Welcome to our weekly Colour Creations Blog Hop. This week we are looking at the lovely brown of Copper Clay.
Today I have been searching the many different fancy folds around to bring you and I found one that Barry at Mituso Craft in the UK did a video for and I have recreated it using the A Little Latte Collection.

As you can see from the front of the card it looks like a normal regular card it is only as it opens that you see the surprise. I will show you that in a minute. Let me tell you how I created the decoration on the front.

The card base is our colour of the week Copper Clay and then I have a layer of Early Espresso. For the next layer I have used the stamps in the Love Latte stamp set and stamped in Copper Clay and Early Espresso the drops of coffee onto the Basic White card and then the coffee beans in Early Espresso to create my own background. The using the Deckled Circle Dies I have cut out a layer of Copper Clay card and the coffee cups from the A Little Latte DSP. Again using the Love Latte Dies, I have cut out the coffee Plunger in Copper Clay and the inside with the DSP and the Lemon Lolly Cup is also from the DSP. The Sentiment is stamped in Copper clay and cut out using the Deckled Rectangle Dies.

When you open the card you have another sentiment and a coffee pot, a couple of cups cut out of the DSP being handed to you and it all folds down into your coffee table. I have stamped the coffee cup in Copper Clay and used my Blender pen to draw out the ink to add a little more colour and the coffee is very strong in this one!
Here is a video of the card opening for you so that you know how it works.
On the back of the card is where you will need to add a panel so that you can write your message to the recipient.
I have tied the card together with the White diagonal trim from Petal Pink and White Combo pack.

If you have any questions about my card today please do not hesitate to contact me.

What a fun card, Sharon! I love that all the surprise components are clustered on a little "table" on the inside.

Cathy Proctor said...

What a fabulous funfold, Sharon! I love the video too showing how it pops up inside too - I’ll definitely be giving this fancy fold a try after seeing your amazing card!
