Welcome everyone! Today I’m sharing a ton of ideas on how to use the new In The Abstract kit from Taylored Expressions. This reminds me very much of mixed media cards which I love looking at but have always felt intimidated by but with this new kit, I felt like a true artist! And it was so easy!
First let’s take a look at the kit.
Here’s everything included in the In the Abstract Kit – which is available for $72:
- Abstract Accents Stencil & Clear Stamp Combo set
- Bitty Blender Brushes – set of 2
- Subtle Sprigs die collection
- Clearly Crafty Beautiful Soul stamp set
- Bits & Pieces – Black Rhinestones
- 6 A2 Envelopes: 1 each of Toffee, Poppy Seed, Sweet Basil, Avocado, Salt Water Taffy, and Oreo
- Packaged in a zippered pouch with a custom kit label
Limited quantity available. Most items are not available to purchase individually.
Kit add-ons available to purchase separately: additional envelope seals (set of 10) and the Branch Out die collection.
VIDEO
I have a video that you can view down below or HERE on my Youtube channel where I’m showing you how to use the kit and some fun color combinations you can use.
I’ll admit, I went a little crazy and had a ton of fun doing it!
I provide full instructions in my video so below I will list the main supplies/colors used. Please refer to the video HERE for more details.

I would have never thought this kit was for me until I saw your cards and your video and then I had to order. I think it will be so much fun just playing with the stencils and my many (many) ink colors. Thanks for the inspiration.
