Today's creation is another Bible Journaling piece. For more information on its meaning for me, check out my other blog. Here I'll be discussing how I created the page. Here's what the whole page looks like:
Page Preparation: I started by coating the page with clear gesso (Art Basics) using my usual technique (Bible Journaling Basics).
Picture: I stamped the picture (Janie's Girls Frames
stamps from HOTP) using StazOn ink. I stamped the picture again on a
post-it note and cut around it to use for a mask to protect it when I
added the background. I colored the picture using my Scroll and Brush markers.
Lettering: Any stamping was done with StazOn ink and then gone over with a Pitt pen (Faber Castel). I also used a Pitt pen for the rest of the lettering. I stamped the word "Sweet" (Janie's Girls Frames - masking the "you are" part of the sentiment stamp). For the word "Sleep" with the closed eyelids I
stamped just the "S" from the "Sweet" and then hand lettered the rest of
that verse. For the verse from Psalms, I first printed it using a font I liked and placed it behind the page. I then placed a light box behind both & traced the letters onto the page.
Background: The background was applied using a round sponge applicator (Ranger), taking care to protect the picture using the post-it note mask prepared earlier. The blue was from a "Chipped Sapphire" distress ink pad. The yellow highlights were from a yellow dye ink called "Sunshine" (also from Ranger). The yellow highlight on the Bible verse itself was a maker (Scroll & Brush).
