IMPRESSIONS ABLOOM
It was a toss-up between Impressions Abloom or Sunrise Sailing on which is my favorite new bundle right now! I went with the one that I’ve used the most! I also LOVE this Painted Stripes Background stamp but haven’t used it yet. With Memorial Day right around the corner, I made up a red, white and blue card using it!

Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Thick Basic White cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- The 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Basic White cardstock was stamped with the Painted Stripes Stamp using Poppy Parade Ink.
- The oval from Impressions Abloom Dies was cut from Misty Moonlight and embossed with the Eyelet Embossing Folder, then adhered to the front.
- Two large Impressions Abloom flowers were stamped off with Misty Moonlight ink, then the details with full Misty Moonlight Ink. The centers were stamped with Poppy Parade. They were cut with the outline and detail flower dies then added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The leaves were all cut from Lemon Lime Twist. The fan flowers from Basic White cardstock. All were assembled on the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Hello from Simply Said stamp set was stamped with Poppy Parade Ink on 1/2 x 1-1/2 Basic White, the ends cut at an angle. It was added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- A trio of Iridescent Faceted Gems were added to the background.
