Wake Me When It’s October Skeleton Lounging in Coffin Retro Halloween Shirt Design
This Wake Me When It’s October design is one retro Halloween cut file with SVG, PNG, DXF, EPS and PDF included, made for t-shirts, mugs, tumblers, tote bags and stickers. You get the lazy skeleton figure with arms behind his head lounging in a coffin shape with a draped blanket, set against a retro striped semicircular sunset background with a small pine tree silhouette border.

It is drawn in flat cartoon vintage style in black, white, orange, red, yellow, cream, green and dark green that stays legible at small sizes.
