Phindy's Friday Challenge #14 - got the blues

Good morning!  It's Friday morning and the end of another week - but nearly the start of the weekend - hooray!  Of course, Friday means it's also time for another Phindy's Place Friday Challenge and this week we have the blues.  Blue is my favourite colour, whether it's denim, aqua, pastel, navy and we'd like you to use some blue in your project this week.

I've chosen the adorable and elegant Contentment image from Phindy's Place for my card, you can also buy an African American version of this image from Phindy.
My image is coloured with Copics and I've put a picture style frame around it before adding it to my card.  My card is based on the Card Patterns' Challenge sketch this week and as it it quite a patchwork card I've added some "quilting" stitches to it.  Dare U2 Digistamp has Stitching as its challenge this week,  so I'm also entering their challenge.  DP is Papermania, the threads across the card are hand-dyed from my stash, I've used tiny jeweller's tags for the "boy" sentiment.    Hope you like my card, so be sure to go and look at the amazing cards that the DT has made.
