Bats, Cats, and Witches

I decided to add a bit of Halloween fun. Bats, cats, and witches were cut out using a NSK Presto leaving negative images. As seen on the left its hard to discern the figures, but by adding the black tissue paper, they become obvious. Its fun letting people try to figure out whats going on without the tissue paper. Bradford pear, 4.5 x 8. painted black on the inside and Halloween orange on the outside,
Hal:

What a great idea, I love it! You are correct, without the tissue paper I initially didn't see your design, but that only adds to the effect.
