Wine and cocktails 2018 mini calendar wall hanging -  Day 10 of my 365 day challenge Hi Craft addicts!

I cut two sets of the "Food and drink" dies from Trimcraft, First Edition in black card (again using Lynda Chapman's black card as it cuts so well). and decided that I would use 2 of the larger wine bottles along with the vine and 3 of the glasses. I stuck them down using Cosmic Shimmer PVA ov...
