Two Old Bats September Challenge




I've been asked to guest design for the Two Old Bats Halloween September Anything Goes challenge so here goes! 

I had a little fun with one of my gnome dies, adding some fangs for giggles, bat wings from a Lawn Fawn bitty box die set, and a bow tie. I used my fluorescent Copics to color the die-cut I.O ghosts, witch's hat brim and bow tie. The spooky tree is a die cut from SSS,  and the corner spider web and spider were made with dies from T.E. The bat is from Lawn Fawn with some glaze pen eyes and the little mice are die cuts from GMD. The sentiment is a pre-printed one from SSS and the dsp is SU! (retired). The inside says "You're my BOO, Happy Halloween."

Here's the inspirational photo for this month's challenge

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you'll find time to play along as Halloween is now just around the corner!

Take care and have a fabulous day!

You did a "fangtastic" job altering the gnome into a bat for your well deserved guest designer spot. He is so cute and those fangs are so fun! Great card, Carol.
