Paper Crafting Journey's new challenge - Use Halloween colours

It's time for a new challenge over at Paper Crafting Journey and this time we'd love to see you use Halloween colours. I love the idea of using Halloween colours rather than a Halloween challenge as it means it doesn't have to be card for Halloween. Having said that, my card is definitely Halloweeny lol!! I have used one of the sponsor's images (Just Some Lines), this little witch isn't very scary but she's definitely cute! I doodled the border and corner cobweb, had to practice on scrap paper first as my doodles don't always work out how I think they will hehe.

I have used a gorgeous flourish (called Jessie flourish) and black leaves (from our Jack vine) at Flourish with a Bling.

Flourish with a Bling have a 50% off sale all throughout October, the only items not discounted are the already amazingingly priced value packs, everything else is half off!! I hope you'll check out our website as we have our own unique products and we post worldwide. Please email if you would like rough estimates of shipping, if we can send it as a large letter we will or perhaps get your friends to all buy too and share the postage! If you're order is over $200AUD we will pay half the shipping (international orders). If you mention my blog (Lucy) when ordering we will send you a bonus Jasmine laser flourish!
