Build A Bat

I had so much fun making these little black bats.  I used them to decorate a spooky Halloween Tree.  Here are all the steps to create my cute little bats.

Supplies: SHOP 24/7 to get any supplies you need.

Small Oval Punch107304, Scallop Oval Punch 114889, Wide Oval Punch 112082, Scallop Edge Punch 112091, Craft White Reinker 101780, Mat Pack 105826, Snail Adhesive 104332

Punch out the body of the bat with the SMALL OVAL PUNCH.

Create the bat ears on the top of the oval by using the SCALLOP EDGE PUNCH to nip a little "V" out.

Step One to create the bat wings is to punch a SCALLOP OVAL.

Step Two is using the WIDE OVAL PUNCH to punch just above the scallop oval.

Add the eyes by dipping a stylus into a drop of CRAFT WHITE REINKER and dotting each eye.

Attach the wings to the body with SNAIL ADHESIVE.

Punch a hole in the bat belly using the MAT PACK with a paper piercing tool.

Using clear transparent, thread the bat belly and tie a knot.

Tip: I put eyes on both sides of the bat so it always has eyes showing as it dangles from the spooky tree!

I hope this inspires you to make some fun little bats for your Halloween decorations.  Our high quality punches and products make it so easy to build a bunch o' bats!
