The observant may notice that Bible Journaling 8 is missing – never fear, it’s coming soon. It’s just that I did the prep for that one before this one, so we’re out of order… The theme for this month’s Bible Journaling session (tomorrow night, 13th January) is ‘I am a new creation’ – it’s the new year, so it seemed suitable. I thought it would be interesting to do five different illustrations for the same verse as a test of design skills and came up with these:
I’ve had chance to design and journal five more Bible journal entries this week. Continue reading for the button to press if you would like to download the outlines for your own use – it’s free!

It’s a while since I have done any Bible journaling, but for this month’s session, I did an off-the-page piece. I wanted to encourage my class to work outside their Bible and show off their skills. This is designed to fit into a Ribba frame from Ikea and is approx. 8″ square. It is available to purchase here.
Sorry it has been so long since I last posted some Bible journaling. May was not a good month for inspiration, and I’ve also been working on a quilt that I will be teaching later in the year which needed finishing. More on the quilt to follow once I have written the pattern!
Back to Bible journaling… all today’s verses are from the letters end of the New Testament. I’m working through a list of verses that I have noted in Biblical order – you’ll be able to tell how close I am to the end of that list!
In between creating Christmas lanterns (post to follow), I have had some time to do some more Bible journaling. In readiness for next month’s Bible journaling session, I’ve been looking at using colour palettes. I’ve used design-seeds.com as my source – there are oodles of prepared palettes to choose from along with the inspiration photos.
I’ve been creating some new Bible journaling this week. I’ve also been trying out some different art materials – more info after the gallery.
As with everything internet, I tend to only post things I am happy with. It’s the same with quality control in The Studio – it only goes out of the door if either my guest is happy, or I’m happy (and hopefully both) with the result of hard work. Today I’m going to share the process that led to this illustration:
Happy New Year to all my loyal readers and Studio guests! A new year is a great time to resolve to start something new – it just so happens I’m starting a new teaching session each month looking at Bible journaling. It’ll be on the third Monday evening, starting in January. For the first session, we’ll look at materials and media, as well as embarking on our first journaling.
In the meantime, I’ve done some more journaling that I thought I would share. First up, a verse for the new year in both my NIV and NLT journaling Bibles:
The weather outside is frightful – the risk of freezing rain didn’t amount to much, but it’s cold, dark, blustery with heavy rain. As a result, I am in a toasty warm studio with pencils and pens out and doing some Bible journaling. I thought I’d take some of the less familiar scripture verses that are relevant to the Christmas story and develop some graphics to capture them in my margins.
