The metallic background is cut from a sheet of newspaper that was under a project my husband was spray-painting - I'm sure he will recognize it. The nevermore stamp set doesn't have wings, but it does have a raven, so I stamped the raven twice, once using a mirror image stamp, and cut the wings off the raven. The orange accents are a Harley Davidson color . This is the inside of the card:
It is very much my husband's style.

How cool !!
My soon to be son-in-law LOVES skulls.
My daughter says she respects his love of skulls but he can have no skulls at the wedding. I have been trying to find a tiny skull that I can incorporate into his boutanierre. (spelling?)
I was thinking of a snap dragon in amongst the other flowers with a tiny skull drawn on it. Snapdragons sort of look like skulls anyway, don't they? LOL

Great card- and a very creative way to make the wings! As an ICU nurse for many years, I am not fond of skull images.... Love your metallic recycle bg and the touch of orange on your card. I always love cards that are truly personalized : )
This is an awesome card. I love how you tailored it to fit your husband's interests and taste. The skull with the wings is a cool idea and your sentiment made me laugh. I hope he loves it! Thanks for joining our Father's Day/Masculine card challenge at Craft Your Passion. Hopefully we'll see you again soon.
