Bible Art Journal Entry - The Lord Is My Refuge

He will cover you with his feathers, 

and under his wings you will find refuge.

Psalm 91:4

One of the (many) things I love about Bible art journaling, is that I didn't have to go out and buy any new supplies (even though I probably did anyway), as crafting supplies are so versatile, I can use what I already have in my Bible, my planner, my cardmaking, etc.  And I LOVE stickers sheets!  I'm a total sticker girl!  My latest sticker score is this!  (Simples Stories "So Fancy" -- see link below)

Seriously, look at that pink VW bug!  And the typewriter!  And the phone!  I mean, it's just too cute to use!  I'll start to take a sticker off to use and then stop myself because I don't want it to leave me!  But I did bring myself to use a couple of the feathers for this amazing passage in Psalm.

I decided to use my own handwriting this time instead of stickers.  I've never liked my handwriting, but I'm trying to get over that and just embrace it!

The umbrella isn't a sticker, but it's part of a die cut pack from Illustrated Faith.  Such cute designs in that set as well!

And don't forget the washi!  I want all the washi!

I hope you're taking refuge under the wings of a mighty Savior today!

Bible Art Journal Entry: Sweeter Than Honey

How sweet are your words to my taste,

sweeter than honey to my mouth!

Psalm 119:103

This was a sweet (no pun intended), quick little journal entry.  I borrowed a friend's stamp set that had this cute little bee on it (sorry, forgot to write down the name of it) and with the help of a Tim Holtz stencil, created this "honeycomb" look with a couple different colors of distress inks (Mustard Seed and Brushed Corduroy).

May you find the sweetness of God's Word today!

Bible Art Journal Entry: He Is Risen!

I hope you all had a glorious Easter!

This is some Bible art I did a while ago and was saving to share on Easter.

Luke 24 tells of the resurrection of Jesus!  The sun/He is Risen part of this journal entry was inspired by one I saw on Pinterest.  Also, I've been wanting to journal the words to Jeremy Camp's song, "Same Power," for some time, so when I saw my inspiration post on Pinterest, I knew the lyrics would go great with this entry!  Luckily I had room on the next page, since it was the last Chapter in the book and there was some room left over.

I used the Tim Holtz "Rays" stencil for the sun along with some Gelatos (love these things).  Paint, stamps and stickers make up the lyrics, "The same power that rose Jesus from the grave lives in us!" 

Romans 8:11
If the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you.

We will not be overtaken, we will not be overcome!

Bible Art Journal Entry: Let Everything That Has Breath...

PRAISE THE LORD!

Praise God in his sanctuary;

praise him in his mighty heavens!

Praise him for his mighty deeds;

praise him according to his excellent greatness!

Praise him with trumpet sound;

praise him with lute and harp!

Praise him with tambourine and dance;

praise him with strings and pipe!

Praise him with sounding cymbals;

praise him with loud clashing cymbals!

Let everything that has breath praise the Lord!

Praise the Lord! 

Psalm 150

I had a lot of room to express my praise for God through art for this passage.  It's a lovely way to end the book of Psalm!  It's also a lovely way to start and end our days....and all the in-between parts too!

I got to attend a craft day with some ladies last month and had the best time.  One of the gals brought her stash of stamps (and other supplies) to share, and I used her stamps on this page (bird, branch, butterflies, flower, dragonfly, "everything" letters) and forgot to write down the name of the stamp sets, so don't have those listed below with the other supplies.

Get your praise on!

Bible Art Journal Entry - Mind On Christ = Perfect Peace

You keep him in perfect peace

whose mind is stayed on you,

because he trusts in you.

Trust in the Lord forever,

for the Lord God is an everlasting rock.

Isaiah 26:3-4

Some washi tape and letter stickers was all it took for this journal entry.

Keep your mind on Christ today!

Bible Art Journal Entry - Love This Way

First Corinthians 13 was one of the first chapters of the Bible I memorized (thanks to being a Missionette).  My pastor is preaching through 1 Corinthians and came to chapter 13 a few weeks back and I knew I wanted to save room in the margins for some art work, but still needed to take notes, so I squeezed them in where I could.

In this chapter, God tells us how we are to love one another.  Basically it's telling us how to be a Christian!

It's a great passage to meditate on...especially on those days when it's especially hard to display love in this way!

I just used my Stampin' Up! heart punch on a few different shades of red cardstock paper, an arrow sticker, and letter stickers.  I topped (and bottomed) it off with some heart washi tape and that's it!

Love Never Ends!
