handle with care

is the challenge #129 over at DragonsDream TIO.
This time the recipe includes: an animal, something fragile and a warning. below you can see my interpretation:

Another opportunity to point to some of my favourite creatures (you remember? LOL): bats.
They're protected animals (at least in Germany, I don't know about other countries), people aren't allowed to disturb them in their territories (thus the warning) and their wings are very fragile and fascinating things.

For the background I blotted some distress stains weathered wood and iced spruce on the craft sheet, sprinkled it with perfect pearls, swiped the TAG through the colors repeatedly and dried it inbetween.
I then stamped some cobwebs (T.H.) with white ink. The silhouette at the bottom, the hanging bat and the small ones are by 'de stempelwinkel', the barbed wire by T.H.

Thanks for looking.
Hugs, Suzanne xxx

  3. Hi Suzanne, happily most bats are protected here in the UK too, they are such sensitive little creatures and so very clever. Your tag is wonderful, love the way you created the background and it was an inspired idea to hang the bat from the barbed wire. Love the whole tag. Hugs, Anne x
