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.

    I am so excited about sharing this project on today's FB Live video!  

    In the photo below you'll see something that looks like a card…. but it's not!  

    It's actually a card folio that 'fits' cards inside.  Today is a sneak peek; I'll share details in the video today and more on tomorrow's blog post. 

    I've made one years ago and when my friend Susie Wood shared hers I had to make one too!  I chose to use the Good Feelings stamp set seen here.  It's on sale starting today with the Seasonal Sale.  It was $24 but is not $20.40.  

    In the folio I used the Contoured Scalloped dies for the frame, a few dies from the Penned Flower dies seen here.  They were $30 and are now $24. I also used the coordinating Hand-Penned Petal stamp set seen here.  They were $22 and are now $18.70. 

    My colors include Soft Succulent, Petal Pink, Evening Evergreen and Calypso Coral.  The pretty Designer Paper is the new Fitting Florets seen here; it's available through January 4th or while supplies last.  It's also part of my card kit to go seen here or the PDF tutorial here.

    Join me here at 11 am Central time on Facebook.  Or click here to see it on YouTube later.
