I did this card for this week's sketch challenge and the WT challenge. That pleating was a bear! I had to staple my pleats to keep them together and this card weighs a bunch. I am going to send it in for the compassionate cards drive for August (btw - consider sending some in too - you can find the details at: Forums at Splitcoaststampers ) and I think I will send some stamps with it too.
This is one of my oldest stamps but it still looks great.

How pretty is that image with your coloring! Stunning card. Yeah, I finally got around to stamping those images! Hard to believe, I know. Now I just have to get them to the PO post haste!

Nancy, I just finished reading the link about FOP. I had no idea. What a wonderful thing to send encouragement to others! This card is very touching and I love the symbolism of the wing. Your work will be a blessing. Thanks so much for sharing. BYH (bless your heart, it's a new one!) LYMI!
