Delightfully Wicked

Wanted to share a couple more cards using the delightful Wicked stamp set, which is the stamp-of-the-month from Close To My Heart.  This stamp set has a fabulous witch, broomstick, scary cat, and witch's hat, along with some great sentiments


For a non-Halloween look, this card shows only the legs of the witch along with the "best foot forward" sentiment and the Dreamin' paper packet.  Both the double-edged scallop piece and the fancy frame for the sentiment are cut using the Cricut cartridge from the Art Philosophy collection.   A little 'sparkle' was added to the shoes using Glitz Glitter Gel.

To create the pumpkin for this fun Halloween card, three ovals were cut using the Art Philosophy Cricut cartridge and then stamped using the 'honeycomb' image from the Wicked stamp set.  The card is completed using a striped paper from the new Sonoma paper packet, a 'photo corner' cut using the Cricut, and a pumpkin stem which is actually the witch's hat.  This clever idea was 'stamplifted' from the very creative Jen Rubio

The Wicked stamp set is only available during the month of August.  The regular price is  $17.95, or you can purchase it for only $5 with a minimum order of $50 in other CTMH products.   



In addition, Close To My Heart is celebrating their newly updated Stamp-of-the-Month program by offering an "Extra! Extra!" bonus stamp set with the purchase of the August SOTM at the discounted $5 price.  A Typeface is a great little alphabet set that is only available this month and is FREE!  It has a retail value of $6.95.
