Hello Crafty Friends! Today, I am sharing an oval shaped tunnel card featuring the wonderful Fintastic Friends!
To start, I cut four pieces of white cardstock into the following sizes
A. 1 x (7”x 6”) – front of card, scored at .25” and 1.25” on both right and left side
B. 1 x (4.5” x 6”) – middle, scored at .25” on both right and left side
C. 1 x (4.5” x 6”) – middle, scored at .25” on both right and left side
D. 1 x ( 4” x 6” ) – back of card
I ink blended A with Salvaged Patina and Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide ink. I ink blended B with Mermaid Lagoon and Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink and C with Salty Ocean and Mermaid Lagoon Distress Oxide Ink. I splattered each piece with water and some Salvage Patina mixed with a few drops of water.
I used the three largest ovals in Stitched Oval 2 Dies to make the oval die cut in the center of A, B, and C.
I scored A, B, and C according to the measurements listed above and used a bone folder to make the creases.
I colored the following; sea friends and ocean plants from Fintastic Friends Stamp and Best Fishes Stamps, beach chair from Kiddie Pool Stamps, and the yummy drink from Tiki Time Stamps with Copic Markers and die cut all the images with the coordinating dies.

For the background, I added blue and green alcohol ink onto alcohol ink cardstock and used an alcohol ink blower to move the ink around the cardstock. Once dried, I trimmed the cardstock to 4” x 6.”
I adhered the sea friends and plants onto B and C and added double-sided tape onto the scored areas.
I then adhered B and C onto A starting with the right hand side and then the left.
For the background, I adhered the octopus and plants onto the alcohol ink cardstock. I added double sided tape onto the outer score lines of A. I folded the edges, removed the tape, and adhered the alcohol ink background. I then adhered D onto the back of the card.
I finished off the card by adding a white heat embossed sentiment and bubbles from Oceans Of Joy Stamps along with a cute shark relaxing with a drink.
Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day!

Love it! That shark in the lawn chair with a tropical drink may be the most clever twist on mixing sets I’ve seen. It’s beyond wonderful!💙💙💙🦈🍹
