Cut it Up Challenge #365 ~ Black and Orange

It's time for another Cut it Up Challenge. Our theme for challenge #365 is Black and Orange.Your card does not have to be Halloween-themed.  We just want black and orange as your main color choices.
My card is Halloween and it was created using all die cuts and embossed paper from my stash.  I've been doing a MAJOR craft room clean and purge so I decided to us only from stash for this project.

I hope you'll visit the CIU blog and then decide to play along.  The challenge is open until noon, September 28.
