Cards for Men - Challenge Twelve - "Black and Blue"

Good Morning Everyone hope youve had a lovely weekend and well another two weeks have flown by and weve now reached our Twelfth Challenge for Cards for Men and this week its my fellow DT member Wenche's turn to pick a theme and she has chosen "Black and Blue" and we are being sponsered by a brand new sponser company Heartsong Designs
And they are offering us a fabulous prize of 3 digi stamps and this is what they say about themselves:-

Heart Song Designs offers hand drawn digital stamp images perfect for all your papercrafting needs. We offer a variety of images from elegant to super cute. Come visit us at www.heartsongdesignsshop.com and find digis that make your heart sing.

And we were lucky enough to be given several images to play with and this is my card for the Challenge.
And I chose to use this Air Balloon for my card and have printed it onto white card then used my copic and tria pens to colour it, I then used my circle Nestabilitie Die to cut it out and then used the crown circle die for the mount. The sentiment are the words from the very popular "Up, up and away" song from the 70s and Ive printed it onto white card and then mounted it onto blue pearlescent card.
The base card is a 6"x 6" white card and Ive have used several papers from my stash, the first one is a blue background with white diamonds on, then on top is a blue and black stripe and the third is a black background with white spots, and the last mount is a square with a star paper pattern on.
The mounted image was then positioned in the centre with the sentiment at the bottom on the right hand side. To finish of I have stuck three buttons with bakers twine threaded through the holes that has been knotted, arranged down the left hand side.
Now that youve seen my card I do hope that you will pop across to Cards for Men Challenge Blogspot and see what the rest of the design team has created for your inspiration and I do hope you will then decide to take part in it.
This card is to be entered in the following Challenges:-
