I don’t normally share anything until I am totally happy with it, but as this card fits with today’s “A Cut Above” online card class (dry embossing) then I thought I’d show you my progress so far. My daughter’s piano teacher is a huge fan of Apple. HUGE fan! And so I thought she’d love these notecards I’m making for my daughter to give to her at the end of term. Here’s the card so far:

This is just a tad CAS! I don’t think I’ve had such a short supply list before! I computer generated the sentiment then embossed a circle die before adding the apple icon with dimensional adhesive. The apple icon comes from a Papertrey Ink die with the leaf and a stalk attached, but I just scooped that part of the die cut out with my scissors and then cut out the leaf part and added it separately. The “bite” out of the apple uses a 3/4 inch circle punch but I think it’s a little too large and so I’m on the hunt for a 1/2 inch one. I’m intending making a dozen or so of these and dressing them up for gift giving. So not a completed project yet, but the idea is there.
