Craft Roulette Challenge #250: Coffee Valentine's

Submission #63 for me.  This makes two weeks in a row.  Stop the madness!

Not busy on a Friday night?  Find Craft Roulette on YouTube @CraftRoulette, subscribe to their channel, and play along when you can!  Every week is different and lots of fun!  You never know what the wheel will give for parameters.  Watch the show over the weekend, if you can't catch it live.

Episode #250 parameters, and how I met them:

• Project: FUNN Fold Card - this one is called a Pop-Up Z-fold
• Colors:  Nostalgic - pink and browns seem "vintage-y" to me
• Element:  Blanket - the very bottom layer is a blanket-pattern
• Random: Button(s) - I stamped and hand-cut a few paper buttons and popped up.

I'm not going to give paper measurements on this one, because I don't like how it turned out.  I took perfectly good instructions for a portrait-oriented card and tried to turn them into a landscape card with a bigger focal layer.  It didn't work out!  :)

I will give you some more pictures though.  This is the card open.  You can see my "Happy Valentine's Day" on the center panel.

Close-up of the coffee mug to show the Paper Piecing that I used.  Stamp the coffee mug on pink patterned paper, and then just cut out the flower.  I colored the leaf with green marker.

Finish with some Clear Wink of Stella all over the coffee foam, and the little heart "paper buttons".
