Knightrone!

Happy Monday everyone!

Once upon a time there were a group of 8 stampers who called themselves the CCEE Stampers ...... hehehehehe ..... I just had to do that!

Well as you know Monday's mean challenge time with my other CCEE Stamper friends and this week we have another CNFS (Catchy Name Featured Stamper) challenge ... this is one of my favorite challenges that we do each month as someone selects the name of somebody over on SCS who has a Catchy User name. We then create our cards around their name and send them the card. This month it is my turn to pick someone. Can you guess who it is hehe!

Yeap you guessed right! It is Knightrone aka Jessie Rone. For this challenge the instructions were that we must use something to do with KNIGHT's not nights on our card.

For my card I actually CASED a card I created a number of years back for a friend. The inspiration for that card came from something I saw in a Stampers Sampler mag and I knew as soon as I saw it that I had to figure out how to make something similar. This isn't a card I would want to make too often as it has numerous complicated cuts & folds in it, but I did enjoy doing this one for Jessie.

This time round I did update my card a little by using a different Knight & Princess ... these are one of the Doodle Factory stamps by Starving Artistamps.


Don't forget to visit our CCEE Stampers blog to see what the other girls came up with this week. You can also see the details on how you can play in this challenge if you wish.
