My couple, Matt and Amy, have been married for 5 years and today is their anniversary. They wanted to return to the spot of their first kiss, remembering it as though it was just yesterday. Today is as special to them as it was over 5 years ago.

When I saw the arbor pictured, I immediately thought "Tunnel of Love". The scene is set as a 60's park ride. The boat is hand made out of thin wood. I was lucky to find a posable 60's dressed couple to journey into my tunnel. I kit bashed the arbor by cutting it in half and adding an extension from the leftover wood from the punch out board. I needed the extra width to make the arbor look like a tunnel. I also cut off the bottom of the arbor to make it shorter for the water channel. It is covered in leather-like fabric.The flowers in the arbor are made of paper punches that I learned from a tutorial posted from a member. This is my first contest I have ever entered and I really enjoyed making my entry.
