The basic idea is good: girl covered in blood and looking hysterically badass. Cliche but an old standby for the monster/horror genre. There is also a biblical je ne sais quoi to it, which fits the title. However, the image is badly executed. Everything seems blurry. The girl is too blended into an indistinct texture background. It's hard to see what's what between the many layered grunge effects, lack of color contrast, and general messiness.
The text is difficult to read from lack of contrast, especially the tagline (which is a bit large...). The title feels too close to the bottom margin. The author name is shoved unceremoniously to one side to make room for an unreadable contest sticker. It needs a solid 20 seconds and a lot of squinting to be deciphered, only to find out it's a third place win. Don't mess up what little symmetry your cover has for a third place sicker (or any sticker for that matter).
Overall, an okay idea that needs a little rework.

The attempt to explain as much as possible about your story in such a small space is off-putting and spoilery. "Monster Apocalypse survival" reads like another tagline. After that, it's only misplaced tags and a deceiving Watties award mention. We won't elaborate on our opinion of the Wattys, but nobody cares if you registered. Using a tag is enough.
