Welcome to Early Espresso Week of the Colour Creations Blog Hop for 2024.

Today I have for you a Double Tri-fold card. It is 2 tri-fold cards joined together. I follow Jay and Barry at Mitosu Crafts and this was a fold that Barry did so I thought I would give it a go.

Here is the colour combination that I used which I largely took from the Country Woods DSP.

I used 3 stamp sets for this card 2 on the front and another for the inside. The base of the card is in Early Espresso card and I went from there.

I have embossed a layer of Basic White card with the Exposed Brick embossing folder and layered a strip of Country Woods DSP after attaching the Basic White diagonal Trim from the Petal Pink and White Combo pack. The leaves are stamped in Early Espresso from the Thoughtful Wishes stamp set and coloured with light and dark Pool Party Blends and die cut out with the Thoughtful wishes dies whish are the 2 sprig of Early Espresso behind it. The sentiment is from the Country Birdhouse Stamp set and stamped in Early Espresso and Cut with the Stylish Shapes Dies.


Now to open the card.

On the left tri-fold the card I have decorated the fold with the Country Woods DSP which has Early Espresso as one of it's colours and this piece also has Pool Party. I have embossed another piece of  Basic White with the Exposed Brick. I have stamped the images from the Country Flowers stamp set.

and I have coloured the images with the Stampin' Blends.

The flowers are Light and Dark Pool Party, Light and Dark Petal Pink, Lemon Lolly and a dab of Wild Wheat. The Pot is coloured in Light and Dark Gray Granite and a little Dark Crumb Cake. The Happy Birthday was then stamped in Early Espresso. The table is coloured in light and Dark Crumb Cake and Dark Pool Party.

On this second tri fold card I have added a sprig of die cut flowers in Pool Party, Lemon Lolly and Petal Pink with a little bit of Early Espresso and attached that to the front and the stamped image from the Thoughtful Wishes is coloured in with Stampin' blends and attached to the back.

    Wow, another super fancy fold design, Sharon. This is incredible and looks like so much work. Love the small sentiment stamped on the pot and your choice of DSPs. Lovely card.
