Multicolour stamping and old supplies

New month new Country View Challenge! My teamies and I have lots of inspiration for you on our theme, Mother's Day, hosted by Evelyn. (In the UK, it is celebrated in March) . 

I pulled out old supplies, loved but underused, for my card: 


The stamps are from Impression Obsession: Dress Form Trio (F13086) and Rose Print Background (F8867). I stamped the first with a Kaleidacolor inkpad (Sea breeze) and applied several colours of Memento ink to the second. I cut the stamped Rose Print in 2 and glued it into place behind the Dress forms. 
The sentiment is a printed label from a magazine to which I added a heart gem. 
The red die-cut is a Nellie Snellen border die and since this was very much de rigueur 10 years ago, I used my Corner Chomper for the focal image and its mat!

Well that was a trip down memory lane... Does this resonate with you, long time crafters?

  2. Loving the card but dare not say how many old stamps etc I have hardly used! I really need to get my mother's Day card made soon. Thanks for the comment over at mine. You said you have the product on your wish list and I presume you mean the Glad 'Press and Seal' now what's it worth for me to tell you where to get it Lol! Go on then......I buy it on Amazon. It is an American product but they sell it here in the UK but Amazon is the only place I've found it. Hope that is useful for you. Sending hugs, Angela xXx
