It’s WOW Mystery Stamping time!! What’s that? Well, it’s a little stamping game, something my WOW Club and Team Members had some fun with this week. I have to admit, I spoiled everyone just a little. I cut their kits and sent them off for delivery. Then we solved the WOW Mystery Stamping together.
Would you like to play? I’ve got all the clues listed below. Here are the measurements and supplies you’ll need to play along.
To get things started, we need to gather our stamping goodness. If you don’t have the leaf set I used, no worries. Just chose any set you have with various leaf images, in different sizes. Some suggestions on a leaf set would be Rooted in Nature or you could give Love of Leaves a try. For the sentiment on the card, I used the Beautiful Autumn set. Don’t have that one? Just chose a sentiment that will fit on a 1/2″ x 4″ strip.

Ready to solve the mystery? Follow the clues for some stamping fun.
Here’s what mine looked like. You might be thinking, Susan, that looks like a hot mess. Trust me, it’s going to be beautiful! I promise.
Because we added that layer of clear embossing, you’ve got more of an embellishment that makes a statement on your card. Set those aside and let them cool.
Which sentiment did you choose? Did you need a birthday, thinking of you or just because card? Here’s mine, I think I could send this card along to so many of those on my list.
It’s a little tough to see your pattern at this point, but believe me it’s there. Double check to be sure all your embossing powder is melted and shiny. If you inspect it under a light, that would be helpful.
Here’s a closeup of how mine turned out. The gorgeous Joseph’s Coat is a fabulous technique. You can use lots of color combinations, but this one is so rich and Fall inspired. I love how it turned out.
You’ve all beeen such good stamping detectives. Ready to put it all together and solve this little mystery?
What could be better? It’s simple, elegant and fun. Now that you know how to create the Joseph’s Coat Techique, I hope you use it in future projects. You could chose stamps from multiple sets and make a very unique design. I even filmed a tutorial for you to follow along if you like.
Was that fun? I sure hope so. I know I had a blast with both my Zoom classes. Until next time, Create Something Beautiful!
You did a wonderful stamping. The colors were spot on. Loved the whole card.
Thank you Andrea, so happy that you enjoyed it!
