Day 7 Giveaway: Purple Bats
Filed under Giveaways, Sale
Note: most of the links on this post no longer work, as we moved to a new Web site in 2018. But you can try searching on the same names (as links below) on the new site.

Today’s Giveaway set is dark, kind of Halloween-y, with lots of purple things. The set started with the new die-cut bats paper (nicely done… swirly and delicate).
Then I added 4 things in the same color palette (or theme) that were about to sell out (so they’re no longer on the site): a pocket notebook, “Ambrosia” paper pad, “Youth” mulberry paper flowers & a black paint dabber.
Plus there are a couple more things that are not sold out: Halloween bingo cards & purple shell disks (not new, but I just put them on sale).
Black Bats Die-Cut Paper (Eerie Doily)
New & on Sale! Die-cut & painted (kind of splattered) 12″ x 12″ cardstock.
Halloween Bingo Cards
On Sale! Heavy cardstock with 6 different Halloween-themed bingo-card designs (1 each of the 6 designs per set).
Purple Dyed Shell Disks
On Sale! Dyed mussel shell; 10mm diameter. Set of 20.
