Love

Bible Journaling

In May of this year I discovered Bible Journaling from Shanna Noel.  I was intrigued! Honestly part of me was asking myself could I do that in my Bible? Could I do that in any Bible?  I decided to take the plung.  I went to a local Christian book store and bought a NIV Journaling Bible.  Two months later I actually did my first page.  I was nervous! After I did it, I was hooked! While I was journaling it took reading my Bible to a whole new level! It defiitely brought me closer to God.  Most of my pages are from the notes I took from Church services, my favorite verses or devotionals.  Some pages I stamped, added stickers, or doodled (which I am  not great at!). Check out Shanna Noel's blog here for great inspiration.  Also there is a Facebook group here for Bible Journaling.  Just send an invite and someone will include you in the group.  Hope you enjoyed this! Thanks for stopping by!

Future Photographer?/Sketch-N-Scrap #65

Hi! I hope everyone is having a great week! I have a layout I did using Sketch-N-Scrap's awesome sketch.  Here is the sketch and my layout:

The supplies I used are Bo Bunny and Studio Calico.  I decided to talk a walk down our road to hopefully get some pictures of the sunset.  I asked my son to go with me and he informed me he would go only if he could take the pictures! He took some pretty good shots.  I just have to convience him to slow down. He moves before he is finished taking the picture! Anyway I am proud of him. Who knows? He might become a photographer! Thanks for stopping by!

Rejoice/Sketch-N-Scrap Inspired

Hello Everyone! Happy Monday! I hope everyone had a great weekend. I did and here is why....My son accepted Jesus into his life!! I am so excited about this! Of course I had to make a layout about it.  I used the Inspired sketch from Sketch-N-Scrap.  Here it is:

Here is my layout:

I changed it around a bit. Instead of the squares I used corrugated paper for the circles.  Above the picture I made a journaling flap that can be opened by the brad.  I didn't take a picture of it because I have already written inside of it and it is private.  The supplies I used are Fancy Pants Designs, Bazzill Basics, American Crafts, My Mind's Eye and Studio Calico.  Thanks for stopping by!! 

Matt Redman/Stuck?! Sketch Challenge

Hello Everyone! It is hard to believe that the end of September is near. Where does the time go? I have a layout I did for Stuck?! second sketch challenge.  Oh and if you haven't heard it is their anniversary and to celebrate they have some great prizes!! Here is their sketch and my layout:

I turned the sketch to accommodate my pictures. Originally I was going to keep the sketch as is, but then looking at my pictures I did have 3 "good ones."

The supplies I used are American Crafts, Crate Paper, Bazzill Basics, Little Yellow Bicycle and Ranger Ink. 

My son loves the song 10,000 Reasons (Bless My Soul) by Matt Redman.  When we found out that he was going to be performing at our Church we made sure to be there! He had such a good time and so did I! Thanks for stopping by!!
