Altered wine bottle-Gauche Alchemy

Woo Hoo!

Its MONDAY!!!

Ok, I know that's not the normal Monday response, but I'm keeping it positive after seeing so many facebook status's revealing some seriously crummy mornings for my friends. lol

Today I'm sharing an altered wine bottle that I made with yummy gauche-y goodness!  I've been so tired of my layouts lately (they all look the same to me) so last month I decided to take a break from them and try some "off the page" projects which you are now starting to see.

I fell in love with an altered bottle that Chrissy made and had to give it a try myself and had so much fun with it! Unfortunately, I don't really know how to photograph these types of projects so excuse the pics.  I personally think this looks way cooler in real life!

I made this for my aunt who was one of my participants of my homemade "pay it forward" challenge that I joined over facebook in January. 

Here you can see some wire lacing, rolled flowers, and a heart and lock from Scrap Fx.   The tulle is from the Wedding night white mixed media color kit.

 I covered the bottle in some foreign text and then wrapped punchinella and lace around the middle.

I topped off the bottle with some washi covered in sugar coated glitter from Martha Stewart. Then added some Tim Holtz charms and beads from the several different Gauche Alchemy color kits.

Do you have any old bottle's just laying around?  Team up with Gauche and transform it into something beautiful or grungy like this one! Just have fun!!! 

Thanks for stopping by! I love you all to pieces and appreciate the fact that you are still taking the time to comment even though summer is keeping us all soooo busy!!! 

Have a wonderful and blessed week!
