Now the day has arrived I can get this posted, my hubby sometimes sneaks onto my blog to have a look at what I'm doing - so I have to be careful what I post when :)
So an unusual and dark valentines? Yes in both your assumptions. He likes skulls and collects skull t-shirts (I've lost count of how many he has), he has pictures of the grim reaper as his background on various different gadgets! So I know he's going to absolutely love this. 
The image is an Aurora wings one Momento Mori and I've used ProMarkers to colour it. Originally I was going to leave it on the white background I'd coloured it on but then changed my mind and fussy cut it. Here's a close up.
I've mounted the image onto plain black cardstock, then onto red card stock and left a white border. My hubby doesn't like my overly fussy cards so I kept this simple for him. I did a homemade sentiment and cut it out with a Spellbinders die. The only other things I added were some black and red self adhesive gems and a couple of enamelled hearts.
Happy valentines
