Hero Arts Textured Leaves

Hello, special friends!  I hope that anyone impacted by Hurricane Michael has survived the horrific storm.  I was impacted with high winds and bands of drenching rain.  Thank God, my friends and family are OK.  Those who were significantly impacted are in my prayers.

I am sharing with you a card I made for two of this week’s challenges on Splitcoaststampers.  One is the Color Challenge and the other the Free For All Challenge.  The Color Challenge is to use the color combination of Stampin’ Up!’s Real Red, Garden Green, and So Saffron with “dessert” to use a stencil on a project.  The Free For All Challenge was simply to use a stencil on a project.  This is the card I created, and it features Hero Arts Textured Leaves stamps and matching dies.

1 Thessalonians 5:26-18

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

Hero Arts My Monthly Kit September 2018

This week’s color challenge on Splitcoaststampers includes the colors of Stampin’ Up! Pumpkin Pie, Old Olive, and Fresh Fig.  I used the Hero Arts My Monthly Kit September 2018 to create this card for the challenge.  The card features a Chinese Lantern image created with stamps from the kit.

Ephesians 5:15-17 & 19

“Be very careful, then, how you live — not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil.  Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord’s will is….  Speak to one another with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs.”

ODBD Old Rugged Cross

Hello, and thanks for stopping by Guneaux Designs!!  Today’s Splitcoaststampers “Ways to Use it Challenge” involves including music notes or instruments on cards, or to show the kind of music we love.  This challenge gave me the opportunity to showcase a recent stamp I purchased from Our Daily Bread Designs, the Old Rugged Cross.  My favorite music is old hymns.

Luke 23: 20-25 & 33

“Wanting to release Jesus, Pilate appealed to them again.  But they kept shouting, “Crucify him!  Crucify him!”  For the third time he spoke to them:  “Why?  What crime has this man committed?  I have found in him no grounds for the death penalty.  Therefore I will have him punished and then release him.”  But with loud shouts they insistently demanded that he be crucified, and their shouts prevailed.  So Pilate decided to grant their demand.  He released the man who had been thrown into prison for insurrection and murder, the one they asked for, and surrendered Jesus to their will. ….When they came to the place called the Skull, there they crucified him, along with the criminals — one on his right, the other on his left.”

Heartfelt Creations Botanical Rose Card

Hello, and welcome to Guneaux Designs!  I created a card a couple months ago for an Inspiration Challenge on Splitcoaststampers, but I never got it posted to this site until today.  The inspiration site selected for the challenge was Hayneedle.  I selected this as the inspiration piece for creating my Heartfelt Creations Botanical Rose Card.

2 Corinthians 4:18

“So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen.  For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal”

Chiseled Power Poppy Gerbera Daisies Digital Stamp

Hello and thanks for stopping by!  My card share is for the Splitcoaststampers Inspiration Challenge for today.  The hostess, Brenda (Benzi), selected this site that features gorgeous decorative flags.  I selected this flag for my inspiration because of the daisies.  I recently purchased Power Poppy’s Gerbera Daisies Digital Stamp and I wanted to use it on my card and submit it to Power Poppy’s Creative Confetti Challenge that was posted last Tuesday.  I will also enter the card for Back To Basics and Beyond Challenges – Challenge #12 Inky Backgrounds.

2 Corinthians 9:6 & 7

“Remember this:  Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously.  Each man should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.”

John 17:1-5 (Jesus Prays for Himself)

“After Jesus said this, he looked toward heaven and prayed: “Father, the time has come.  Glorify your Son, that your Son may glorify you.  For you granted him authority over all people that he might give eternal life to all those you have given him.  Now this is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.  I have brought you glory on earth by completing the work you gave me to do.  And now, Father, glorify me in your presence with the glory I had with you before the world began.”
