Penny Black Snowy Hamlet

Penny Black Snowy Hamlet

Welcome back, my special friends!  Today I have a card for you that features the Penny Black Snowy Hamlet stamp.  I created this card to respond to an inspiration challenge on Splitcoaststampers.  This is the site the hostess chose for us to draw inspiration from.  The following photos are of my card and inspiration piece.


Luke 22:42&43

When Jesus went to the garden at the Mount of Olives to pray before being arrested, he prayed in anguish and said: 

“Father, if you are willing, take this cup from me; yet not my will, but yours be done.”  An angel from heaven appeared to him and strengthened him.  And being in anguish, he prayed more earnestly, and his sweat was like drops of blood falling to the ground.”

Did you know that God has assigned each believer an angel who will come to strengthen us when we are feeling weak?  Just pray and ask God to send an angel to strengthen you.

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.”

Crimson Blush Stamp by Penny Black

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.”

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.”
