Today's post is about Esther in Esther 4:1 - 5:1

In my journal I drew lightly with a pencil and then used a waterbrush and watercolour paints to colour the golden sceptre.  I added the words with sticky letters.

Today's post is about the Temple veil in 2 Chronicles 3:1-14 and Exodus 26:31-35

My journal page already had this on it:

I had thought that I would paint the page gold to illustrate the glory of God behind the veil but decided to leave it as it was.

I found a piece of paper the same size as the journal page and covered it in cling film and matt medium.

I tore up pieces of violet, red and dark blue 'bleeding' tissue.  This is special art tissue which bleeds when it is wet and I was hoping the colours would blend into each other - however the glue doesn't work like water does!

When it was completely dry I peeled it off the cling film and tore it down the middle.  I glued the pieces to my page.

Today's post is about the wisdom of Solomon in 1 Kings 10.

The next page in my journal already had this background on it so I went with it!

I stamped with a stamp that looks like it's from an old book.  I cut out the definition of wisdom from the dictionary and wrote out Proverbs 2:2
