Layered Thoughts

Today's card uses the Layered Thoughts stamp set with one of my favorite techniques . . . Joseph's Coat.


I have used this technique a ton in my stamping years.  You start with a piece of white cardstock and sponge or brush various colors all over it.  Once you have your paper covered you stamp your image with Versamark.  Be sure you are using a juicy Versamark pad.  As you can see, I did not get enough Versamark on my stamp for the top Happy Birthday, so my image is not as colorful as I would like.  Emboss with Clear Embossing Powder.  Once that is good and dry, drag a Memento Black juicy in pad over the cardstock.  Once your cardstock is nice and dark, use a paper towel to wipe it off and the black ink will resist where you stamped and emossed the images.


Yesterday was definitely a day of rest, but today I am on the go again.  I need to pick up prescriptions, go to Iowa City to get groceries, and then come home and clean off my kitchen table again.  That seems to be a never ending battle!!

Every day is a gift . . . make the most of the gift you have been given today!!

Happy Stamping!!
