--------------------

I have used this fun digi image of a cat enjoying himself at a party, and the sentiment is also one from Meljen, I printed them onto white card and coloured him with my copic pens, I then cut him out with a circle die and used a scalloped one for the mount, Ive done a similar thing with the sentiment but used a rectangle one for this one.

The base card is a 6"x 6" white card with a first mount of red card and one of four papers from Summer Driggs Free Downloads "Freedom aint Free" the first one is grey/black base with fireworks all over it, the second one is a beige background with spots on and this was mounted on a red mount, the third a blue one this was also mounted in the same way and the last is a stripe one with dotted lines and stars on, but Ive used a parcel border punch on this and it was stuck down the right hand side.

On top of this my mounted image was placed towards the left hand side at the top and the sentiment at the bottom on the right. I have also used glossy accents on the balloons and my sakura glitter pen on the rest of the shinny bits.

I do so hope you will pop over to the Cards for Men Challenge Blog and see the fabulous cards my fellow Design Team have created for you, and then hopefully it will inspire you to take part in this fortnights Challenge.
