Have you ever done the Joseph’s Coat technique? It’s one of those techniques that makes you feel like an artist.
I shared how to do it on last week’s Live video. The card I’m featuring today uses the Layering Thoughts technique with three of our newest In Colors – Strawberry Slush, Darling Duckling and Timid Tiger.
These colors – card stock, ink, refills, gems, markers and card stock are all 15% off in August. See these products and so much more here. It’s a great time to grab these items while discounted.
This technique involves a few steps:
- sponge colors over your neutral card stock – I used White.
- Tap or rub the embossing buddy over the layer.
- Stamp your images using Versamark ink.
- Heat emboss with Clear embossing powder and your heat tool. Let dry.
- Rub a dark ink (memento black here) over the entire layer. The embossed areas will resist the water based ink.
- Dab off excess ink with a tissue or paper towel. Done!
Here’s how I finished the inside. I wanted to use all of the colors I colored on the front so I used my Stampin’ Write markers on the stamp before stamping.
