A note to say I ♥ U - a 3-Step Card

Hello.  Happy Monday!

It's time for another Mini Monday at Magnolia-licious and Wee Stamps Challenge Blog.  Mini Mondays are when a few of the Magnolia-licious DT gals are showcasing those adorable mini Magnolia images available from Magnolia-licious on-line store.  Visit the Magnolia-licious and Wee Stamps Challenge Blog to get the details on how you can get an extra 10% off when you purchase these minis.  And also to check out the fabulous cards of Patti Jo and Janiel who are joining me today in this Mini Monday #8.

So, this is my card...

 
I have made this into a three-step card with these pop-up steps in the inside of my card. 

 
I've tagled up the Tildas here a bit to spell out the I♥U...LOL.  (Thanks, Diana, for the intro to Zentangle.  I'm SLOWLY learning!) 
 
These are the Magnolia mini images that I have used:
 
 
- Mini Pie Tilda from the Mini Sweet Crazy Love Collection 2012 
 
 
- Mini Tilda With Winter Flowers from Mini Sweet Christmas Dreams Collection 2011
- Mini Tilda with Heart from Mini You Are So Special Collection 2011
- The 3rd mini Tilda with the rose--I'm not sure what they call this Tilda.  It is the mini stamp that is included free when you buy the MagnoliaINK Magazine #2 - 2013 Special Moments

Challenges I am entering with this card:
You, Me and Magnolia Challenge #11 - Anything Goes
Joanna Sheen Challenge - Spring into spring! (spring flowers)

    I love the design of the card, do you know of a tutorial anywhere on how to make this one? Or have you done one? I would love to make this card, but don't think I could do it without help! Please let me know if you know of one.
    THANKS
