Bible Art Journaling

Today I thought I'd share with you some of the things 
I've been working on in my Bible. 

(If you would like to pin any of the images to Pinterest, just hover your mouse over the image and click on the pin it button.)


I have added washi tape to the edges of each book of the Bible


Here is what it looks like on the inside. I added it to one side and then folded it over so it would show on the opposite page. Are they perfect? No! Am I perfect? No! Were the people in the Bible perfect? No! Well, except Jesus, of course.
So I'm okay with the tape not being lined up perfectly.



I adhered washi tape to Psalm 139, my favorite chapter in the Bible.
I also adhered these arrow tags to John 14 and then I outlined them with a black pen. (Micron 05) (Tags - free download from Shanna Noel)


I actually tried my hand at freehand drawing. I don't think it turned out so bad.
(watercolor pencils - Crayola Twistables)


This page was done with watercolor crayons. (Caran D'Ache Watercolor Crayons)



On these two I added stickers that I found in my scrapbooking stash. I thought they would be cute for the passages talking about Noah bringing the animals into the ark. I don't think I'm done with these. I may add some color to the background. (Stickers - Me and My Big Idea)


This one was done with watercolor pencils. I had adhered the #1 sticker to the page before adding the water to the pencil. It kind of pulled the paper around the sticker. Lesson learned.


I used acrylic paints on this page. The 'Walk in Faith' tag I made in Word.


This is my favorite page so far. I had seen others using the acrylic paints so I decided to try it myself. This is my new favorite way of adding color. It does not bleed through, it stays on top of the page, and drys very quickly.

Well I hope you've enjoyed my little Bible Art Journaling Gallery today.

  1. Love your creativity and the fact that you use stickers as well as paints. I'm looking for incentive to try my first attempt in the Journaling Bible Community.
