Paper Tags Joseph’s Coat technique with video tutorial

I played with the Paper Tags stamp set and the Irresistible Designs Specialty Paper for last week's video.  Here's my favorite project: 

Joseph's Coat technique Save

The colors include Daffodil Delight, Coastal Cabana and Gorgeous Grape in inks.  The card stock is Black, White, Daffodil and Highland Heather. 

For the colored designer paper panel I started with a piece at 4" X 5" and blended the three inks on it diagonally. This Irresistible specialty paper seen here resists the ink where they printed the resist designs. Once you add ink, it reveals their pattern.  So cool!  

After I blended the colors on I randomly cut the single panel into 5 pieces on the diagonal. I share how I did this in the video here. I adhered each panel one at a time starting in the corner. You may need to trim one of the pieces slightly to fit the card base.

For the inside of the card I stamped the greeting and added color to it with coordinating Blends markers. 

Here's how you do the Joseph's Coat technique:

  1. Sponge or blend multiple colors onto your neutral cardstock. 
  2. Swipe the embossing buddy over this layer; tap off excess powder. 
  3. Ink the stamp image in Versamark ink; stamp onto the layer. 
  4. Immediately heat emboss with Black embossing powder. 

Once I had my tag, I trimmed it by hand (there are coordinating dies) and added a few extra pieces to lengthen the tag and add more layers. I finished it off with a bow.

  • Beautiful Fall card swaps!

    Look at these stunning swaps made by my Team.  Our theme for September's swap was autumn cards. 

    Annette created this first one using a innovative sponging technique

    I'm sure you cannot guess how she did this …..! 

    It features the Welcoming Woods stamp set seen here. She used a variety of colors like Highland Heather, Pumpkin Pie, Crushed Curry and Misty Moonlight.  

    Here's how she did it: She gathered up a sheet of plastic wrap and dabbed it in ink a few times.  Then she dabbed it horizontally across her stamped image piece.  With each color change, she re-rolled the plastic wrap & blended the previous one a bit to achieve a beautiful sunset look.

    She added some of the leaves from the stamp set to the inside as well.

  • Gorgeous Leaves paired with the Timber embossing folder

    Today I get to share two cards made by my talented Team members who used the beautiful Gorgeous Leaves bundle seen here.  I shared a bunch earlier this week as well. Click here to see them. 

    First is a beautiful card made by Marilyn.  Her colors include Crumb Cake, Cajun Craze, Old Olive & Crushed Curry.

    It's hard to see in this photo but after she stamped the background she ran it through the die-cutting machine with the Timber embossing folder.  

    Her die-cut leaves are darker than the normal hues since she sponged the corresponding color over each one.  Neat effect! 

    Measurements: 

    • Crumb Cake 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    • Cajun Craze 3 3/4" X 5" & Stitched So Sweetly die-cut 2 1/2" X 3 5/8"
    • Vanilla 3 1/2" X 4 3/4" & 2 1/8" X 3 1/4"

    Next is a lovely card made by Deloris. She also used the Timber embossing folder seen here. 

    She also added a strip of the Cork specialty paper.  This paper can be found in the Holiday catalog on page 55.  It sure adds a neat touch to autumn or men's cards!
