This card I made for my good friend Lillian Abrams.. A new card I have never made before, but had so much fun doing it.. she actually loved it.. Used Tim Holtz paper, sewed all papers , used the open in the middle front style, used Tilda blowing glitter and tied it with ribbon on the side that held the card together. On the inside I used a mini birthday Tilda on one side and Valentine Tilda on the other side both attached on a Magnolia Doohicky tag that I used Saraha Sand Versa Magic to give it a vintage look. I made pockets on the sides of the card for the mini Tilda's to sit in.. and in the middle used Bubble blowing Tilda using extra bubbles. I water colored them an extra soft blue...and used crystal lacqure to give them that shiney look ... hope you enjoy it as well as I did making it.. will enjoy any comments on what I could have done to make it better.... Hugs, Jean
