We’re starting a new challenge today over at Double Trouble. This time Thing 1 is asking you to create your own background. If you meet that requirement you qualify to enter, just give us a little detail on the technique or supplies you used.
Thing 3 has the optional challenge of including Halloween images, either “sweet and cute” or “spooky and scary.” I think my choices are a combination of both! Using one or the other, or both, is enough to earn an additional pick in the random drawing.
Finally, Thing 2 is looking for you to enter with our partner challenge this time, Park Hopping, My Happy Place Challenge.
The background I created was made with alcohol inks. I used two shades of orange and a little gold. The die cuts are from Spellbinders, a new set called “Halloween Wonder.”
Joining in these additional challenges:
Two Old Bats Halloween Challenge – anything goes for Halloween
Halloween Crafts All Year Round – anything goes for Halloween

Your card is such fun, Melanie, the die-cut ghosts are not too scary! I especially like the irregular edge of the moon – such a small feature with a big impact. Love the background, too.
