Agapanthus Cards

I fell in love with the Stampendous Agapanthus Cluster stamp when I saw it and when I hit the web to buy it I was chuffed to find it in a cling version - yay!  What I didn't know at the time is that Stampendous also make a clear Agapanthus Thank You set - but of course, once I knew about it I just had to buy that too!

The first card I made is a Birthday RAK card using the Agapanthus Cluster stamp.  The card is a side opening A6 size made with SU! Baja Breeze CS.  I love Early Espresso with Baja Breeze and I used Whisper White as my neutral.  Before gluing the Espresso panel to the card I attached some narrow taffeta ribbon.  The sentiment was cut out with a Spellbinders Labels Trio die.  I rounded just the top right corners of the card.  The finishing touch to the card front was to add bling to the photo corner and the sentiment label.

Then I stamped the envelope flap and the inside of the card.

I've just sold some craft items on eBay and I always like to pop a thank you card in the package.  I used the Stampendous Agapanthus Thank You clear set to make these quick and simple cards.  I used the large flower plus the sentiment from the set for the cards and the double flower stem image for the front of the envelopes.  I made several of these, a few in each colour.
