There are some great shaped cards on the CD, and I decided to take a short cut by printing a wine bottle shaped card and then turning the card over to print the backing paper. Unfortunately I put the card back in the printer the wrong way round and ended up with the inside of the card lined with upside-down wine glasses. I rescued it, though, by printing a new backing sheet and bonding it to the card with spray adhesive (making SURE it was the right way up!) before cutting it out.
There are lots of labels to choose from for the front and back of the bottle - I went with two that tied in well with the challenge, and then added a blank label to the inside to write on. A couple of "cork" sentiments added with 3d foam were all it needed to complete a very unusual card.

Hi Jane, this is stunning. Well done for making your own bottle, I like it a lot. The sentiments are super as is the design. Thanks for joining us again this week.

Great card and great save. We've all done it - or something similar. I have to make and easel card out if one I put upside down just a couple of days ago.
Thank you for joining us again this week.

Hi Jane... I love your rescue. Kind of thing I would have done and do you remember Joanna Sheen used to do it on C & C?
