Hi everyone! Carina from Anja's CT here to get you going on this month's challenge!

October is one of my favorite months of the year because that means we get to celebrate one of my best-loved holidays - Halloween!
I know this isn't everyone's cup of tea so I am gonna take that into account when it comes to hosting the October challenge.

The theme for the challenge is DARK & MOODY and I am gonna give you two options.

***OPTION 1***
If you are anything like me and just love Halloween and all the little scary/geeky things that makes your heart happy I want you to create a layout about your favorite monster or mythical character that you might associate with this time of the year. It can be werewolves, fairies, zombies, mummies, Frankenstein, The monster of the blue lagoon or even a fan fiction persona like Jason or Michael Myers. For me it has always been about VAMPIRES!

Here´s my inspiration layout:

***OPTION 2***
If you on the other hand aren't that into Halloween I want you to create a layout that still feels "dark and moody" and that relates to the darker season that we at least in the northern hemisphere are entering. Pick a photo or image of a misty morning/evening, an abandoned place, a gloomy forest - I think you get the picture.

Here's a layout I made to give you the feeling of what I am aiming for:
