Aged to perfection!......

Number 1 son's girlfriend Sofia asked me to make her a card to give to her Dad on his 50th birthday. She left the design to me and this is what I came up with. The card base is an 8" square and the papers are from Papermanias Elegance A4 pad. The papers were matted onto black cardstock, the central panel being raised on foam pads. The bottle was cut from dark green pearlescent card with lighter green highlight. The label was cut from gold cardstock and I added 'DAD' and the 'vintage' cut from black mirri. '50' was cut from gold cardstock shadowed with black and adhered with foam pads, and 'aged to perfection' was cut from black mirri and adhered flat.
I added a label stamped with a happy birthday sentiment with bow embellishment and three gold card candi to finish.
Carts used:
Bottle- Suburbia
'50' and 'aged to perfection'- Over The Hill
1962 and DAD- Lyrical Letters
Thanks for dropping by!
