The Daily Paper prompt for this one was games. I love playing games! I hate chess! So why did I make a chess related project? I think because I love the checkerboard pattern. When I started quilting, my first project and checkerboard sashing between the blocks and I continue to be attracked to checkerboard type design in quilts and artwork.
There's nothing fancy about this, but I like the way it came out. Once again, though, I didn't have patience. I wanted to add the check-mate stencil (I cut the stencil out on the Silhouette) so I quickly dried my piece with an iron before I stenciled with acrylic. There must have still been some moisture in the mixed media because the black paint started to color the white acrylic that I used for the word. It wasn't too bad but it could have ruined it. I have to be patient!
