On the inside I used the sentiment "oink you very much" because how totally awesome is that!!! I combined this with a bit of the same paper and a burlap heart!

Kraftin' Kimmie August Release - Day Two!



Hey everyone!!! Welcome back to Day TWO of our August Krafty Peeks! Hope you all enjoyed yesterday and are super pumped for today's newest set!!!

We are back again with more terror-ific stamps and designs and all of our new Halloween sets will be released on Saturday night!


Today we are sharing an Witchin' new stamp set by artist Emilie Goulet! This fun set has two main images of a high-flying witch with her kitty cat friend and a whimsical bitty bat! The set also comes with EIGHT fun sentiments! This new set is called TOTALLY WITCHIN'!!

 
Well I not only did the outside of my card but the inside as well! On the outside I used the witch and her kitty and on the inside I used the bat and a sentiment. The circle behind the witch is actually a shaker with all kinds of glitter and bat sequins in it! I used some older paper by Graphic 45 called Happy Haunting. The flowers are from Wild Orchid, I also used some twine and jewels.

On the inside I used the same paper. I also put jewels in the opposite corners from the sentiment and the bat.

Be sure to join us for all the fun and excitement on Saturday night beginning at 6pm EST for our LIVE Online Release Party!
