A die-cut apple card! I've used the petal cone die to get the basic shape of my apple, but I adjusted the width, so the apple was not so fat, by folding my cardstock in half & bringing the fold away from the centre crease line, like this:-
The bottom curved edge of the apple was cut by hand. To disguise the crease lines in my apple shape, I've embossed it with the lattice embossing folder, & used just a "touch" of sponging, lol!
I traced around my embossed apple to get the shape for my actual card. The leaf was punched from the blossom petals builder punch & the stem was made from the round tab punch. The stem was sandwiched in between the embossed layer of the apple & the actual card. A layered tag, attached with cherry baker's twine completes the project. I think it kinda looks like one of those straight sided Jonathon Apples - yum!
We hope you can join us this week - here's the Challenge details & link, & below it you will find links to the Team, so you can check out all their gorgeous school inspired creations. Obviously I am not the only one who associates apples with school, as you will find a couple more apples there too, lol. :)
