Happy Birthday Andrew

I had the Cricut out for this card I made for my son Andrew's birthday last month.

I purchased a digi image set for the Crisut and resized and cut the pieces in cream, grey and black Bazzill cardstock. The background paper is from Basic Grey's Basics collection. From red card I made a card blank and matted the chess board. 

Each of the little black squares had to be stuck down individually, but the cream board has little score marks to help make positioning easy and accurate.
The greeting is from Crafter's Compainon and cut in silver miri board.
To finish I added a few shiny black gems. 

Happy Birthday Andrew!

Thanks for Looking
