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.

    Today I'm sharing two cards; one birthday and one Christmas.

    First is Tammi's card made with the Biggest Wish stamp set & the Pattern Party designer paper.  If you're wondering where this paper is from it's a Hostess choice.  You can get it as part of your free products with an order over $150.  That's when hostess benefits kick in.  

    Nov Tammi Biggest Wish Save

    She added a wrap of the Black glittered ribbon around her 4"X 5 1/4" card front which brings in the Black stamped images to coordinate.  Here DSP is 4" X 3".  

    Next up is Candy's pretty wreath card.  

    She used the Forever Fern stamp set to create a wreath stamping around a masked off circle in the center.  What a great way to use a stamp set that isn't even Christmas!  

    Nov Tammi Biggest Wish Save

    I believe her colors are Real Red, Garden Green & Blackberry Bliss.  The greeting is from the Merriest Moments.  The corner accents are from the Detailed Trio punch. I love her itty bitty bow!

    Here are two more cards made by my talented Flowerbugs! Both used the Expressions in Ink suite. 

    Candace made this first one using a nice piece of the beautiful Expressions in Ink specialty DSP.  She stamped her greeting and leaves directly onto the DSP using Evening Evergreen ink.  

    Nov Candace Artistry Save

    Then she stamped the large flower on a separate piece of White CS and die-cut it out using the Artistic Dies.  Lovely!

    Tracey made this one using just the Artistically Inked stamp set.  She stamped all of her images on the White CS and added that to a layer of textured White CS.  She used the Timber 3D embossing folder.  

    Nov Candace Artistry Save
    You can see she added a bit of sponging to the embossed layer to really bring out the texture.

  • What’s Cookin’ & All For Baby card ideas

    Today I'm sharing two cards made by sisters on my Flowerbugs Team.  They're so talented and I love to see what they make for our swaps.  

    First is an amazing card made by Jonna.  She used the What's Cookin' bundle seen here.  I LOVE her colors and how she created a tablecloth from the patterned paper by placing it on an angle.  

    Nov Jonna Save

    She stamped & die-cut the cooking elements and added it to the 'table'.  The White background is textured with the Tasteful Textile 3D embossing folder.  

    The greeting is stamped and punched out with the Everyday Label punch. It's neat how she used it vertically instead of the usual way. 

    Next is a sweet baby card made by Jacki featuring the All for Baby bundle seen here.  Her colors are Just Jade & Basic White.  The baby outfit is stamped in Just Jade ink and die-cut; then added with the hanger die-cut.  The designer paper is from our In color patterned paper packs – we have 6 sets of these in all of our color families. 

    Nov Jonna Save

    That little rhinestone on the hanger is a great addition. I love the simplicity of this card; it really showcases the outfit & greeting.
