Card Design: Deedee's Digi of the Month Challenge...November

Progressive Freebie Challenge!
Hello and happy Thursday evening to you.  I posted a Thanksgiving themed freebie a little earlier and now I'm posting my project for the Digi of the Month Challenge taking place over at Deedee's Digis.

In order to enter the progressive challenge, you must either have received the latest image by having participated in the previous month or you can buy the stamp for the current month's challenge.  Everyone who enters and follows the rules is a winner because you automatically get the stamp for the next month's challenge.  Stop by the site and check out the rules for yourself.  Be sure to check out the store while you are there too.  Currently there are a few sets available for free and of course there are some wonderful ones available for purchase in the store.

Right now it is time to check out the awesome set participants got to work with this month...



Polar Peace is a fab set perfect for any Christmas creations.  As always, Deedee's sets come with both outline and coloured versions to provide you with incredible variety and sentiments to help you out as well.  If you did not participate in last month's challenge, you can still purchase this set for just $1.25 during the month of November at the store or get it for free with any $10.00 purchase (check blog for more details). You can find it in the store HERE.

As you can see, this month's set offered FOUR different awesome images to choose from.  As soon as I saw the star image and the "to-from' sentiment, I knew exactly what I wanted to make.  

Here are my tag and the details...

Oh Hana Banana!  I need to get off my butt and get working FAST.  With only two days left in the month and three progressive challenges to go, along with getting a winner announcement post put together for on of the Teams I am on done by the end of today, getting a Design Team duty card and post put together for another Team on the 31st, plus making a special Hallowe'en freebie, AND two posts for one of my challenge blogs for the first of the month and another for the second, I'd say I'm going to need a miracle or six to pull it off.  As I see it, I believe a marathon typing and card making session is in order.  Oy vey, how do I get myself into these things?!  

Anyway, right now I'm posting my project for the Digi of the Month Challenge taking place over at Deedee's Digis.
