Boo to You - using a sketch

I'm back in blog land.......just been focusing on settling my 3 kids into school.  My youngest one (my baby) has just started secondary school and the other 2 have important academic exams this year.  It's going to be a 'full on' year but hopefully I will be able to keep my projects rolling here on my blog.  

I love this time of the year as I get to create projects using colours that I don't usually play with.  I recently purchased this set of washi tape and combined it with a sketch to make a super quick card.

I have Print and Cut this adorable bat from the Littles Cut Bundle (CS) which includes the cutest cutting files for Halloween and Christmas projects. I even stamped my sentiment above the strips of washi tape. 

If you head over to the LD site you will be just in time to grab their

Batty for you

Here is a card I have made "Batty for you" with my
Pazzles Inspiration electronic cutting machine.

I have used a banner with some digital papers.  Basically, I selected the digital papers and printed them using my printer menu.  Everyone's printer is different, but because I only wanted a small amount of the papers, I printed out 2 different papers on one sheet.  I then cut them out and placed them on my cutting mat.

I know I have the option to save the papers on my computer and then import them, but I find this far easier and quicker to do.

I cut some purple cardstock and used a scalloped paper punch for the border between the 2 joins of patterned papers.  I took my banner and made it into a simple shaped card using my software.

I then made my sentiment using black cardstock.  I typed the word "Batty" in my software and welded the letters together.  I then found a stamp in my crafting cupboard and stamped "for you" using black ink.  These days I hardly ever buy stamped sentiments, as it is so easy to make my own using my cutting machine.

I Print & Cut this cute bat which comes in ai, dxf, eps, gsd, jpg, pdf and svg file formats and adhered it to the front of my card using craft foam pads.
