Before panic sets in, just think, I am sure people have wine corks they can cut and if you want some fabulous cork to work with, then do go to the website for sheets that you can tear, cut, stamp and all sorts. http://www.joannasheen.com/craft-supplies/cards-miscellaneous/real-cork-sheets-pack-of-5/ Also there is a place called cork looking forward to seeing what you all come up with.

I looked in Wikipedia and found this image of a Chinese Cork Oak which I then put through some software that made it into a watercolour effect. I had some cork from a pound shop excuse for a notice board, but couldn't bear to throw it out, so recycled it onto the card. I then found some letter stickers that were cork effect. All this stuff I didn't realise I had!!! And all because my wine bottle has a screw top!!! Apologies for the quality of the phot, but my hands are a bit shaky today! Love Jill x

Had fun with this one - googled cork and found this pic which is a cover of an aptly titled book! And if OH asks why one of the cork stoppers in the spice jars is a bit thinner than the others - don't tell him I sliced a piece of it off for the dangle will you?? C xx

I'm not a member, but my friend Jo is and we both just stroke the papers when she gets them. Before she'll use them she HAS to make sure that they're on a CD and even then she'll print them from the CD and not actually use the Guild ones!!! I'd be exactly the same!!! Love Jill x

Image from google, glittered the bubbles and then decoupaged bottle and cork. Tag attached with silver ribbon and then used silicone glue to keep it in place.

I've no idea if the image is 1890 but it is thereabouts and those were the numbers I had! Ali xx
