Directions
1. In program of choice, start a new document 6”x6”.

2. Arrange backgrounds and stitching as desired.

3. Print

4. Create a new document 8”x10”.

5. Add two baby bottle elements, about 4.5” inches tall. Add text to each bottle. (I used a medium gray color.) I put the invitation info on one, and the rest of the poem on the other.

6. Create a small rectangle with “BG_Marbledpink” about 2” x 2.5”. Add text. Add brads in corners.

7. Arrange pieces so that there is no overlap.

8. Cut out printed background and all other printed elements.

9. Add adhesive to the cardstock and place the background.

10. Carefully score the top bottle just under the ring. Adhere the two bottles to each other, so that the top lifts away from the bottom.

11. Punch two holes on either side of the bottle ring and affix two eyelets.

12. Carefully thread a ribbon and tie into a bow.

13. Place foam adhesive behind all cut elements and adhere to card base.
