Need a little help putting things together to make a fabulous card?? Or maybe you don’t have the time to design something yourself and want to just be able to put things together quickly! Well, we’ve taken out all the guess work for you and designed a Krafty Kardmaking Kit with everything you need to make SIX awesome cards AND have some goodies leftover to whip up some extras!

I used the SUPER fun new Halloween Tags set, which I cut out and colored with my Copics. I stamped it in Early Espresso ink, and the lightening was stamped with Tangerine Tango ink. I used Smooth White, Hot Fudge, Orange Fizz, and Berrylicious cardstock from MFT. My buttons are also from MFT: Berrylicious, Orange Fizz, and Sweet Tooth, and I used hemp cord tied through them. To finish I added some Sweet Tooth grosgrain, and a Spiderweb Die-namics in Hot Fudge from MFT.
