WIP

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 →

💖 Thank you to all who have clicked my links to check out the Faith Journaling Collaboration Summit. And huge hugs to those of you who have joined or purchased the VIP Access through my links. 💖 🥰 You are going to be so blessed by these sessions—and even moreso by implementing some of their inspiration into your own quiet time with God. I’m especially excited to share the session I’m teaching in this Summit! 👩🏻‍🎨 One more thing. Can I ask a little favor? Do you have a friend who loves Bible study, journaling, quiet time, prayer, creativity, or… Continue reading →

Imagine

Imagine sitting down for your quiet time and feeling excited instead of wondering where to start. Imagine having a few different ideas in your back pocket for days when you feel distracted, stuck, overwhelmed, or just need something a little different. That’s what I love about the Faith Journaling Collective Workshop from Faith Bundles. Twenty women—including me!—. are sharing different ways they process Scripture and connect with God, and I have a feeling you’ll walk away with ideas you can continue using long after the workshop ends. Sometimes all we need is a little fresh perspective. You can join free… Continue reading →

Love & Worship God

By | | , ,

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 →

Where Faith, Neuroscience, & Creativity Meet

Leave a comment

This neurographic drawing has been sitting on my desk for a week or so. Although I’ve been doing other FaithArt journaling pretty consistently this summer, that evening I just wasn’t drawn to my mixed media projects in process. There were no heavy feelings, or issues to work through. Just a heart that needed something different. So I picked up paper and pen and began drawing neurolines and rounding intersections, while meditating on God’s Word and worshipping Him. I hadn’t done any neurographic drawing in several weeks, not since at the CTPM Retreat in May. But that’s what I was being… Continue reading →

Independence 250–Mixed Media

By | |
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 →

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

Leave a comment

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 →

Happy birthday, Freely Whole!

Leave a comment

As Freely Whole turns 10 today, I reflect on what God has done in this last decade. He has clarified what Freely Whole is and is to be, continually bringing more clarity. As I expected, Freely Whole exists to come alongside you, as a “helper of your joy”, to bring you comfort, encouragement, and support, while helping you grow more deeply in your understanding and love of Jesus. Not expected was its ministry to abused, divorced women, who love and follow Jesus. But not only to her! It is for any who desire to grow closer to Him. Who desire to express their worship to Him in creative ways. Who desire to walk in greater Freedom and Wholeness. Freely Whole is for YOU! Continue reading →
