CTS #391 Game on, Stampin Up Birthday Card

I made this card for the challenge at:

CAS(E) This Sketch

 

I got this crazy notion in my head that I could 

make a checker/chess board by weaving 

strips of black and red paper together. 

I was quite wrong.  It turned out to be a paper basket.  

My hands were already in bad shape from the nerve conduction

test today, but after the weaving of the papers, they locked up

on me.  So this is the best I could come up with for this evening.  

The stamp set featured in this card is:

Stampin Up:  Game On

My dear son in law tried to teach me chess, 

but I just couldn't get it.  I'm more of a card 

player.  Like Uno, or speed.  Which is so much 

fun to play with my daughter.  We both carrying on quite 

a bit.  Lots of laughing, and gasping at who can lay 

the cards down the fastest.  It's a great time.  

Chess is very serious. Perhaps that's why I'm no good at it. 

Tonight because of my hands it would have been lovely had

this set come with matching dies.  But instead I 

fussy cut out the chess pieces.   

  Thank you for stopping by for a visit.

Keep Smiling and Keep Stamping
