Spooky Bats...



Hello Friends,
Halloween is fast approaching and I'm trying to get some cards done to send out!  These cards were created using the retired stamp set Season's of Friendship.  I then heat embossed the tree which is my favorite stamp from this set! I decided to add some bats using the Bat Punch which you can get from Stampin' Up!'s CLEARANCE section HERE for only $9.99

Thank you for visiting today and don't forget to click on the promos above to get all the details!! Have a fantastic weekend friends!!


Challenges:CaSology- Night



I created the moon using the 1-3/8" and 1-1/4" circle punches.
Make sure to use a post it to punch the moon as a half moon with the 1-1/4" punch. I wanted to show this close up so you could hopefully see the heat embossing on the black tree.
My base measures 4-1/4" X 5-1/2, the Peach Parfait layer measures 4-1/8' X 5-3/8" and the Crumb Cake layer measures 4" X 5-1/4"I used Summer Starfruit card stock from the NEW In Color collection!
