Birthday Bottles.
It was our SIL's birthday last week and this is the card I made for the occasion. I was trying to make it look like a tiered birthday cake of bottles but in hindsight I think I should have had another bottle on the bottom row and made the cake a bit wider. The stamp I was using for the bottle actually had a glass of wine and a bunch of grapes attached so I had to do a lot of stamping and masking.I coloured the bottles and vines with my promarkers and outlined the leaves using a gold gel pen. I love using this stamp set by Clear Impressions that came free in Creative Stamping magazine. It is so perfect for making male cards with.

Wow, what a lot of masking that involved! I think that I would have had my eyes crossed by the time I had masked and colored all those bottles, but this is a fabulous result. I have a stamp set with wine bottles but never know how to color the bottles. Now I'll borrow your idea and go with a dark green, which looks perfect with the purple grapes.
Well worth all the effort Valery it’s a brilliant card both outside and inside....bet he loved it!....xxxx

Wow, what a fun idea for this card. A lot of masking but it is so fun. The gold outline on the leaves really brings them to life. I think she'll really like this. What is a shark's favorite sandwich? Peanut butter and jellyfish. Have a great weekend.

done a fab work with masking!! It surely has been so fatiguing but the result looks amazing! Great card!
Great masking stamping Mrs A, I think the effort was well worth it. I'm sure your SIL loved it.

This is my kinda card! Stack 'em up, and then bottoms up! LOL just kidding, this is really a great card for someone who loves wine! I'm one of those weird ones that does not care for wine :)
I think the bottle cake looks just fine. That's a lot of fiddly masking & stamping, so I applaud your patience (and finite skills - I always seem to get a halo when masking!) Love the bright greens on this...I bet your SIL loved it! TFS & Hugs
Looks awesome inside and out, love the whole card.x
Aren't you clever?! Wonderful guy card!
What a fun card, that took tremendous patience!
brilliant idea to stamp the bottles in the cake theme!
I love thid pretty stamp. I am just working on placecards, name tags and menus for my daughters 13th Anniversary. The grandchildren are making dinner at my eldest daughters. They are turning her house into a restaurant called the Spicy Meatball. Oh yes, I must make the restaurant name sign too! What fun
