3 D Tunnel Box Card with Satin Rattail cord stitching!

Hello everyone!

Happy Thursday!

This time I came up with creating a 3 D card Box style, so much fun! I decided to try a tunnel box card the first time......partially a card inside this, tunnel style 3 D effect! And I was surprised by how easy it came together.

The precious birds have captured my eyes and how pretty she looks!

Inside the tunnel: Its uniqueness lies in placing the entire composition in a frame!

I started with die cutting some leaves. tiny flowers, twigs out of a bright white CS and watercolored them all. I mixed and match a lot of different dies here to decorate my scene.

I stamped the sweet images of birds in jet black ink and quickly heat embossed them with clear gloss EP for the shine. I watercolored my images using ZIG brushes and fussy cut them all. Added some details with a white gel pen.

I die cut a window blind panel for my inside tunnel panel and added it to my scored white panel as shown in the below pics.

I used adhesive tape so there was no drying time involved either,

For the front panel, I die cut a window blind panel 2 times adhered them together for more thickness. Now simply added satin rattail cord in green color hues as shown in the below pics.

Now I added this front panel to the tunnel box card front. Added all the elements like a bird, flowers, leaves. Finished it off with rub-on transfer sentiment and some hearts.

To accentuate the three dimensional I applied branches and leaves with double-sided adhesives. The nice thing about this card is that it can be folded like a normal card and therefore it can also be can conveniently be enveloped.

I hope you enjoyed this project and you too will soon make your own Tunnel Box card.

Happy crafting!
