Fang-tastic Halloween

The challenge this week at Cricut Cardz is to make a Halloween card using the card feature of any cartridge. I decided to combine this challenge with the challenge at Paper Cutz, which is to make a Halloween project but without using any black or orange.
I had found a stamp the other day at Michael's on clearance that said, "Have a FANG-tastic Halloween!!!" When I saw these challenges I knew I wanted to use this stamp and make a vampire card. I used Mini Monsters and the card feature to make this shaped vampire card. I made it out of a dark gray shimmery cardstock. I used that same cardstock for the hair and bow tie. I used a pale cream cardstock for the body and white shimmery cardstock for the teeth and white part of the shirt. I used a purple cardstock for the main shirt. The card is cut at 5 3/4." I cut a piece of pale cream cardstock for the inside as well, trimming off the arms and ears. Once I got everything layered on the card I did some doodling on the shirt, cape and shoes. I used some google eyes in place of the paper ones that were cut. I then added some glossy accents on the hair and teeth to give them some shine. I used the stamp on the inside, with a glittery purple ink, and I think the sentiment is perfect for the card.
