Art Journal Bible Tutorial: The Importance of Journaling

Well, I've been sick and in bed most of this week or out of the house for appts or homeschool coop. I'm not really even sick sick, just allergies have killed me this year. This means, I haven't had much time for getting painty messy or even putting together a tutorial, but I wanted to share they importance of still being in the word and journaling even when you're in bed with a frog in your throat.
My kids think it's funny that I have no voice and the little one is totally confused thinking I really actually have a frog in my throat, LOL. I could feel it coming on Sunday night, and Monday morning it hit me hard... but I really wanted to have something to go along with what I had shared in my feature on Shanna's blog.

October 2014 - Week 40 in my pocket scrapbook album and some changes to the blog...

Phew!!! That's a really long title, LOL! I've been doing a lot of thinking about the blog and my creative team responsibilities and our homeschool routine and decided to make some changes to the routine on the blog.

 Since the beginning, I've been posting my weekly pocket pages on Mondays, workflow tutorials on Wednesdays and mixed media tutorials on Fridays and then recently added in the art journal Bible tutorials on Thursdays.

 The problem with sharing my pages on Mondays is that the sale is that I'm usually using new releases for my creative team requirements at The Lilypad, but the sale is over. So, I will now be moving them to Fridays. I'm hoping that if you're inspired by my pages and want that product, you'll be able to get them while they are on sale instead of afterwards.

 What does that mean for the mixed media tutorials? Well, I'm just going to switch them to Mondays. These tutorials were a much bigger hit than I anticipated and I find that with our homeschool schedule it's difficult for me to get photos and projects done during the week.

 Have I told you yet that homeschooling this year is kicking my butt? I still love it, it's just taking a lot more time and energy and I need to focus on them during the week and writing/photography during the weekends. Thankfully, I have a super supportive husband who knows how much this blog means to me, and I couldn't do this without him.

 So, we've skipped week 39, which is actually done... but I wanted to share Week 40 with you while the digital supplies are on sale at The Lilypad. I'm sooooo in LOVE with the Mixed Media Monthly kits and add-ons and couldn't wait to use them.

 Speaking of The Lilypad, this was the week that I went with some friends to Kansas to hang out and scrapbook... we just all happen to know each other from The Lilypad, so I couldn't resist using the awesome kits for this page. Hubby and the kiddos went to Michigan and had a blast!

Art Journal Bible: Testing Journaling Pen Inks

I was so excited about these new favorite pens from Uni-Ball! I decided to test them out. I wanted to see if they would bleed or not and which pens were best for underlining and doodling and journaling in my Bible.

Documented Life Project - Week 37 - doodling with white pen

I've kinda fallen in LOVE with this creation. It's funny that I love it so much because I used to hate using hearts in my craft and art projects. Now, I see hearts in nature and I just can't resist using them! The prompt for the week was to use white pens. I went crazy and had tons of fun while listening to the worship team rehearse and waiting for my kids who were at AWANAS. I think I've become a white pen addict!

 The main heart on the bottom is a leaf I found in the parking lot last Monday after leaving ballet rehearsal. Later in the week God gave me these words to say and I knew I had to write it down in the journal, "If you focus on only the art, you will miss his HEart!" 

 Those words have become my new motto when doing my #artworship in my Bible. I don't ever want to get to a place that I'm just focusing on the art and only thinking of myself. I want to be sure I truly am spending time with HIM and focusing on HIM and letting the HOLY SPIRIT move in me to create. I love how God does that, put words in my mouth.

I used my favorite white journaling pens and a Sharpie Poster Paint Pen for all the doodling.
