I used the pumpkin and kitty freebie digi by Michelle Perkett Studio - a true scaredy cat!! Sooo cute! I also wanted to use up some acetate from my stash. I first tried stamping a cloud background with white Staz On onto it but it just looked blotchy and rubbish so I used an embossing folder instead - I think it came out really fab! Gotta try that again! I made the bats by just knotting some sturdy black ribbon - I was surprised how well they turned out. Anyway, I hope you like! Go check out the other DT cards - they are really fab!!

I love the acetate. You did a great job with it. I looked at your card several times today and I did not realize that your bats were ribbon. Very cute.

I have finally had a chance to check out your blog and I love it. For someone who claims to not be crafty you make some amazing cards. I love this one because that is a very clever way to make bats. Thanks for sharing.
Gorgeous card, thank you for joining us at Sarah Hurley Challenges this week!

I can see why you picked this as your fav. It's so creative to have the clear 'forest' made by embossing acetate. And the bats are darling !
