Printing and Cutting Bats
Black bats look best on orange, lime green, yellow or white. Purple bats glow on black card stock. For a moon scene, cut a big yellow circle and set a silhouette across it.
The PNG files are 1000 pixels square, which stays crisp to about 3 inches wide on paper. That size is right for treat seals and window bats. For a bigger door bat, use the outline or silhouette, since solid black shapes enlarge with clean edges.
Bat wings have lots of points. When you cut by hand, snip into each point from the outside rather than turning the paper around it. A cutting machine handles the silhouettes well for vinyl.
