Bottle shaped card

Hey there! Today I want to share a card that I made for my dad's ex-boss on his retirement.
My mom and dad wanted me to make a card in a different shape so I came up with a bottle shaped card.
Here it is...
 As you can see I also made a matching envelope with the card.
 My dad had sent me the wordings for the card, so I stuck the greetings on the right inner side and made a tag for the left side.
 The tag can also be used as a bookmark later.
A close-up of the front side...If you see carefully, the flourishes are actually the negative part of the punched border used for the envelope, which we normally discard. Also the little stars added on the greeting inside is from the punched border.
Challenges entered:
ICR Challenges: ICRC12 - Dots & /Stripes + tag
Card Makin' Mamas - Sentiments
Rainbow Lady's - Cards for Men
Stampavie and More - #156 anything but square

EDITED: Sharing the template I used to make this card.

On your Retirement, Dad!

It is indeed a very proud moment for me that my retired from the Indian Army on 11th Mar 2011, after 30 long years of service. I wanted to make a very special card for him. He is an ardent admirer of my work and he cherishes each card that I gift him :) Love you Dad!
