Joseph’s Coat Technique with a Copper Twist!

Joseph’s Coat Technique has been around forever and is a really fun technique!  However, since I love Copper embossing I wanted to add that for a Twist!

This card looks more like the Fall Foliage that I saw on my trip!  

Supplies used:

Falling for Leaves Stamp Set

Love What You Do Stamp Set

Crushed Curry card base 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″, scored and folded at 4 1/2″

Very Vanilla layer 4″ x 5 1/4″

Sponges

Ink Pads – Cherry Cobbler, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Early Espresso, Versamark

Embossing Buddy

Emboss Powder – Clear and Copper

1/4″ Copper Trim

 

Don’t you just love these colors!  Remember you can use any colors!  I do recommend only three for the sponging part unless you use sponge daubers to add your color.  The more ink you add the brighter your colors will be.  

On the video I stress to you the importance of letting all of the ink dry and I share what happens if you don’t.  This beautiful technique takes a little time but it is worth it.  I mention too that you should make several of these at once and have them on hand.  You can simply add the sentiment’s as you need them for any occasion!
