Here is my finished card.

Inside of the card.

What I used

Stamp- Sentiment-Hero Arts

Die - Swirly Bat Cutout - Poppystamps (1247)

Inside Boo 31 - Alterations, Sizzix, Tim Holtz

Black and White Glitter Paper - Docrafts

Bat Designer Paper - Pebbles

White card base 5x7 inches

Black Glitter paper mat 43/4 x 63/4 inches

Baker's twine - Black and White

White stitched black ribbon

4 faceted self stick black dots

How I made it

I cut a 5x 2 3/4* inch of white and black glittered card stock.

Centered the bat die on them and cut them out.  Be careful

to save all the pieces.

Using a piece of copy paper, cut two pieces slightly smaller

than the pieces you cute the bat out of and attach to the back

with sticky tape.  Now, in the black bat cutout, fill the

spaces with the white glitter pieces.  Set the white cutout

and the black pieces aside for another card.

Because you have the sticky tape on the copy paper you attached 

on the bat cutout, the pieces will stick and your overlayed bat

is created.

I attached this to the middle of my card using a glue gun only

 on the edges and beveled it slightly. 

 If you want to do this, cut your strip 5 1/8x2 3/4* inches. 

Otherwise, just adhere to the middle of the card.

Fun card for the Holloween season!  The bat can also be used just as a cutout

with a different color paper behind it.

Thanks for stopping by today.  Have a great day.  Until later.......
