Fall Leaves Joseph's Coat

This is a card made using the Joseph's Coat technique. I CASE'd it from a card I first saw on Stampin' Connection but I don't remember the ladies name. We actually made this at a workshop I held at Wildcat Pizza last night!

 I used the FRENCH FOLIAGE and TEENY TINY WISHES sets. You take whisper white cardstock and sponge on a variety of colors - make them bright. Then you stamp the leaf image using a versamark pad and emboss with clear powder. Ink up a brayer or sponge in espresso ink and cover the entire card several times. Wipe off the excess ink from the embossed image. It's such a striking result :)
Misc: primrose petal ribbon; oval, scallop oval and circle punch, little leaves diecut; designer buttons; melon mambo, espresso cardstock..
