She's a Sassy Lady-Twilight Birthday

Hey everyone!
It's my turn to guest design at She's a Sassy Lady. Thanks so much for having me Sheila.
I want to share with you all a card I made for my daughter's 17th birthday. She is a big Twilight fan, as am I. LOL!
I love the eyes on the wolf!
Recipe:
Standard A2 size card
Patterned paper- DCWV Immortal Love matstack
Jacob digi from Pixie Dust Studios
Sentiments from Pink by Design
Ribbon from stash
I have a little tip for you all. Although most of you may already know :)
I use black ink and clear embossing powder to emboss instead of black embossing powder. The black embossing powder makes such a mess. I also make sure to use my embossing buddy.(a little cloth bag filled with powder to remove the static from the paper so your embossing powder only sticks to the sentiment and not your paper) 

I colored up the Jacob digi with my copics. Love his muscles. LOL!
I used another page from the Immortal Love matstack to decorate the inside. Love these sentiments  by Pink by Design.
I hope you enjoyed my card today! 
Thanks again Sheila for having me.
Take care,
