hey sweet friends! i hope you all have had a wonderful weekend & you're ready for a fresh week full of fresh grace!
i was so excited to open up a yummy package of happy mail this weekend with my copy of
100 days of bible promises -- the newest book from my darling friend shanna!! this book is filled cover to cover with God's goodness through devotion + prayers, gorgeous colors & plenty of empty spaces to be filled with journaling galore!
i just can't wait to start this 100 day-long project of diving in to God's promises for each of us & i'm REALLY pumped that we'll be sharing our growth in a fun little pop-up community group on facebook! you can join us in the group
HERE & we'll be kicking off on april 3rd [but join in whenever you can, friends!]
as always, i love to pull together a kit of coordinating supplies so that i can intentionally focus each day on the words God will have for me rather than 'oh what paint color should i choose today?!' i started these project-themed supply kits back in november & it has been such a game changer for me for diving in to the Word but still holding on to the creativity of art worship!
everyone's top question for me is always -- 'have you chosen your paint colors yet?'.... you guys totally get me & my love for these pretty paints ;) i was able to sneak away to target for some fun crafty shopping while the kids napped & caleb worked on his 1980-something honda motorcycle [the project that just keeps giving, friends....] today & now i'm ready to share my colorful finds!
i had a good portion of these paints already on hand [yay!], but added a few to my ever-growing stash. all paints are satin finish & include the following colors: elephant, azalea, shell, goldenrod, avocado, robin's egg, jade & deep sea. i even grabbed up a set of the homemade modern paintbrushes in the same paint aisle at target to try out.... y'all watch for a mini review coming on that soon!
extra goodies i'm grabbing up....
a jumbo fabric paper clippie from my
shop [those teal crosses are a must!], homespun alpha stickers, wordfetti booklet, washi tapes & my favorite pen!
i'm hoping to keep each page somewhat simple with just a wee little bit of paint along with a piece of ephemera goodness or two & a major focus on journaling. i pulled four packages of ephemera from my current collection of paper pieces & i'm planning to scrap-bust my way through them in this project! a few of them are still available & linked below, but some are retired by their designers.
and if you're wondering what that contraption there at the bottom is....
a
handheld sewing machine.... what what?! oh yes, friends! this project is going to get so texture-y & fun! i found this little gem on amazon & have not yet tried it, but once i get her going you know she'll be joining us live on IG + FB for some epic bible journaling sessions :]
i truly can't wait to begin this project & i prayerfully anticipate God showing up in my life in huge, magnificent, colorful ways!!! will you be joining us for
100 days of bible promises, too?
