Turtley Awesome Birthday Card

Hello all, I am back again to share with you a fun tunnel card featuring the At Ease Stamp Set from Crafty Stamp Co. This fun stamp set includes six adorable turtles, four fish, and three sentiment options. It is such a cute set with soooo many possibilities.


I have been wanting to make a tunnel card for awhile and these sea turtles are so cute, I just knew they would make a great match.

I began by selecting four shades of blue cardstock. I decided that I wanted the darkest color in the back for visual depth,  but you could reverse the colors so it would look like you were in a cave or at the bottom of the ocean looking out toward the light. Either option works.

After cutting my tunnel pieces, I stamped and heat embossed my sentiment on the top piece of cardstock. Next, I attached the tunnel layers to my cardbase using foam adhesive between each layer to provide lots of dimension.

I then stamped, cut, and colored my two sea turtles and three fish. Next, I die cut a handful of brightly colored coral from paper in my scrap bin. I always go to my scrap bin first when I have something small that I want to die cut.

Now that I had all of my components, I was able to glue everything in place. I finished the card by adding a few white enamel dots to represent air bubbles… just for fun.
