Heartfelt Creations Happy Time Treehouse

Hello, my friends!  I hope you had a great weekend!  Today I have for you a card I made featuring the Heartfelt Creations Happy Time Treehouse.  I created the card in response to a Splitcoaststampers challenge to “Hug an Australian!” in celebration of Hug an Australian Day that falls on April 26 each year.

 

Proverbs 12:18-22

“A truthful witness gives honest testimony, but a false witness tells lies.  Reckless words pierce like a sword, but the tongue of the wise brings healing.  Truthful lips endure forever, but a lying tongue lasts only a moment.  There is deceit in the hearts of those who plot evil, but joy for those who promote peace.  No harm befalls the righteous, but the wicked have their fill of trouble.  The Lord detests lying lips, but he delights in men who are truthful.”

Penny Black Tulip Bouquet Card

Hello!!  Welcome to Guneaux Designs!  My card share today features a new stamp from Penny Black; the Penny Black Tulip Bouquet.  I created the card to submit to today’s color challenge at Splitcoaststampers.com.  The hostess for the color challenge selected the Stampin’ Up! (SU) colors of Tranquil Tide, Sweet Sugarplum, and Rich Razzleberry.  This week’s dessert option is to make a one-layer card.  My card is a one-layer card and I used Copic sketch markers closely related to the color combination to color the Penny Black Tulip Bouquet image on my card.

 

Psalm 34:11-16

“Come, my children, listen to me; I will teach you the fear of the Lord.  Whoever of you loves life and desires to see many good days, keep your tongue from evil and your lips from speaking lies.  Turn from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it.  The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous and his ears are attentive to their cry; the face of the Lord is against those who do evil, to cut off the memory of them from the earth.”

Heartfelt Creations Flowering Dogwood Collection

Today’s color challenge on Splitcoaststampers is to use the Stampin’ Up! colors of Daffodil Delight, Pink Pirouette, and Old Olive.  I created an Easter card for the challenge using the Heartfelt Creations Flowering Dogwood Collection.

John 19:16-19

“Finally Pilate handed him [Jesus] over to them to be crucified.  So the soldiers took charge of Jesus.  Carrying his own cross, he went out to the place of the Skull (which in Aramaic is called Golgotha).  Here they crucified him, and with him two others—one on each side and Jesus in the middle.  Pilate had a notice prepared and fastened to the cross.  It read:  JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS.”

Crimson Blush Stamp by Penny Black

Hello, my special friends.  Thank you so much for stopping by Guneaux Designs.  I have for you today a card featuring the Crimson Blush Stamp by Penny Black.  This stamp is fantastic and there are so many possibilities for its use.  I must admit that I hesitated to purchase it though as I was not confident enough to color a rose.  This stamp took away that fear.  I love the stamp!!!  This is one of the cards I created with the stamp.

 

Hebrews 11:1-3

“Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.  This is what the ancients were commended for.  By faith we understand that the universe was formed at Gods command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible.”

Penny Black The Bunch!

Hello, my friends!!  Thanks for stopping by.  I have not posted many cards this year and I want to explain why.  I was asked, and I accepted, to become a member of the Splitcoaststampers (SCS) Dirty Dozen last December.  I began my duties as a member in January, which is designing cards for SCS following themes.  One of the rules for new members of the Dirty Dozen (DD) is that any card you make for the DD monthly themes cannot be posted anywhere for six months, except on SCS.

To that end, I have been creating cards, and if you are a “club member” of SCS, you can see the cards when they go live, which is on the 15th of each month.  If not a club member, you will be able to see them here on my site after the six-month period expires.

Now, on to Penny Black The Bunch! card I created.  The Penny Black image on my card is from a stamp set newly released.  When I saw the new stamp, I had to have it as I think the image is darling, and it will serve as a great card for my three-year old granddaughter.  Don’t you just love the look on her face?  She looks so sweet!

1 Thessalonians 5:16

“Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.”

Penny Black Spontaneous Joy

Hello, my friends!  I have been unavailable because of an illness, and today I am feeling better and wanted to get to my craft room and create.  The card I created features the beautiful and new Penny Black Spontaneous Joy stamp.  I submitted this card for this week’s Inspiration and Color Challenges on Splitcoaststampers.  I selected the two mentioned challenges to get my creative juices flowing again.  You can see all the wonderful comments made on my card by clicking HERE.

1 Thessalonians 5:12-15

“Now we ask you, brothers, to respect those who work hard among you, who are over you in the Lord [emphasis added] and who admonish you.  Hold them in the highest regard in love because of their work.  Live in peace with each other.  And we urge you, brothers, warn those who are idle, encourage the timid, help the weak, be patient with everyone.  Make sure that nobody pays back wrong for wrong, but always try to be kind to each other and to everyone else.”
