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: 

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.

  • Pick of the Patch cards with Abundant Beauty masks & video


    I made these pretty fall cards on last week's Live video. I share a Live video on my Facebook page here each Tuesday at 11am CT. 

    I love the multi-colored background!

    I used three colors of ink and the Abundant Beauty Decorative Masks on the leafy background.  Garden Green, Pumpkin Pie and a bit of Wild Wheat.  

    I textured the Garden Green layer with the Basics 3D embossing folder (online Exclusive seen here).  The zig-zag is from the Basic Borders dies.  

    I used the same decorative mask to add some detail to the inside of the card too. Watch the video below to see my tips on multiple inks and masks.  

    I am so glad we have a Pumpkin builder punch in!  It has two sizes of pumpkins and a stem and leaf; all coordinates with the Pick of the Patch stamp set. These products go live for customers Wednesday, September 6th!

  • Autumn Leaves card with free project sheet; great layout for 6 X 6″ designer paper


    I created about 25 of these pretty cards for a recent online swap. We also made it at a Team Meeting in August.  

    My colors include Pretty Peacock, Pumpkin Pie, Lost Lagoon, Copper and Very Vanilla.  I used the new Autumn Leaves bundle from the upcoming Holiday Catalog.  It goes live for customers on September 6th.  

    You might wonder how I achieved the two tone leaf. I inked the leaf in Pumpkin Pie ink and rubbed off the edges a bit.  Then I added Pretty Peacock ink to the edges of the stamp with a sponge dauber, huffed and stamped.  

    Here's the inside:
