Hang In There


I'm still not into full swing of making cards yet, but I recently made and sent this to a friend's son who had surgery. I was gifted recently with the Lawn Fawn tiny gift box and a few add-on dies to go along with it. This is one of the add-on dies - a bat and I decided to hang him onto a woodland branch die cut after die-cutting and sponging a big moon behind him. The birds were stamped with a SNSS stamp set and the sentiment is by SU! done on a Lil Inker stitched banner die cut. I added purple stickles for the eyes. The background is designer paper.

I will enter this into the NBUS challenge #14 as it's the first time I used this bat add-on die. 

I'm also entering it into the Snippets Playground #378 since it was put together with all snippets.

Thanks for stopping by and I wish you a wonderful day. I will be back soon, although I'm working on another jigsaw puzzle again :)

Your card did make me smile. I’m finding it really difficult to be in my craft room right now. The garden is so much more inticing. Hugs Mrs A.
