Art Journaling in my Bible



 I have always been curious about art journaling. I love water colors and acrylics, and even my own naive drawings but found that I had little inspiration or motivation when staring at a blank journal. Then in late 2014 I saw a blog/IG post by Shanna Noel. She had fused art journaling and a faith based inspiration right in the margins of her bible. A HA!  

I found a verse that supported my "one little word" for the year. I used some letter stickers and a rub on right in the margin in my bible and placed a little tab on the side. Wow! My heart was hooked! 

I thought I would share what a completed books of the Bible looks like. By following an online bible devotional, I journaled through 1&2 Timothy. It has a variety of styles of journaling. That works for me.

I had many studious inductive study notes in 2 Timothy already in the margins, so I included a mini folder to hold highlighted passages.
I was created to create. This is a good thing for my heart and soul.
