However, aesthetically, that would look unattractive, and a bit of 
padding might make things better:

on mouseUp
    set the width of this stack to ((the width of fld 1) + 10)
    set the height of this stack to ((the height of fld 1) + 10)
    set the loc of fld 1 to the loc of this card
end mouseUp

small difference in terms of code; big difference in terms of what the 
thing looks like.
