Abstract Impressions!

I have been having some fun working with new products from the new Annual Stampin Up Catalog over the last month or more. You can see in the top picture a lot of my new projects. My Autumn Banner, a gift bag and matching card. Lots of cards. I have also made a fun little box with cards in it and am working on a Purse Stationary Box.

For this set of projects, I have used the Abstract Impressions Stamp set. This is a photopolymer three step stamp set. I love photopolymer stamps. They are so fun to work with. It really spoils me when I have to use a rubber stamp set.

I made the card on the right and the matching gift bag. Now I just need something fun to go in the gift bag! The card on the left I made into a Sympathy card. I found a card like this on Pinterest and it took me to Splitcoast Stampers. You can find the original card I found here .  It wasn't using Stampin Up products and the cross was just stamped on it in brown ink. So I thought of this set and the cross. The cross is from the Cross of Hope Framelits set. It is so pretty diecut in gold foil paper and then it is backed with Gorgeous Grape cardstock. I have used the new Gorgeous Grape ribbon on it. I just love this ribbon!

The card and the matching gift bag were designed by Connie Babbert . If you click on her name it will take you right to her blog. Sometimes I really try for my own designs but other times I see such awesome projects I just have to remake them!!

The card and gift bag are have the Tranquil Textures Designer Papers. They go so pretty with these colors. The colors are Highland Heather and Gorgeous Grape, also Mint Macaroon. I have added a little of my own twist to these two projects. I have used the Host set Very Vintage, adding the butterfly and the lace doily in the background.

I hope you have enjoyed these projects!
Happy Stamping!
