World Cardmaking Day and Guest Designer at Just Us Girls #604 with a Halloween Card

*Some Affiliate Links are used in this post. Please see my Affiliate Link Policy.

Hi everyone!! I hope you all are doing well. Are you all playing along today with challenges in honor of World Cardmaking Day? 

For this month I am a guest designer at Just Us Girls Challenges Blog. I am so excited!! This week the theme is Halloween and I created my card in honor of this "holiday."

Below is the graphic for the challenge.

I started off my card by using some Distress Ink in *Twisted Citron and *Mowed Lawn. I then misted some *Twisted Citron Distress Stain, *Twisted Citron Distress Oxide Stain and Distress Mica Spray in Bubbling Cauldron over my ink blended panel.

While that was drying, I used the Elizabeth Craft "Pumpkins" to die cut scraps of orange, black and green papers for my pumpkins.

Before I put my Jack-O'-Lanterns together, I blended *Vintage Photo Distress Ink on all my die cuts. 


I adhered the dried white panel to a green A2, top folding card base. I added my die cuts and then stamped a sentiment from MFT's "Witch Way Candy" stamp set and it was done.

I hope you like my card and please join us this week over at Just Us Girls for the Halloween Challenge!!!

Thank you so much for stopping by. Have a FABULOUS day!! I hope you all are able to have some fun today on World Cardmaking Day.

    First of all, Welcome to JUGS! Fabulous Halloween card to start off your month. I love that background with the ink blending and sprays/splatters. Your pumpkins and their vines are fabulous with the addition of the Distress Ink adding depth and texture.
