Just Us Girls Challenge #793 - Mood Board Week



I'm actually loving this photo!  Very Fall/Halloweenish to me.  Now, keep in mind, I really don't like Halloween.  That said, I do have a grandson who I need to keep in mind...as his mom is a HUGH fan of Halloween, therefore I'm thinking the gs will be too [as he gets older].  So, I went with an H Day card.

I obviously picked up on the color combo.  I dual layered a cover plate die and white inked the gray background panel after scoring lines all the way across using my Scor Pal.

I'm kind of okay with the end result.

Your turn.  Come on over to JUGS #793 and show us how the photo inspired you~


Thanks for stopping by~

The inspiration photo mood was definitely captured! Your colors mimic the pumpkins and overall ambiance, but your die cut brought it straight into Halloween. I too am not into Halloween but I'm pretty sure this CUTE card will work for your gs

This is really awesome! I love how you've went with this inspirational photo! The die cut background is so nicely done with that orange peeking out!

Vicki, you've nailed the spooky factor on your fabulous Halloween card! Such a fantastic die-cut cover - and the way you've created the base is brilliant!

Your background would be fabulous on any card, Vicki. The scoring inked in white and offset coverplate adds so much texture and interest. But the bats and jack-o-lantern worked great with it for Halloween.

A wonderfully textured background with the inked scoring and layered die cut Vicki! A great spooky face on the pumpkin and a lovely trio of bats flying by!

Vicki, you would never know you didn't like Halloween. This card is FABULOUS and I know your grandson will love it. I am in love with all of that gorgeous texture and the pops of orange behind that amazing die-cut background. Your Jack O'lantern is the perfect touch of creepy. LOVE IT. Thanks for having me as GD this month
