Silhouette

The idea this week on Make My Monday is to use a silhouette on the project so I've used one of my favourite silhouette stamps - the agapanthus from Stampendous which is a versatile image.  This time it was stamped once then repeated without reinking which gives some perspective.  Distress inks were dusted across the cut out shape (Stampin' Up label from Sizzix), then I simply added a sentiment and a couple of  stamped and punched butterflies (SU).  Background paper is from Prima, overstamped with the agapanthus.

  3. There's some lovely depth in this & the way you've used the colours so softly is very effective.
