Gorgeous Joseph’s Coat technique with free project sheet & video

Here’s another beautiful card made with the Joseph’s Coat technique. I shared it on last week’s Live video.  It’s so fun!

Save

My colors include Secret Sea, Timid Tiger and Darling Duckling.  The stamp set is called Artistic Leaves and can be seen here. 

Save

This technique involved adding color to White card stock and then heat embossing images in Clear powder over the colors.  Next rub a dark ink pad (Memento Black here).  The embossed images resist the black ink – it must be water-based ink!  

Watch the video below to see how it’s done.  It’s super fun and such a cool effect.  

I stamped the inside leaf with color by inking it in Timid Tiger ink and adding Secret Sea to the outer edges.  Then I stamped the coordinating stamp in Darling Duckling.

  Because we’re moving to Bismarck in July I will have just one card kit to go in June. I will be busy packing and moving so I’m cutting back on blog posts, videos and creating for a few weeks.

  This kit to go features the Inked Occasions Paper Pumpkin kit. Look how colorful and beautiful they are?! Of course I changed up the original kit to create these:

  Today I’m sharing the last two swaps from May; our theme was to use new Summer catalog products.

  This first card was made by Ginny. She cased a card made by Chelle Scott.

  She used the Fern & Flora bundle seen here. Who doesn’t love ferns!? Stampin’ Up! did an awesome job on these dies.
  The colors here are Mossy Meadow, Old Olive and Peaceful Pine.

  And look at that gorgeous embossing folder – called Fern & Flora 3D folder is stunning! See it here.

  Next is a pretty card made by Paula who featured the Valley in Bloom Designer Paper.

  Save

  It’s a book binding card fold. Start with a 11″ X 4 1/4″ card base; score at 4 1/4″ & 5 1/2″. Adhere the ‘binding’ area down.
  Her colors include Blackberry Bliss with Granny Apple Green. She added some of the new 2026-28 In Color butterflies too.

  This designer paper is simply stunning; it’s so soft and yet detailed at the same time. See it here.

  Here’s what she did on the inside. The dies are so pretty!
