JOSEPH'S COAT TECHNIQUE USING GORGEOUS LEAVES

 Hi stamping friends ! It"s been a few weeks since I last posted ! We moved house and had been in our old house 40 years so it was huge ! Happily we are setting in and the most important room in the house - my craft room of course - is all set up and I am loving it ! This is the very first time ever that I have had an actual craft room so you can imagine how that feels ! Friday night I returned to my Facebook Lives and couldn't wait to share wth what I had created . For this card I used the Joseph's coat technique as demonstrated in the video . I have not used this for quite a while so I thought some of my new stampers would like to see how this effect is achieved . I cased this card from Sandi McIvor , thank you Sandi .



Following on after that I had found an embossed piece of Basic White so I proceeded to 'wing it' for this next card . I hope you like it !



Here is the video and if you didn't take a screen shot I have given you the measurements I used here 
Card Base is 1/2 sheet of Au A4 scored in half @ 10.5 cm to give you a 14.85 x 10.5 base
BW 14.3 x 10 cm
        Just Jade 13.8 x 9.5 cm
BW 13.3 x 9 cm
BW 12.8 x 8.5 cm



Thanks so much for visiting my blog today and have a beautiful Sunday , the weather is quite nice here in Kerang , Victoria , Australia

DRY EMBOSSING WITH DIES


Hello stamping friends.  In last nights video I demonstrated how to use your dies to dry emboss . You may need to use a shim and , if wanting to use basic whiter your embossing you may also find you need to spritz it so that it will not crack .





If you'd like to see how I did this I have a video here
