Made for the family of a young Marine killed 2 weeks ago in Afghanistan.
The red is symbolic of the red blood stripe down the leg of the Marine dress uniform, tan for the desert camo pattern of their utility uniform, and the black for eternal peace.
The center panel is up on dimensionals.

This is a wonderful card and you have made it with so much thoughtfulness! Very meaningful! Sad to hear we have lost yet another brave young man serving our country! Praying for his family during their loss!

This is beautiful. Cuttlebug just came out with the most awesome star folder that I believe compliments this stamp set perfectly. I just love this card.
