Once a year I pull out my very old Kaleidacolor Autumn Leaves ink pad that works just like it did the day I bought it over 15 years ago! Usually I brayer it onto glossy paper, but decided to try stamping the gorgeous Impression Obsession Collage Leaf 5 which I've had since 2013.
Beautiful card!!
ReplyDeleteHi Greta! This is a beauty! I am glad to hear that you have some of those old inks - I have a couple that I dig out every once in a while myself. The colors are gorgeous and the images themselves are lovely! The layout is one that I need to use again - gorgeous. Thank you for joining us at Retro Rubber!
ReplyDeletethis is so pretty, Greta - love those ombre colors on the leaves and the copper spritz is the perfect touch! after today i think mike riley will be heading back to oregon soon.
ReplyDeleteThe perfect stamp to team with your sentiment and I love that variagated colour you've achieved with the stamping. Beautiful work. TFS
ReplyDeleteAlways loved those inkpads but we just don't see them here in the UK anymore, love your stylish Autumnal leaves using it. Many thanks for joining us at Allsorts challenge this week.

Gorgeous card and fantastic use of the rainbow inkpad. I had a bunch of them and gave them away, probably should have hung on to them :) I hope you are doing well xx
ReplyDeleteps... thanks for the photo editing info :) much appreciated x
ReplyDeleteThis card is a beauty. It amazes me how long stamp pads last. I bought a set of pigment inks that look like little teardrops at least 18 years ago that are still bright and vibrant today. I also have those Kaleidacolor pads in different colors that I never think to use. I have a rainbow birthstone one and a pastel one that still have the plastic wrapper on them. That is shameful.
ReplyDeleteStunning card and love the quote.

ReplyDeleteOh, such a lovely fall card with the leaves, Greta! Love how you overlapped the leaf stamp in gorgeous colors! A wonderful sentiment, too!
ReplyDeleteThat collage stamp is a beauty and I like the variegated ink you've used. The glossy spritz was inspired and really makes that card! Thanks so much for joining us at Retro Rubber Challenge this week.
ReplyDeletethis is beyond gorgeous, greta!!! you totally rocked the IO challenge, my friend!!
ReplyDeleteYes, Greta, you worked perfectly your beautiful leaves. Your card is amazing. Kisses, my friend.
ReplyDeleteIt's so good to see the older stamps getting some love, and this card shows they can be as beautiful as ever. My two Kaleidacolor pads that I've had forever are still in perfect working order, too. Your spray looks fantastic. I'd never know it was vanilla card stock. I'm glad you shared this at Double D!
ReplyDeleteGreat use of your stash Greta. Such a beautiful effect on those leaves and great idea to give the card a little spray of bling x Gorgeous x

Oh goodness, are those leaves ever pretty! This is a stunning card!!
ReplyDeleteThese leaves look fabulous, especially in the different shades of fall color. I have only one Kaleidoscope pad, it might be the same one, come to think of it..., I really should use it more! Thanks for the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteI couldn't love this anymore its beautiful, the colours are just perfect xxx
ReplyDeleteWow Greta! What a gorgeous card! Never heard of that ink pad! How cool!
