Joseph's Coat Technique

For September one of our club projects was learning the "Joseph's Coat" technique.  It's been years since I tried this technique and found it lots of fun and the end results was a WOW!

I demonstrated how to do this technique with this card

Aren't those leaves just gorgeous?  

Here's a little tutorial on how to do Joseph's Coat

I used Very Vanilla card stock and the first thing I did was sponge three different colors all over the card stock.  I used a Stampin' Sponge and Cajun Craze, Crushed Curry and Old Olive.  

 

I then stamped the Vintage Leaves in VersaMark

 

You can just barely see the leaves stamped in VersaMark 

and then clear embossed them.

 The  next step is to use the brayer and Early Espresso ink and brayer over the entire piece.  

After brayering, I rubbed off the leaves and they just POPPED!

I cut the leaves out with the Leaflets Framelits and had a wonderful addition to my card

Since I had just driven over Mt. Hood and saw the beautiful leaves turning. this was the perfect card.
