My New Favorite Wine Treat!

I am having so much fun making these bottle hangers.  Since they don't have to fit in an envelope they can hang over and be as thick as I can possible make them!  This was hung from a bottle of bubbles (would have been nice to take a pic, huh!)
I don't do a lot of steam punk but I had a paper pack still and I thought it would be a perfect mesh (pun intended!) with Momma's Mesh.  The flap is tucked back but it just 3 inches longer, rounded on the end with a big circle punch to hang it from the bottle.
I am on the Monday Mesh team over at Lovebug and super excited for this to be my first project.  As usual... Let's start at the bottom.  Way under there is a blue/green sheet from the collection to just be a 'base'.  Then I picked an image I really liked and trimmed/layered it off the right side.  


 Before I adhered it down I wrapped it with some 'Where's Everybuggy' ribbon and hung a TH trinket pin with some charms from my stash.
Next FLOWERS!  Petaloo in perfectly coordinating colors.  I took one of each set and painted with gold dauber.  I needed some bling ;)
Finally... to totally make this work - I added a strip of mesh in the lower left hand corner.  Topped that with a smaller image from the 8x8 paper pad.  A few random gears and Viola - A beautiful way to give a bottle.
