Yesterday I discovered that though I thought I had completed the page on the right in 2017 (it's dated!), I never posted it - and it wasn't really complete! :) This chapter is full of instructions and promises and I found I wanted to add a lot more to the page - and the facing page.
Since I did the much of the page on the right a long time ago and didn't post about it, I can only guess about the materials I used there. It's clear I had used clear gesso to protect the page. I suspect I used watercolor pencils and water brush to draw and color the bread (since I don't think I had my Inktense then). The word "God" was stamped with brown StazOn ink (stamp from Sing Praise set by Inky Antics), and the rest of the words hand lettered with a brown fine-line marker. I'm really not sure what I used on the background, but I'm guessing I used Distress Ink - and then something with a bit of shimmer - a spray or metallic gelatos - not sure.
As I worked some more on these pages, I first added color to the facing page. I sprayed it first with Glimmer Mist (Sea Glass and Blue Icing) then added Distress ink (Salty Ocean) with a round sponge applicator. After that dried well, I added more stamped messages (Bible Promises stamp set from Stampendous and Memorable Messages from Inky Antics) & more hand lettering with my black Pitt pens. I also decided to trace over much of the brown lettering on the original page, turning it black so the two pages went together better.
Please note: I realized I had mis-quoted the passage on the right hand side of the page - corrected version is:

Cheryl: thanks for showing your Bible journaling--whether current or old! God is faithful! I need to do more of my own. I've not made a schedule to do this consistently and have let my design team commitments dictate my crafting time instead of carving out some Bible journaling time with it...shame on me. I need to be more faithful in my time spent in God's Word whether reading or journaling about the reading.
