Hi there! Today I've gone batty! More Halloween fun here on my blog this week. I have so many ideas and I'm going to run out of time! LOL. Today's card is a slightly different variation of one of the cards I did in my classes at Paper Garden last month. I had left over supplies so I made the extra cards – now I have instant Halloween cards for people. This one was a favorite. Looks complex, but couldn't be easier – you'll see.
This card is very traditional…just orange and black. Such nice contrast! Usually when I cut out the super fab Tessatina Die I cut it in white. Well, here in black it takes on a very gothic and vintage look, especially against the orange. I rather like it in black too! The bats are from a giant EK Success punch, so making those is easy-peasy. The sentiment is brand new this season from Memory Box. Love it!
In case you haven't figured out…I'm crazy for those bumpy blings!
Once you get everything cut out, this card comes together pretty easily. I popped the bats up on foam tape. This is a great card layout too. Instead of bats, you can use butterflies, flowers, birds, or anything else!
It's getting closer to the weekend! Yippppeeeeee! My awesome friends from LA are coming up and puttin' on a big stamp show here in my town this weekend and I'll be working the show. If you're local, come on out…Saturday all day at the Scottish Rite Center by Sac State! Yahooooooo! Have a marvelous day bloggy peeps!

I may just have to get that Tessatina die. I have to miss the stamp show this year–too bad–I’ve really enjoyed it the past few years.
Very cute..have a super weekend!
LOVE it! I would have a ball playing with all your die cuts! 🙂 Have an awesome weekend!
That is a fun Halloween card. So cute! Have a great time Saturday.
OMGoodness, how fabulous, Wanda! LOVE the graphic look to this, and the traditional black and orange color combo is so striking! Really love that fun sentiment. LOVE the die cut background border and the punched bats, too. And those bumpy blings add the best finishing touch. So love this!
Your weekend sounds like fun! Have a great time at the stampy convention. 🙂
Love this card. Happy last day of Summer – bring on Fall, Halloween, and cuddly sweatshirts!
Love those blingy bats, my dear. 🙂
Forgot to ask….who makes the Tessatina die? Where can I purchase it?
Fab Halloween card, Wanda! Love the clean design and the little touch of bling!
