ODBD Surprise Box

I had great fun creating this Our Daily Bread Designs (ODBD) Surprise Box.  It took hours for me to complete, but it was so worth it as it is for my precious granddaughter.  The box is not for her birthday, as it may indicate.  It is a reminder to celebrate life.  Our lives can change in a split second and make you realize how important it is to celebrate life and your loved ones.

This week’s Splitcoaststamper’s Tuesday Color Challenge is hosted by Jeanne.  She selected the color combination of SU Flirty Flamingo, Bermuda Bay, and So Saffron, with a dessert option of balloons.  These colors are a beautiful combination!

Joshua 10:12-14

“On the day the Lord gave the Amorites over to Isreal, Joshua said to the Lord in the presence of Isreal:  “O sun, stand still over Gibeon, O moon, over the Valley of Aijalon.”  So the sun stood still, and the moon stopped, till the nation avenged itself on its enemies, as it is written in the Book of Jashar.  The sun stopped in the middle of the sky and delayed going down about a full day.  There has never been a day like it before or since, a day when the Lord listened to a man.  Surely the Lord was fighting for Isreal!”

Heartfelt Creations Simply Classic

It is time for another color challenge on Splitcoaststampers.  Karen is our hostess for this week’s challenge, and she gave us a color combination of Blushing Bride, Mint Macaron, and Very Vanilla.  Her dessert is “vintage”.  These are perfect colors for a vintage card.

My card features the Heartfelt Creations Simply Classic vintage truck.  It is filled with lovely dogwood flowers and sits in the driveway near a window of a large brick house.

Hebrews 2:1-4

“We must pay more careful attention, therefore, to what we have heard, so that we do not drift away.  For if the message spoken by angels was binding, and every violation and disobedience received its just punishment, how shall we escape if we ignore such a great salvation?  This salvation, which was first announced by the Lord, was confirmed to us by those who heard him.  God also testified to it by signs, wonders and various miracles, and gifts of the Holy Spirit distributed according to his will.”

Penny Black Crimson Blush Rose

Welcome to Guneaux Designs!  I love the Penny Black Crimson Blush Rose stamp, and I am featuring it on my card today.  I stamped the rose image with Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto a piece of Neenah Solar White cardstock.  Using Copic Sketch Markers, I blended shades of light to dark pink alcohol ink onto the roses, and shades of green onto the leaves.  Afterward, I used a dark pink Prismacolor pencil to add more color to enhance the image.  Then I blended the pencil coloring with Gamsol.

1 John 3:11-15

“This is the message you heard from the beginning:  We should love one another.  Do not be like Cain, who belonged to the evil one and murdered his brother.  And why did he murder him?  Because his own actions were evil and his brother’s were righteous.  Do not be surprised, my brothers, if the world hates you.  We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love our brothers.  Anyone who does not love remains in death.  Anyone who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life in him.”

Mary is our hostess for this week’s Color Challenge on Splitcoaststampers.  She gave us a beautiful color combination of SU Dapper Denim, Tangerine Tango, and Sahara Sand.  Her dessert option is to use SU Soft Suede.  I used all of the colors, or colors closely related, on my card.

Revelation 3:11-13

“I am coming soon.  Hold on to what you have, so that no one will take your crown.  Him who overcomes I will make a pillar in the temple of my God.  Never again will he leave it.  I will write on him the name of my God and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which is coming down out of heaven from my God; and I will also write on him my new name.  He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.”

SERENE SILHOUETTES

Hello, and welcome back, or welcome if this is your first time to this site.  Do you remember the old Stampin’ Up! stamp set, Serene Silhouettes?  I call the stamp set “old” because it is more than five years old.  I created my Serene Silhouettes card for a Splitcoaststampers Clean and Simple Challenge (CAS) to create a project that includes birds.  Because the card needed to be CAS, I searched for a simple image of a bird or birds, and this set is the one I found in my stash of older stamps.

Ephesians 2:1-3

“As for you, you were dead in your transgressions and sins, in which you used to live when you followed the ways of this wold and the ruler of the kingdom of the air [Satan], the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobedient.  All of us also lived among them at one time, gratifying the cravings of our sinful nature and following its desires and thoughts.  Like the rest, we were by nature objects of wrath.”

♥TUTORIAL FOR A POP UP VALENTINE♥

Hello, friends!!  Today I have for you a tutorial for a pop up valentine.  I made this valentine card in response to a Splitcoastampers’ challenge to create a pop up card.  I rarely make such a card, and I had to do a lot of experimenting to make this one as  I did not have, or could not find, a tutorial that I liked when making mine.  I knew what I wanted to create, so I set out to accomplish a pop up card using Hero Arts Nesting Hearts Infinity Dies.  Here is the front of my card.

John 17:22-23

Jesus Prays for All Believers:  “I have given them the glory that you [God] gave me, that they may be one as we are one:  I in them and you in me.  May they be brought to complete unity to let the world know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.”
