thinking of how I can use it to make my Valentine cards! Thanks for the wonderful inspiration!

I love Agapanthus and I love the sponged blocks...such a nice effect! Your en francais stamping behind them is the perfect touch for this wonderful CAS card!

Oh Loll...so soft and pretty. I LOVE your stamped background and how you cut it then into quarters. Your sentiment and butterfly are the perfect embellishments. TFS

Another Loll card for my faves!! Love the way you laid it out and your sponging is perfect. Did you see Jakester's (Terese) two CASES of your Coneflowers En Fraqncais card? They're beautiful!!
