Back to School Magnolia style...

 Needed a little girl "back to school" image and went with this image of "Tilda" from Magnolia who was holding a bird in a cage... altered it to make it more applicable.  The ABC image was stamped and then punched out - edges was colored with Distress Ink and then floated over the bird cage.  Made the card base a gate-fold, embossed lines with my Score-It and added DP from Basic Grey.  The same paper is layered on the inside.  Tilda was colored with Copics in primary colors.  A gold metal paperclip was added to enhance the "school" theme and a blue ribbon to mimic her bow and for added texture .

Here is a view of the fold and the interior...
