A Technique Challenge!

Good morning everyone and welcome to our CCEE Stamper blog. Are you ready for another challenge!

This week our challenge hostess Charlene Merrick has given us a technique challenge .... most of us enjoy technique challenge! This week the technique is to create a Tri Shutter card. This was actually a technique challenge over on SCS a few week's back TLC221, however as Charlene didn't get around to creating one then she decided to include it in this month's challenge. You will find a great tutorial by Bonnie Szwalkiewicz here.

So are you going to play along this week??? All you need to do is to create a tri shutter card that . Once you have created your card/project come back here and place a comment with a link to your card/project to this post so that we can see what you created. If you upload your card/project to SCS don't forget to include the keyword CCEEC. As this was also a technique challenge a few weeks back over on SCS you may also wish to include the keyword TLC221 if you upload it to SCS. We can't wait to see what you create!

OK now it i s time to check out what the CCEE Stampers created this week.

    LOL at Cindy-the-cat. What gorgeous cards they all are, and I didn't even get my early morning look at them as DH was getting up late, so I did too. Looking forward to another chance to try this, always easier second time round when you have a feel of what will work.

    Great cards and I have to admit I feel the same as Cindy when it comes to techniques! That's why I 'neglected' to try the slice and dice when it was posted on SCS. However, you've convinced me to give it a whirl. A few paper cuts and a dozen refolds later, I present Cat’s Creation.

    I finally made it along. It was meant to be easier second time round, I thought!

    There's a closed photo in the gallery too...
    At least that's DH's birthday card done and dusted while he havers about what he would actually like as a present!

    I still have not tried one of these cards yet and I love the way they look. Yours are all wonderful!!

    Cindy, that CAT scared me more than the technique would!! (But I am not generally a tekkie!! lol)
