Take a Word Challenge #38 - Flight

My oldest granddaughter had her 13th birthday in May and I made this card for her.  It fits in to this week's challenge.  The background is by Lorie Davison as are the arms and hands.  The rest was painted by me.

    Lily is indeed luck to have you, and this card is a real keeper. I'm sure she will treasure it, and one day share it with her own little girl. Beautiful!

    Marie, I think Lily knows she has the very best Grandma ... who else would give such sound advice? Your card to her is beautifully whimsical and I'm sure she will treasure it for a long time.
