Sketch N Scrap National Card Month challenge #4

Good morning Sketch N Scrap fans! Hope your having a 

great fall weekend! Halloween is next Friday! 

My family is hosting the Halloween party this year!

It is Walking Dead themed! You must come dressed as a 

zombie or zombie hunter. We will have a maze through

the 6 feet tall grass at the back of the property and also

have zombie paper targets set up for throwing knives and

shooting bows. No guns since it'll probably be getting

dark and also we might have some children over too.

Anyways, the last National Card Month theme challenge

is "Halloween or use orange."

Here is my Halloween card:
