Visible Image - Wine Tag

Our theme at Visible Image this week is Men, and for my non-card brief I've made a wine tag.

You can buy wine tag dies, but it's easy enough to make your own - all you need is a large enough circle punch or die.  I cut a length of kraft card measuring 3.5" x 8", scored it at 3" to make a top fold, then cut a circle in that top fold, making sure to leave enough room for my sentiment,

I then stamped the sentiment below the cutout circle.

I coloured the wine bottle with Distress inks then die-cut it.

I stamped and die-cut the glass, then positioned it on the MISTI platform, taping it in place while I stamped the splash with Aged Mahogany Distress Ink.

Using the Orbs stencil I added some Cosmic Shimmer Gold Pearl Texture Paste to the top flap.  I covered the sentiment with a bit of washi tape to avoid getting any texture paste in the wrong place.

With the glass and bottle held in position by the magnet, I added a few random wine rings.

The final touch was to add a strip of washi tape along the lower edge, then adhere the bottle and glass into place.

Wine tags are a great alternative if you don't have a gift bag handy.  You can personalise them for your recipient, and there's room to write your message on the back.  Win, win - or wine, wine!

Cheers!
