I have been wanting to do a card using the bat stamp for a while. I know he is supposed to hang upside down but for some reson when I look at him I see him throwing his hands up and cheering! Do you see it now? :)
Super simple I know, but I may try this again with a little more to the card. But for now this was just screaming to be made!
If you are wondering at all how I did the sentiment, don't cringe when I tell you but I cut apart the stamp to break it up into smaller chunks of words. I thought this way I can also use them with other sentiments. For example I cut it apart so that the "I am so", "thrilled", "that you" and "picked me" are all separate. That makes it easier to ink up small sections. They all still stamp perfectly. :)
Off to bed and on to another work day, and another election too. Jeez, I wish they would just agree to disagree and save us all some money! This is getting ridiculous.
Thanks so much for stopping by!

That little guy is so adorable! I totally see him with his hands up..so cute! Don't worry about the sentiment. I've cut up stamps before, too. Sometimes you just have to! :)
ReplyDeleteCute, cute, cute! Super clever--he does look like he's cheering!! I haven't been brave enough to cut my stamps, but your sentiment looks perfect! Have a good week :)
ReplyDeleteThis card is so adorable and I love the idea about cutting up the sentiment. Oh ya, and here here about the election. Do we really need to be wasting money on this. I hate politics.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea for your cheering bat ;)
ReplyDeleteI love that you customised the sentiment to suit you too - cutting up stamps just gives you even more options. What's not to love?!
Hugs, Ruth S
Love your cheering bat! The sentiment is (customized and) perfect, especially with the little hearts :)
ReplyDeleteThe first bout last night was an intra-league scrimmage, and it went well! I was a scorekeeper...turns out I can count and add just fine ;P
Next one's the 21st!
This is too cute! I wouldn't change a thing. I just love how simple and clean it looks!
ReplyDeleteOh my do I love this card! Too cute Kasia! I agree cutting up stamps is such a fun way to get more mileage from your sentiments, and yours is perfect!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely see the little dude cheering. :) Love the CASness. Have a great day today! :)
ReplyDeleteOK this is cutE! I love the sentiment you made! You are too crafty! :)
ReplyDeleteLOL this bat is SO DARN CUTE and you made him even CUTER! LOVE YOUR STYLE. Sometimes cutting those sentiments apart allow for much more creativity - they can always be paired back up on a block! :)
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, I love how you see stamps! This is the cutest!! I'm still afraid to cut up stamps in case I ever want to put them back together again and they don't line up right.
ReplyDeleteI cut my stamps too! Love the cheering bat. I see the squirrel in the new Hang Ups set cheering too. Great minds think alike. LOL
ReplyDeleteLove this little bat right-side up! After all, if he was upside-down, he'd be sleeping. :) And you've just given me a great idea for using one of my sentiments... once I cut it up. :D
ReplyDeleteAnd you got your wish... four years till the next election probably!
Super simple, but fabulous use of vision, and I totally get cutting them apart! He is so darn cute cheering! Love it!
ReplyDeleteTOO CUTE!! Love those paper smooches stamps!! (=
ReplyDeleteOMG Kasia!!! This sold me on this set! It's going in my cart soon! I totally see him cheering and I must have him! (I didn't totally like the bat until now! LOL)
ReplyDeleteOh I can't cut my sentiments!!! And I can't sew on paper either. I have been brainwashed and just can't do it!!! Anyhoo, your card is super cute!! LOve it!
ReplyDeleteSo genius to use the bat the other way round. I would never have thought of this. Totally love your style! Thank you also so much for the link for the picket fence die from the monster card and the lovely comment you left on my blog. I think I need to see if I can find that die in the UK, it is fab.
ReplyDeleteOh my!! Too cute!! I love the cheering bat! You do CAS so well!
