Penny Black Crimson Blush Rose

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.”

AI WC Dogs Set

AI WC Dogs Set

Did you have a good weekend?  I hope so.  Have you seen the new 2018 release from Art Impressions?  Art Impressions (AI) released multiple watercolor sets like the AI WC Dogs Set.  The little doggies are so cute.  I used the set along with some AI floral and bench sets to stamp and watercolor the image on this card.


Titus 2:11-14

“For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men.  It teaches us to say “No” to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age while we wait for the blessed hope — the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good.”

Penny Black Tulip Bouquet Card

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 Young At Heart

Does this card bring back memories for you?  I created the card using the Heartfelt Creations Young At Heart collection, and it certainly brought back very happy moments for me.  I guess you have to be in your 50s or older for it to cause you to remember when you were “Young at Heart”.  LOL

I made the card to submit to last week’s Color Challenge on Splitcoaststampers.  I love the colors Karen Barber selected for the Color Challenge. They are SU Wild Wasabi, Powder Pink, So Saffron, and Soft Sky.  My card was selected as the Color Challenge Favorite on Splitcoaststampers!


Matthew 12:34-36

Jesus said: “You brood of vipers, how can you who are evil say anything good?  For out of the overflow of the heart the mouth speaks.  The good man brings good things out of the good stored up in him, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in him.”

Lighthouse Greeting Card

LIGHTHOUSE GREETING CARD

Hello, my friends, and thanks for stopping by to see my Lighthouse Greeting Card. Lighthouses have a special meaning to me and I love including them on my cards when possible.  Lighthouses to me are symbolic for the Word.

This Lighthouse Greeting Card was made in honor of the Featured Stamper for last week on Splitcoaststampers.  Sharon (aka shendrian) was the Featured Stamper, and I selected this gorgeous card of Sharon’s to case.  I love her red lighthouse and, therefore, I created a red one.

Isn’t the blue wavy panel gorgeous?  I created it with a We Are Memory Keepers Wave Embossing Folder and Hero Arts Salty Ocean Distress Oxide Ink.

The lighthouse image was made with an old Rubber Stampede, Thy Word is a Lamp stamp.  I love the stamp, and looked for it on line to link to my post.  Unfortunately, I could only find it on eBay or Etsy.

May the verse on the card bring you joy today!


Stamp:  Rubber Stampede, Thy Word is a Lamp

Paper: Neenah White

Ink: Salty Ocean Distress Oxide

Accessories: CottageCutz Double-Stitched Oval Dies, Prismacolor Pencils, Gamsol, Nuvo Crystal Drops, Water, Spritzer, Wave Embossing Folder, Sponge Dauber, Paper Piercing Tool, Foam Tape

“Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light for my path.  I have taken an oath and confirmed it, that I will follow your righteous laws.”

CottageCutz Jolly Snowman Heads Up

COTTAGECUTZ JOLLY SNOWMAN HEADS UP

Welcome!!  I have a card share for you today that should bring laughter for you!  My card is a CottageCutz Jolly Snowman Heads Up card.  This week on Splitcoaststampers.com, there is a Clean and Simple Challenge that is titled, “Head in the Clouds”.  The challenge hostess wanted to see creations around this theme.  I decided to take the challenge literally.  So my card features the CottageCutz Jolly Snowman with his head in the clouds attached by black thread to the snowman’s arm.  I thought a “Heads Up” sentiment would be appropriate.

I wanted a cloudy background for a snowy scene, thus I cut some card stock in scallops of various sizes and used that as a cloud template.  Using the template, I sponged on some blue Hero Arts Distress Oxide inks and spritzed the clouds with water to get the appearance of it snowing.

Subsequently, I cut some snowbanks, covered them with sparkly crystal granules, and attached them to the card base.

Enjoy the card, and let me know if it made you laugh!
