Grotesque gargoyle - for some awesome boy!

-
Hello everyone!  I had to go shopping for my hubby today... yikes... not easy... lol he's color blind... and he has an opinion that doesn't always fit him... oh well ;)  We managed to find stuff.  So it's done!

After I just HAD to create a card.  I've been meaning to play along at Macabre Monday... took forever to join in but I finally created a card for it!  And this card will be used for my son's Sweet 16 ;)  YUP he's turning 16 in the month of May.  And I wanted to make a card that was special for him.  I think I have made one just perfect for him.

I had seen a card from Teri using her fabulous digi Grotesque gargoyle and just knew that I wanted to use it as well!  So this is what I came with.  The designer paper is also from Teri.

For this card I put the awesome image on a black card stock and then fussy cut it out.  I used my cameo to cut out the ravens.  I made the round paper embellishment at the top with my round paper punch and a brad with Eyelet outlet.

Here's a closer look at the fabulous digi colored lightly with my copics.
And I have stamped the inside with a stamp that I had purchased and never used yet!  I thought it was just perfect for this!!!  I used my wonky rectangle from Spellbinder.

For this card I'm entering the following challenges:
  1. Haunted design house - Gruesome guardians (last minute entry... sorry!)
  2. Quoth the raven - Tic tac toe (I used punch/raven/ metal(the brad) and also red/ribbon/metal)
So hope you liked my card!  But I hope that my son loves it even more!!!!  

Hugs

Vicky
