Handmade Silver and White Christmas Card

Welcome to Guneaux Designs, and thanks for stopping by!  I have for you a beautiful Handmade Silver and White Christmas Card!  A silver and white card is atypical for me, but I loved making this card and had great fun with it.  I created it for a Color Challenge on Splitcoaststampers.  The hostess for the challenge chose Silver and White OR Gold and White with sparkles as desert.  Obviously, I chose silver and white.

Hebrews 11:3

“By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God’s command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible.”

Hero Arts Monthly Kit Star Stamp

Happy Saturday!!  I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving if you live in the United States!  Thanksgiving is a lovely time of the year to stop regular activities and give thanks for our blessings.  I had a wonderful time with my family that I love so much!

I took time today to create a card for an Inspiration Challenge on Splitcoaststampers.  Every Saturday the hostess for the challenge selects a website from which to draw inspiration and create a paper project.  The site selected for today is The Company Store.  I selected THIS beautiful Star Wreath Holder as my inspiration piece.  Because of the upcoming holiday, Christmas, I immediately thought of the Star of Bethlehem when I saw this item.  My next thought was the star stamp within the Hero Arts Monthly Kit for November 2017.  Therefore, that star stamp image is the focal point of my card.

Matthew 2:1 & 2

“After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time of King Herod, Magi from the east came to Jerusalem and asked, “Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews?  We saw his star in the east and have come to worship him.”

Hero Arts My Monthly Kit for November 2017

Hero Arts monthly kit for November contains a lot a fantastic crafting products.  A photo  of the kit’s contents is below the photo of my card and scripture of my post.  Unfortunately, the kit sold out as fast as it was posted as being available.  But that is the norm for these kits.

I used the bulb stamp from the kit as the main feature for my card.  I stamped and decorated three of them for the card.

Matthew 22:37-40  (The Greatest Commandment)

“Jesus replied:  ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.  This is the first and greatest commandment.  And the second is like it:  Love your neighbor as yourself.  All the Law and Prophets hang on these two commandments.”

Sparkling Poinsettias

Every Saturday, the Splitcoaststampers site has an inspiration challenge.  Yesterday’s challenge showcased the Agraria San Francisco website.  I selected the Lavender and Rosemary group for my inspiration, and this is the card I made using the Heartfelt Creations Sparkling Poinsettias stamp and die.

I’m not sure that it can be seen in the above photo, but I started my card by stamping two Holly Strips with Golden Glitz Pigment Ink down the center of the lavender panel. This was to represent the strips of a gold design in this picture.  It is obvious in the photo below.

Matthew 12:25-28 (Jesus and Beelzebub, the Prince of Demons)

Jesus healed a demon-possessed blind and mute individual and was criticized by the Pharisees who said that Jesus could only cast out demons by Beelzebub, the prince of demons.  “Jesus knew their thoughts and said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself will be ruined, and every city or household divided against itself will not stand.  If Satan drives out Satan, he is divided against himself.  How then can his kingdom stand?  And if I drive out demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your people drive them out?  So then, they will be your judges.  But if I drive out demons by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.”

Make It Crafty Neve

Do you struggle with coloring with Copic Sketch Markers?  I sure do!  I have had a couple of classes but I still struggle.  However, I was determined to make this beautiful card by using Copic Sketch Markers and two digital stamps – Make It Crafty Neve and Make It Crafty Winter Hills Scene.

My card is for Mary’s color challenge on Splitcoaststampers.  The color combination for the challenge is Real Red, Cucumber Crush, and Marina Mist.  Her desert is Christmas.  I love this color combination, and it is perfect for Christmas!

Ephesians 2:8

“For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith – and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God – not by works, so that no one can boast.”
