First time I ever tied a fly. This one swings. It's a tri-fold card. When opened, one sees a river scene and the fish, leaping for a red, foiled heart that says, "Get well soon". Another sentiment, made with a label maker reads,"The Metolius awaits". This is a requested card from a friend whose husband is going in for heart surgery.

A fly, how very clever. Tri-folds are fun, but I make them so rarely that usually I forget which panel to cut the aperture in and end up having to di it twice. This will be a great card for your friend's husband.

Nicely done on tying that fly and that open mouthed fish image is just the best! I can just imagine the lure floating back & forth over your aperture enticing him to grab on.
