You're Sweet Honey

Hello crafty friends, and welcome back! Today I’m sharing a fun new card project for Dare 2B Artzy featuring the Sweet as Honey stamp set and coordinating dies. To complement the bee and honey theme, I also incorporated the Hexagon Nestables die set for a sweet honeycomb-inspired design. To begin, I created a top-folding card base from Neenah 110 lb. Solar White cardstock, cutting it to 4¼” x…

You're Sweet Honey

I had fun making bridge cards today. They're so impressive and actually very easy! I love this paper with such beautiful scenery. It looks like a little meditation oasis! This was for a weekly challenge from Karen at @stampingonthebackporch #stampingonthebackporch #bridgecard https://www.instagram.com/p/CZnDQ0lpBs8/?utm_medium=tumblr

Bridge the Game is The Game to Play

We do not stop playing bridge because we grow old. We grow old because we stop playing bridge 

If you have been playing cards since time immemorial then this is not the time to stop. Playing cards as in the game of bridge will keep you on your toes for a very long time, even at this difficult time for all game playing people who are having to keep a safe distance and be vigilant about socialising in a safe environment.

There are some character traits of people who are adept (let's leave out the professional bridge playing gurus, although it still applies to these top echelons of a select few) at the game of bridge.

Think of Attila the Hun or Dolores the Dummy at the Bridge Table   

Appearances can be deceiving in all sectors of game playing people, but one needs to be able to identify certain characteristics to select a partner or tactically play at the bridge table. These characteristics can be cultivated and implemented to ensure you and your partnership can improve.  Traits can be learned – follow the leaders.

 ·        Resourcefulness

Don't think outside the box. Think like there is no box, or even what you can do with the box. You have to be able to think and plan your way out of a tricky situation. Think creatively and generally it works – within limits of course. You can’t call 6NT on a whim – but perhaps you can defeat creatively if your opponents happen to call it.

·        Be Fair and Reasonable

There is nothing worse than a Cruella Deville at the bridge table who all her life has played her cards badly. Admit wrongs and know the rules and don’t throw your toys around, particularly out of the bridge-playing cot!

·        Show initiative – be inventive if you have to

Embrace creativity and versatility in your bridge skills.  How often have you been defeated by a person who plays her cards differently and thinks differently in everyday life?  Don’t be afraid of taking that initiative that very often lies dormant in a lot of us – particularly when we freeze at the bridge table when a difficult hand arises.

·        Display a good level of confidence and self-assurance

Cultivate poise and then show it. Don’t become Colin Cock of the Hoop, but command a respectable level of assurance – it will help you and keep the opponents around the bridge table on their toes. Timidity and hesitation at the bridge table is a sure spoiler.

·        Be kind and considerate – the game of bridge is about partnerships

No need to be an angel with a pack of cards in her hand, but most good bridge players are respective to their partners and their opponents. Learn tact – because if you can't be tactful you won't find a decent partner and your bridge playing career will be cut short. Word gets around fast so no matter how well you play the game; you won't last long at the club or social circle. 

Remember that nobody gets very far in life, let alone playing cards if they burn their bridges.
