Happy Halloween card (and a challenge)

Well the weather here in southern Arizona is finally cooling off...and you know what that means!?! Halloween is coming! YAY! I absolutely LOVE all things Halloween! Well, I challenged myself to make a Halloween card without using any black...and here it is. I'm really pleased with the way it turned out. If any of you are so inclined, I'd love to see your take on a Halloween card using no black. Leave me a link in the comments, and I'll come check it out. Thanks for looking!
Supplies: kraft cardstock is Recollections, white cardstock (for stamped image) is Georgia Pacific, patterned papers are My Mind's Eye, image stamp is Stampin Up! ("Greeting Card Kids" set), colored with Prismacolor markers, sentiment stamp is The Paper Company Studio ("Jeepers Creepers" set), ink is Memento Rich Cocoa by Tsukineko, border punch is EK Success, corner rounder is We R Memory Keepers Corner Chomper, tulle is from Joann, twine is Darice, and the machine stitching was done with the Janome Sew Mini and Singer thread.
