Cutting the Bat: 
Start by die-cutting the pieces for the bat using the Lovely Layers: Bat Dies. I chose a mix of dark gray and black cardstock to give the bat a spooky yet cute look. You will have to cut two of each piece to finish off both sides of the bat. Attach a clear thread down the center of the front bat before gluing on the back die-cut pieces. You will have to use the bad side of the die cuts so that the die cuts line up with the front. Trim anything that doesn't line up if necessary.

Background Design: 
For the background, I selected a skull-and-heart pattern from the Sweet & Spooky Paper Pad. The contrast of the soft pink hearts against the dark skulls gives the card a perfect Halloween vibe while keeping it playful.

Spinner Element: The spinner aspect of this card is what makes it extra fun! I used the Sweet Stacks Ovals to create an oval window in the center of the card. To assemble the spinner, I attached the clear thread to the top and bottom of the card base, securing it tightly with tape. For added stability, I pulled the thread ends to another area of the card base, secured them again with tape, and then trimmed off any excess. Finally, I adhered the top panel to the card front, sandwiching the thread between two layers of cardstock. This clever construction allows the bat to spin freely when the card is opened, adding a playful, interactive element that’s sure to delight!

Sentiment: 
The sentiment "I'm batty about you" was stamped using the Bee Creative Intense Black Ink onto a piece of pink cardstock. I then die-cut it using the coordinating Sweet Halloween Dies and adhered it below the spinner window.

Finishing Touches: 
To add a bit of sparkle, I embellished the card with the Sweet & Spooky Gem Stickers from the new Falloween Release. These stickers add just the right amount of shine to make the card pop.

Back to School BLAH Card ft. Honey Bee Blah Bunny Stamp Set


Hi Friends 😊

Today was the first day back to school for my kiddos! YAY for me, finally some peaceful hours to myself again!!! 

So for today's post I wanted to share a card that I made for my daughter who struggles from anxiety. She is in grade 6 this year and has been dealing with it since grade 1. Back to school time seems to be the worst for her as there are a lot of unknowns. She had a really difficult time with it last school year, so I hope this year will be better for her. Thankfully she was all smiles this morning, so I hope it was a good day!

I thought this Blah Bunny from Hunny Bee Stamps was the perfect stamp for this first day back to school card. I just really want her to know I am here for her and that everything will be Okay! I know my daughter can relate to this little guy's feelings and realize that many people feel the same way. I think this would also make a great card for the teachers... hmmm, maybe I will need to make a few more 😉

I love these Blah, Blah, Blah sentiments, some of them are hilarious! Here is how I finished the inside of the card. Sweet and too the point! Check out the links below for supplies I used in this card.


Here is the process video of my card for those of you that want to watch this card come to life! 


Hope this card has inspired you today. If you know someone suffering from anxiety, give them a hug... they probably need it 😊 Well, I'm off to pick up the kids from school soon. I hope it was a great first day of school!


Thanks for stopping by!
Happy Crafting  :)
