Card Design: Imagine That...Progressive Challenge for October

My goodness, I was really hoping to have created and posted some of my progressive challenge cards already this month but time just hasn't been on my side.  Of course, I lost quite a bit with the infection and fall but progressive challenges don't wait and it is time to upload at least one of them today.  

Right now it is my creation for the Imagine That Progressive Challenge. This wonderful progressive challenge does not disappoint as we get the opportunity to earn a fabulous new set each month by linking up. Kris' is an amazing designer and I am thrilled to earn sets from her.

This month the images that everyone who is part of the progressive challenge gets to play with are in the wonderful set, Let's Squash Cancer in honour of Breast Cancer Awareness month...

The great thing about this image is that it could be used for all types of cancer.  It isn't just limited to breast cancer.

As always, you can work with either the coloured image, or the line art one. This particular set also comes with four great sentiments to help you out!  If you missed out, you can still play along by purchasing this set in the store for a discount during the month of October (click on the image name or watermark above to go to the image's location in the store).

Here are my card and details, I hope I haven't forgotten anything important...

• This is one of those cards that I hope and pray I never have to mail.
