  20. This is very nice - love that embossed background and how you distressed it. It reminds me of a card you made a couple weeks ago that I loved where you used the same technique - I really must try this! The bat is the perfect addition. I'm so glad you joined us at Glitter n Sparkle for our Halloween challenge. Good luck in the draw!
