Christmas Tunnel Card

This month the fun fold challenge with Canadian Die Cut Exchange Group was to make a Tunnel Card.  I checkout several tutorials on You Tube and ended up using the tutorial by Dawn O here

I wanted to make this Tunnel card a Christmas card, and ended up using 3 different stamp sets: Night of Bethlehem, Wise Men from Afar, and Star of Light, as well as 1 set of framelits:  Starlight Thinlets.



This is the front of the card. Images from Night of Bethlehem are white embossed on Night of Navy card stock.

This 4 by 5 1/4" piece of Night of Navy card stock is adhered to the card base, which is Whisper White card stock. When you open the card.....











...there is a tunnel in the center.

The Night of Navy inner part of the card has the same measurements as the card base and is scored at 2 1/8, 4 1/4, and 2 1/8" (turn paper).  In the center I die cut an oval using the layering ovals framelits.


Images from "Wisemen from Afar" and Night of Bethlehem are White Embossed on this inner panel.

This inner panel is adhered to the Whisper White card base at both edges only.




In the center of the oval, on the card base, a sentiment from "Wisemen from Afar" was stamped in Night of Navy Ink.

Then I suspend a die cut star d from the top of the oval with a fishing line.










Here's a side view of the card.


















This is a very easy fold to make an I hope to make many more.
