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.

  • Peaceful Nativity WOW card


    Look what happens when you combine a beautiful background with the Nativity Dies?!  

    Candace created this gorgeous card for our October Christmas cards swap with my Flowerbug's Team.  She is a master at sponging backgrounds.  I believe she used Pacific Point here.  She simply added a greeting (from For Unto Us set) embossed in Silver and the pretty scenic die-cuts in Black.

    I also joined a few online swaps with these products; here's one of my favorites!


    I chose to use two of the colors in the Classic Christmas 6" designer paper pack; Cherry Cobbler & Sahara Sand.  I cut 3/4" long strips and adhered them to a 5 1/4" X 4" piece of White CS.  Then I used the dotted, curvy die to cut about 4" down from the top.  Then I turned the die over to cut the other end and trimmed it to fit the card. 

    The greeting is from the Quite Curvy stamp set which is available in the bundle at 10% off.   


    Get it whole bundle and I'll send you a free Winter Snow embossing folder

  • Festive Corners Triangle Christmas Tree Card


    Look at this cool swap card Paula made using the Festive Corners stamp set seen here and the Stitched Triangle dies! 

    She used Pear Pizzazz, Real Red & Mossy Meadow card stock and the classic Heartwarming Hugs Designer Paper.  And she saved paper by cutting out the DSP triangles from her large designer paper layer (behind the White CS).  I love that!!

    Check out the Triangle Dies here and the Heartwarming Hugs DSP here. 

    I'll be sharing lots of my Team swaps this week; stay tuned!
