The Cutie Pie Challenge  -  95 Krafty Cuties

..........

Updated 25th January: This is a rather interesting situation - I love doing what I do, ''jack of all trades, master of none'' that aside, I've just looked back over six months, this card has attracted the most hits, not a lot, but the most.  The only comments, ever of course are from DTs from various challenges.
''Thank you for joining in at the Cutie Pies, however, we would like to see some kraft card on your project, so unfortunately your pretty card will not be eligible for a prize''
I think it's an interesting point.  Yes I could have stood back and threw some embellishments, bows, bling & stars, but why?  The whole card IMHO is a concept of ..... dare I say creativity\explosion of colour on opening the bottle, which apart from Mo's digi is entirely my own.  I'm  prepared to share the background graphic and explain how it was done.

Exciting and new digi in .png format
What this means is a background can be dropped (without fiddling) behind the image
or
the images can be layered, clean & easily with other images
It's a fantastic development
You don't need advance graphics knowledge, many programmes can use these to their
full advantage, or simply carry on as before
Paintshop Pro is available for a month free trial
and 
Paint.nett is totally FREE

Note
This started with the want\desire to use the image
I had the general idea, but it all looked lost
It didn't POP
Hence the added texture embossing & background grey layer
Whether it qualifies as a CAS, I'm not sure
BUT
It truly is one of the most beautiful cards I've made in a long time
and for that
THANK YOU - CAS CHALLENGE
