joseph technique
 

hello..
What is the joseph technique. I would love to know how to do it? Thanks.

Here it is if my memory serves me correctly.
Use Glossy paper.
Brayer a rainbow pad over the whole piece of paper (I use a 1/4 sheet).
Emboss a stamped image randomly over the piece of glossy.
Emboss with clear.
Brayer over entire paper again with a dark color, like black or navy. Be aware, if you use SU! basic black, it is permanent and it will stain your roller.

HTH.

Karen,

Is this what you're looking for? I haven't tried it, in fact I just found this a couple days ago and saved it for future use.

SUPPLIES:
• White glossy card stock
• Rainbow dye ink pad
• Black or suitable dark dye ink pad
• Clear embossing ink
• Clear embossing powder
• Heat tool
• Soft cloth
• Anti-static bag
• Fluffy cosmetic brush
• Soft rubber brayer
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Brayer* rainbow ink onto white glossy card stock. Let dry completely. It could be left overnight also.
2. Gently pounce your anti-static bag over the brayered card stock. Brush off excess powder with a fluffy cosmetic brush.
3. Ink up your image with clear embossing ink and stamp onto the brayered card stock. Apply clear embossing powder, tap off excess, and heat with your heat tool. Let this cool completely.
4. Now brayer this piece using your brayer and the black dye ink pad, covering the entire piece. Let dry for at least 5 minutes.
5. Wipe off excess black ink with a soft cloth. The ink will not stick to the embossed parts. Buff the piece to bring out the shine.
6. Brayer again using the black dye ink pad. Let dry for at least another 5 minutes.
7. Wipe off excess black ink with a soft cloth and buff the piece again to bring out the shine.
8. Use as a background piece or layer onto a card.
* A quick brayer lesson. Ink up your soft rubber brayer going in one direction on the inkpad. To avoid the streaks you sometimes get on the card stock, try brayering the way I was taught. Start with your inked brayer off the edge of the card stock raised about an inch from it. Brayer across the entire piece and when you get to the end of the card stock lift up the brayer as you go off the end of the card stock. Immediately lower your brayer and roll backwards toward the start until you are off the paper again. Do this fast and repeatedly. I think of it as a rocking motion or an arc motion. Reink your brayer at least twice maybe more depending on how juicy your inkpad is.

I'm going to try it!
 

Thank you for sharing! :D
