I made this card for my darling husband for Valentine's Day, I hope he loves it. It's supposed to be me haha (I personally wouldn't cuddle a bat, I have a little more weight than this but otherwise spitting image haha, blue eyes, brown hair, it's all about how you see yourself isn't it!?!) 

This was my first time creating a nighttime background with full moon and clouds with Copic markers, it took a while and I got very worried I'd ruined the picture for a bit and it finally came together okay so I would try it again some time, practice, practice...
