I have been digging through the box of Halloween crafting supplies and found several items which I had completely forgotten or which I simply haven't used in ages. I found these three, old, foam stamps (Does anyone remember those? Cheap and usually in the discount bin. :-D) with different bats. Perfect for Halloween. The sticker tags which used to be on top have long ago disappeared so I have no idea what company made the stamps but I'd dare bet they were "Made in China." lol
I found an Onyx ink pad which also hasn't been used in several years but which still had enough ink to stamp the three bats onto lavender CS. Before I cut them, I typed a sentiment, moved it into place so that it would print below the bats, then ran the CS through my printer. I cut the image with a QuicKutz square die.
I colored the eyes with gel pens and added tiny, white, Vampire teeth to one of the bats. I used two scraps of orange CS and mounted everything onto a black card base. The sheer & satin, black ribbon came from Really Reasonable Ribbon and I tied a double loop bow using my bow maker.

Really adorable card NC! Love the way you've done the eyeballs on the bats and the colors are perfect for Halloween! P.S. That bow is looking stunning!
I love finding items in my stash to use. And most the time no idea where they came from. Sometimes sales or even yard sales.
I love the vampire teeth on that little bat! I have a basket somewhere of those foam stamps with pumpkins (no idea where I got them!) but the gremlins have taken it away I think! :( These little guys are just so cute and I love the paper!
Love those googly eyes on them.
Brilliant card! Love the bats and sentiment. Thank you for sharing with us at Creative Inspirations, good luck.
