Bible Journal - Psalm One

   I've been admiring all the beautiful Bible journaling pages on Instagram and Pinterest and I was very intrigued by the chance to combine creativity with time meditating on God's Word. I actually did this page back in July, I guess it's better late than never to share my first attempt at Bible journaling.

 I bought a Bible specifically for adding artsy journaling.  I found this ESV Journaling Bible at Christianbooks.com

 I remember that Psalm 1 was the first passage that I studied in depth as a teenager, many years ago. It seemed like the perfect place to start this new journey! 

 I sketched everything in pencil first then went over all the lines with a Signo Uniball  Ultra Micro pen. Color was added with watercolor paints. The water does make the pages wrinkle a bit but I love the look and the crinkly sound when the page is turned.

I thought I would create a title for each Bible book so I used Lawn Fawn's Louie's ABCs to die cut the letters from Webster's Pages Family Traditions 6x6 paper.

I added a scribbled outline to the die cut letters with the Ultra Micro pen.



Time spent in fellowship with God is time well-spent!
There's no right or wrong way, no daily quotas.
Just pray, just read the Bible; free your heart to worship!
The result is a closer walk with God.


thanks so much for visiting! i'd love to hear your thoughts on Bible Journaling
