Relaxing

...& pulling out an old favorite <3

This baby has been in the works since the beginning of last winter.  Although, I haven't worked on it since gardening season started.  I thought I would pull it out and work on it tonight.  I'm going to have to find the blue for the words in store somewhere because I'm actually doubling up on what I'm supposed to be using.  So far I have the top left corner done, half of the bottom left corner, and pretty much only the words you see there. :)  

Relaxing.... :)

Something New: Studio Worship

Something new.  I'm learning to create digital files from my own hand lettering.  My goal is to create stamps and stickers from my work.  Since my work will be mainly used for bible journaling, I have named the "business" studio worship.  I am so new to Adobe Illustrator, so its taking me longer than I hoped, but I am learning!  If there is anyone out there with their own line of stamps and you wouldn't mind me asking you questions please comment :)  

New Study: He Speaks to Me

New study starting!!!  I am always excited when I get a new study.  Its so fun to open the new book and fill the pages with different colored inks.  Copying bible verses and adding stars and such.  

"He Speaks to Me" is by Priscilla Shirer.  She is an amazing teacher!  The study is about positioning ourselves to hear from God.  Priscilla focuses on Samuel, and his encounter with God when he was just a boy.  This study will also give me lots of great ideas for my journaling bible.

If any of you are in my area please come to our meeting on Tuesday night @ 6pm.  

Blessings <3

Bible Journaling Toolbox

I came along this toolbox after finding in the trash.  My dad had cleaned the garage and tossed it, and I saw great potential.  The only downfall is that it is super heavy.  Maybe one day I'll get a newer one, but I'm liking this one for now.  I painted the outside with wall paint and sprayed the tray and inside with workable fixative, just a a sealant.  Once it was dry I started adding my supplies. :)

  

The tray holds the little items that I use a lot.  Tiny attacher, acrylic block, alpha stamps, inks, dot runner, glue stuck, inks, paint brushes, pitt and micron pens, water brushes, pencil, and eraser.  Also, two small cups of banners, tags, and other little bits of ephemera.  

The bottum holds paints (acrylic and watercolor), sprays, more stamps (in CD cases), stickers, alphas, derwent inktense pencils.  If you are ever considering what "watercolor pencils" to purchase, these are BY FAR the best pencils I have used.  More stickers, more alphas, more stamps (alphas)....and stencils.

 

 Thanks for stopping by my blog and checking out my new toolbox :)
