The Cutting Cafe Wine Bottle Shaped Card

It's almost time to ring in the new year so at The Cutting Cafe Blog this week the DT is featuring cards using the Wine Bottle Shaped Card and the Wine Glass Shaped Card.  Obviously, I used the wine bottle shaped card.  This cutting file/template comes with a matching envelope, five circle sentiments, 2 regular sentiments, and some cute wine stopper tops.  Sometimes I just get tired of pulling out my cutting machine.  I don't have a craft room so every time I need to use my Silhouette or Cricut I have to haul them out and set them up on the dining table.  When I'm finished I have to put everything away or else we wouldn't be able to sit down and have our dinner.  LOL  So for my card this week I just printed out the bottle onto cardstock and hand cut it.  It didn't take any time at all, in fact, less time than it would have taken to get my Silhouette out and set up with my computer, get the card laid out onto the mat screen, get the mat out, load the paper onto it, etc. I cut the base card from a beige cardstock then topped it with a pretty green patterned paper from K&Company.  A couple years ago, when cork first started coming on the papercrafting scene, I found this set of cork flower stickers.  I had completely forgotten about them and came across them when I was pulling out the patterned paper for the wine bottle.  I was going to use a piece of cork for the stopper in the bottle and thought it would be a nice touch to add the cork flower to the bottle.  With the cork flowers there were some scalloped circles and I've been wondering if I could stamp on cork.  Sure enough it worked.  After stamping Happy New Year on the cork I put it onto a tag.  I tied a pretty polka dot wired ribbon around the neck of the bottle and attached the tag around the ribbon.  For a little more embellishment I added some pretty sequins and a little bit of Stickles.  I was disappointed that they didn't show up better in the picture. I know this is a busy week for everyone, but on Wednesday after the presents are all unwrapped and your ready for a little relaxing check in at The Cutting Cafe Blog to see the rest of the DT projects.  Merry Christmas, everyone!
