Game night

Do you love to play games? Our family does a lot of it's communication when we sit down together and play a game. My dad and I visit around a competitive game of cribbage. We will sometimes invite other families over to our house for a "game" night....I thought these would make fun invites!
I am LOVING this new scrapblock from CHF "Crossword". I love that I can make it any color I want! Instead of my crossword being black I stamped it in aqua ink over the fun new "garden variety" paper from Cosmo Cricket. I played up the black and white theme from a crossword into the letters...they just jump off the page....I love that!
Gotta have dinner too! The sweet little oven is from the Kim Hughes Collection "Baked with Love" and I covered some dinner themed chipboard with patterned paper too.

Here are some of the "copic" details I wanted to point out.
I added the same B02 marker from my oven towel around the perimeter of my chipboard. I also didn't have an "N" so I stole one from another letter set and used my marker to make it black.
I colored my oven with a series of grays....C00, C3, C5.

Here are all the card deets:
