The Eyes Have It

Time for a birthday card for a young grandson.  For this card I used a digital image, sentiment and paper from Doodle Pantry.  The set is call Monster Mash.  I like it because the monsters are cute and not gruesome or scary.

Following the sketch at Tuesday Morning Sketch:
I was originally going to put on buttons where indicated on the sketch,  but after adding googly eyes to the monster, I used some colored googly eyes as embellishments.
Speaking of eyes - look at this party idea from pinterest.  Cute by not too scary:



Back to the card: the image is pre-colored.  I love the paper.  It seemed like the white on the right side was too plain so I swiped the ink pad on the edges (DTP). 
Want to see the inside?

 Thanks for looking. Hope you have a monster big day too but not too scary.
