Dracula's Curse Prototype Cards' Back

Hi, I'm currently designing a Party game, and right now i'm working on the cards' back art. I have received feedback from facebook groups and after some comments and majority of votes i decided to go with an image instead of the game's name, especially since the game's name will be everywhere else...
So, what do you think, design wise? Is it okay for a card back?
The art isn't final, but i'm probably keeping it. I won't use blending colors, as the rest of the art is simple plain 2D art, and i want to keep the art direction... Is the art aceptable? does it look like a wax seal?

Info about the cards:
The cards are secret identities each player can have. The core game includes 50 different ones, and the idea is that playesr can't reveal them. I liked the idea of making it like a sealed envelope, as it shows the "secrety" of each card. The other side of the card shows a frame with the Identity art, as well as the effect of the card.

If the cards are going to be

If the cards are going to be held vertically I don't think having the logo sideways would look well.
The seal is too plain to go with such a realistic paper background, you should either simplify the background or look at getting a more realistic rendering of the seal. Wax is shinier too.
Also even though there were means to have two colour seals I think it'll probably work better as wax seal in a single colour.
The shadow on the paper is off too. It's like it's a very thick paper with a 45º cut. It should be a soft shadow on one side.

Hope this helps
