Hello again!

Next up today is my entry in this week’s Color Throwdown challenge which has a beautiful and unusual combo of burnt orange, black and sage.

I saw this sentiment online over the weekend – I think it was Instagram, but I can’t find it again now. But anyway it really made me stop and think… I decided it would be perfect to create some colourful bats from patterned paper for this week’s challenge.

Believe me, if you had told me a few years ago, hey even 48 hours ago, that I would be making a BAT card, I would NEVER have believed you. The bats have clearly recruited an excellent publicist this year!

I actually thought I had a lot of bat dies but when I looked through my supplies they were generally small and coordinating dies. So I chose some from a Spellbinders Halloween set that I bought a few years ago and got cutting.

I printed the sentiment onto some mottle-effect card that I have had forever and cut it with an irregular circle die to create a moon.

This was super difficult to photograph in my photo box – I may try to take the photos again in natural daylight…

Thanks for stopping by!
