A Combo Bible Journaling Page

This page is really 2 Bible journaling pieces that were completed about 1 week apart.  The first is at the top.  You may notice that this page has a big "OOPS".  I was preparing the page with gesso & suddenly realized I was using WHITE instead of CLEAR!!!!  I immediately stopped and cleared as much as I could - then continued with clear gesso.  But you can still see the white. 

I made a heart template that I traced around, then colored with Inktense pencils, then added a scalloped outline with a marker.  Then I outlined the letters "GRACE" and pulled the color into the inside of color.  The "food" was stamped & colored gray to show it to be undesirable.  The rest of the lettering for this first piece was made with Pitt pens.

For the lower piece, I had letter stickers I really liked the shape of - but not the color as it clashed with what was already on the page.  So I lightly placed them, outlined them with Inktense pencils and then removed them.  Drawing the color to the inside with a water pen completed the large letters.  The small word was created with a Pitt pen.  Then the notes were stamped (using stamps from "Just a Note" small stamp set from HOTP) - colored with scroll & brush markers.
