I can't stop playing with the CAS Mix Up Emboss Resist Challenge...I
I just had to try the Joseph's Coat EB Resist Technique.
Here are a couple of links to Joseph's Coat videos...
SCS photo technique and video and You Tube Video...SU Stampers Workshop.
My Joseph's Coat Emboss Resist card..
I love how our wonderful CAS Mix Up...Mixed Media Challenges make me inspired
to try new techniques! So many gorgeous samples of Emboss Resist Techniques
by our fabulous DT and talented followers:-)
I used glossy paper? A gift from a friend years ago:-)
Sponged the paper with Distress Oxide Inks in shades of yellow, red and green.
Dried with heat tool...Important Step!
Then added anti-static powder (Important too) and stamped SU Forever Fern image
using clear Versamark ink and heat embossed with clear embossing powder.
Then used a brayer to add Distress Black Soot ink until the image was
completely covered.
This was the Emboss Resist...just used a damp paper towel to wipe off the
black ink from the heat embossed multicolored leaf..Wow...so beautiful
how the sponged DOX inks show up on the leaf image and
heat embossed shine!
Next die cut the image with Memory Box Rectangle Stitched Die.
Added the stamped and heat embossed "hello" from the same SU set and sequins.
Found a scrap of Basic Grey Designer Paper for the background and
popped up the image with craft foam.
Added to SU Basic White card base and Done!
I was very pleased with the results.
You still have until the end of the day on the 24th to play along.
So happy to see all the gorgeous cards for our CMU Emboss Resist Challenge.
Love and Hugs,

ReplyDeleteThis is a beautiful example of Joseph's Coat technique, Nancy! You found the perfect paper to place it on too! A great challenge, my friend!
ReplyDeleteThis is just stunning. A clear explanation of the technique and a wonderful outcome. Thanks for sharing this.
ReplyDeleteThis is so unusual and creative. I love it. Thank you too for describing your process!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great result you got with this technique, Nancy! I love the vibrant colors of the leaves against the black background! You made a wonderful choice for the dp. The colors of the strips echo the colors of the leaves. I can imagine the pretty shine of the heat-embossed leaves. Thanks for your inspiration, my friend!
ReplyDeleteI never think to use solid images for the emboss resist but your leaves are fantastic, Nancy. You've inspired me to give it a try. You picked a great patterned paper for the background too.
ReplyDeleteNancy, it's absolutely perfect how your Stella Ruby paper picks up the ink colors in your leaf. This piece turned out amazing! You can even see the Joseph's Coat colors through the stitching! It's a fun technique and you can go a lot of different directions with it. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Leslie for inspiring me to try the Joseph's Coat technique...we have so much Fun!!! Love and hugs...Nancy
