Blended Glass Bead Gel and Ink

Blended Glass Bead Gel and Ink

Hello and thanks for stopping by Guneaux Designs.  Today, I have a card for you that features stenciling, blending glass bead gel and ink, and sponging. The glass bead gel gives a raised effect on the card with tiny glass beads that sparkle.  Hopefully, you can see the sparkle.


John 20:27-29 (Jesus Appears to Thomas After His Resurrection)

“Then he said to Thomas, ‘Put your finger here; see my hands.  Reach out your hand and put it into my side.  Stop doubting and believe.’  Thomas said to him, ‘My Lord and my God!’  Then Jesus told him, ‘Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.’

Hero Arts MMH Kit May 2018

Hero Arts MMH Kit May 2018

Hello!  I am just sharing a card I made in May, and it features the Hero Arts MMH Kit May 2018.  The kit is wonderful as it is about young children and their swings, bikes, kites, and animals.  The kit is called “Tree of Life” because the primary products are related to trees.  I used the kit to create this card.


Revelation 3:8-10

I know your deeds.  See, I have placed before you an open door that no one can shut.  I know that you have little strength, yet you have kept my word and have not denied my name.  I will make those who are of the synagogue of Satan, who claim to be Jews though they are not, but are liars — I will make them come and fall down at your feet and acknowledge that I have loved you.  Since you have kept my command to endure patiently, I will also keep you from the hour of trial that is going to come upon the whole world to test those who live on the earth.”

United We Flourish Because We Are Better Together

Hi, my friends!  I hope you are having a wonderful Monday!   This card features the technique of blending alcohol inks and distress oxide inks, which fit the “Perfect Blend” theme of the Dirty Dozen monthly theme for fan club members.  My card features the stamps and dies set that Hero Arts made for Ellen Hutson as part of her United We Flourish Campaign. The stamp and die combo is called United We Flourish Because We Are Better Together, and it is an exclusive limited-edition stamp and die set for Ellen’s campaign.


1 John 3:16-20

“This is how we know what love is:  Jesus Christ laid down his life for us.  And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers.  If anyone has material possessions and sees his brother in need but has no pity on him, how can the love of God be in him?  Dear children, let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth.  This then is how we know that we belong to the truth, and how we set our hearts at rest in his presence whenever our hearts condemn us.  For God is greater than our hearts, and he knows everything.”

Gate Fold Card In The Shape Of A Star

Gate Fold Card In The Shape Of A Star

This Wednesday is Independence Day, July 4th, and I love cards made to celebrate the occasion.  This card is a gate fold card in the shape of a star.  I made the card for the Splitcoaststampers Dirty Dozen’s June Theme, “Keeping Score”, and it fits the theme in two ways.  One is the special card fold, and the other is the 20 strips on the card front in blue.



Revelations 3:20-22

“Here I am!  I stand at the door and knock.  If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and he with me.  To him who overcomes, I will give the right to sit with me on my throne, just as I overcame and sat down with my Father on his throne.  He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.”
