Planner pages to date

At the end of January I shared with you my planner that I am doing as part of the Documented Life Project.

Here are some more pages.  I am adding the Psalms to each week although I have not added my journaling.  This is a project called 52 Weeks of Psalms.

Each week you might notice an artist's name.  This is the artist that's being studied in the class Studying under the Masters hosted by Jeanne Oliver.  I haven't even started!!!!  I'm trying to get the Identity study finished first.

Week 6


 

 Week 7




Thanks for stopping by.

Identity: Sonship

Sonship is the subject of today's study in Ephesians.

Here are my journaling pages.


It wasn't obvious to me what to do for the creative response in my art journal. I kept thinking about the verse: It is for freedom that Christ has set us free.  I often use butterflies in my art to represent freedom and/or change.

I tore a page out of the Bible that I bought for just such a purpose (from the dollar store when I was last in the US) and found some bits of paper in my scrapbooking stash.  I tore the papers and layered them up.  I tried them out in different places before gluing them down.  The 3 butterflies in the middle look like those ones that the Victorians pinned into cases.  I put the other butterfly flying freely.

I wrote the freedom verse around the edge of the page and the verse from the talk 'I have called you friends.'

Here are the two pages together.

Thanks for stopping by.

Identity: Recreated

The title of the talk on Identity today is Recreated.

I did my journaling first.



Then I turned to my art journal.  I felt the page was very orange so I added some pink to it.

In a sketchbook I found a page I had already painted.

  I cut a piece of the paper and wrote the verse on it in white.

Then I turned it over and with two sizes of hearts that I had cut out from scraps of paper, I drew 10 large and 5 smaller hearts.  By  drawing them on the back you are not concerned with the placement of the hearts and it's a great surprise when you've cut them out and you turn them over.

Here they are.

I stuck the hearts down as flowers on my page. I drew in the stems and drew round the petals with a black pen.  I drew lines and squiggles to make a frame.

I finished the page by writing recreated in the bottom corner.


I got my inspiration from this which I saw initially on Pinterest.

Thanks for stopping by.
