WIP

Leave a comment

We all have creative projects that don’t get finished right away. There are so many reasons that happens. Life gets in the way. We lose our creative motivation. Or we’re pondering; we just don’t know what the next step of that creation is to be. I’d been trucking right along on my makes inspired by Encounters in Colour last month, while also working on other creative projects, and new Courses to offer on this site. But this Work In Progress has had a Pause. I thought I knew exactly where it was going. Then that direction changed. Then I didn’t… Continue reading →

Love & Worship God

Have you ever had a Bible verse that you know well—you’ve memorized it, meditated on it for decades, and then a word changes in your mind? Love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ This is the first commandment. Deut. 6:5, Matt. 22:37, Mark 12:30, Luke 10:27 I know this verse inside out. It is a key verse for my life. I taught it to all my children. Yet, as I meditated on it to make this Faith+Art journal page, my mind kept saying worship, not love. In fact, I… Continue reading →

A New Name

Leave a comment

My mind is still meditating on and expanding my study on names, (based on my previous Bible Journaling page for the Great Shepherd & His sheep.) Thinking about how God calls me by name. How I know and hear His voice and follow it. To go a step deeper, to the name He gives me. John tells us, in Revelation 2:17, that overcomers in Christ have a new name, given by God. “To the one who conquers, I will give … a white stone, and on the stone a new name is inscribed that no one knows except the one… Continue reading →

Not Just for Artistic People

Saying it again for those hiding in the back. This isn’t just for artistic people! I know what some people think when they hear words like journaling or workshops. They immediately think, “Oh that’s for creative people,” or “I’m not good at that stuff.” Even though you’ve heard me say over and over here, Faith+Art Journaling is for everyone! 💖 But honestly, in the Faith Journaling Collective Workshop from Faith Bundles, not every presenter will even use the “art” part. This summit presents many different ways that “Faith Journaling” can be done. This isn’t really about artistic ability at all…. Continue reading →

Independence 250–Mixed Media

Leave a comment

America’s Semi-QuinCenntinial is tomorrow! It’s a big deal! Let’s celebrate! And of course, what better way to commemorate than to get into my creative studio and make some mixed media art! With this being such a huge thing to commemorate, I was really disappointed, that for our nation’s 250th birthday there were very minimal creative supplies produced, and very hard to find those few. I was expecting to see my creative feeds filled with makes and tutorials. Pretty darn near crickets. When I searched to find others that I don’t follow, results were from many years past. I don’t want… Continue reading →

My Guiding Light

Who remembers the song My Lighthouse by Rend Collective? When I saw Natasha’s make with a lighthouse, in the Encounters in Colour Retreat, my mind immediately went to this song. My lighthouse, my lighthouse, shining in the darkness, I will follow you. What a great follow-up make to my Great Shepherd mixed media meditation on John 10, My sheep know My voice and follow it. They will not follow another. It’s all about following Jesus! In my wresting and in my doubt, in my failures, you won’t walk out… In my questions your truth will hold. Your great love will… Continue reading →

Sheep & The Shepherd {Tutorial}

Leave a comment

A couple of weeks ago, I shared some thoughts on Sheep, Shepherds, and Wolves. If you haven’t read that yet, click on over. In reflecting and writing, I knew I wanted to do a Bible Journaling page to remember it in my Bible. You saw my beginning ideas in that post. Here’s the conclusion and video tutorial. I made it right away, while still reflecting, but it took a while to get the tutorial edited. Sorry for the delay. (See pic at bottom for what I’ve been busy doing.) 😍 I’d recently gotten the new Happy Herd die set, and… Continue reading →

Summer Creativity

How is your summer creativity coming along? 👩🏻‍🎨 Are you one that has more time to relax and create in the summer? Or does your summer bring more running around, less time at home or in one place long enough to sit down and work on creative projects? I like to think I have more time in the summer, that my schedule is more flexible. But the reality is I also like to travel as much as possible. Sometimes those trips, such as when camping, allow for time to create. Sometimes those trips involve being busy with family, friends or… Continue reading →

I open up many of my journal pages to you, to come alongside you as a helper of your joy. Showing you that imperfect art is worthwhile to create, and should bring no shame—only joy and healing in the moment and making. And to bring you confidence that you too can do this. You were created to create! I’d love to help you learn how. Continue reading →
