KNIGHT not NIGHT and a COLOR challenge

Hello everyone! It's Monday again and time for another CCEE challenge. This week is the Catchy Name Featured Stamper challenge--where we select a person who has a "catchy" sign-on name on Splitcoaststampers and make cards for him and her based on that name.

This week Frances chose Jessie Rone (Knightrone). So, we had to make a card with a "KNIGHT" not a "Night" (as I was told many many times)! Giggle. No problem!

Here is my card:

Double points---because I have lots of "knight"s on my card and it is at night! (Just covering all the bases here!) Nanner, nanner, nanner girls---they were all waiting for me to mess this one up!

I used Kim Hughes' adorable Twinks the Owl for the main image and set him on a die cut flourish with the moon behind him. I typed out the bottom of the card on my computer interchanging "Night" and "Knight". I used the fabulous Harmony Rectangular Stamper Set from JustRite and the Brayton Font for the sentiment. I love how I can customize any card with this thing. Cannot wait to get my hands on the new vertical stamper so I can make sentiments along the side! You can find lots of JustRite products at Stamper's Dream (and at great prices too!)

You can see all the other fabulous KNIGHT cards on the CCEE BLOG!
