Joseph's Coat with Wild Roses Background Stamp

WOW!!! This technique is mind blowing as it comes together.

It starts off not looking very good at all but then the final step is a real WOW moment. You can use a multitude of stamps but you are better off with a more solid background, but it does depend on the look you want. Just have a play and see what you like.

Here are some instructions for the actual technique, the rest is up to you 😀

Start off with your Basic White Cardstock cut to the size you want. Using sponge daubers you are going to randomly cover the Basic White with 3 colours of ink (I used 3, you can use more if you wish) There is no technique to this, you can have it as dark or as light as you wish, just make sure the whole piece has no white showing.

Allow this to dry or you can use a heat tool to speed up the process. Wipe over this with your embossing buddy to remove static and dry the last little bit. Then stamp randomly with versamark ink

(I used a whole background stamp "Wild Roses"). Once you are happy with the stamping you will sprinkle the whole card with clear embossing powder and set with a heat tool. You should be able to see it shiny where you have embossed. You are now going to use a darker colour (I used black memento not staz on) and wipe it over the whole card, only the background will pick up the ink, make sure you get good coverage. With a paper towel or tissue wipe over the card to remove the ink from where you have embossed.

Once you have wiped it the colours will really jump out, WOW!!!!!
