    My favorite page is your mistake page. The cross and the blood. It's absolutely beautiful. I am so moved by it. Thanks for sharing your bible. It is without a doubt the most beautiful bible I have ever seen!!!!!!!

    You have just made my day. I'm a beginner at Bible Journaling and boy have I made a mess on a couple of pages. I'm so thankful I found you. It was such a blessing for me to understand there is a better way to journal without ruining your pages. Also I LOVE the way you do your word studies. That is an excellent idea. Thanks for sharing your faith and talent. I'm excited to try again.

    The extent of my Bible "art journaling" has been underlining, highlighting, and the occasional in-the-margin sermon outline or sentence diagram. Your art work is very well done. This whole concept is fascinating. I hope it causes many of God's people to spend more time meditating on His Word. God bless.

You may be interested in a new Bible Journaling e-course I am teaching. We will be using stencils and then making them not look like stencils, so one doesn't need to know how to draw to make beautiful Bible pages. I'll be posting on my blog about it soon. valeriesjodin.com

There was a thing I learned in the process of using the Glazing LIquid - Don't use Pilot Frixion pens - All my notes disappeared on the other side of the paper. I get to study that page again. :>) Thank you again.

It has a message to it for me- I am not perfect, be who I was created to be, love me, always acknowledge the creator and give him praise, honor and glory, trust him, know that his son Jesus's death on the cross was for me and those in this world to have eternal life in heaven. I am to share this love with world, pray for it, care for it. Thank you for sharing this with us and may God forever bless you always!!

  • @viviansmith8036
    @viviansmith8036 Před 7 lety

    I think you are very talented. I would urge everyone who does this to think past it being your bible. Because when we leave this earth someone else will be reading the things we put in it. Especially in a bible that looks so pretty. Most of the art work I have seen is just that, art. But some people may erroneously add"commentaries" which then is technically adding to how someone may interpret a passage. Some of us older ladies are teaching the younger generation. Weather we know it or not. 1Cor. 3:10 AMPC According to the grace (the special endowment for my task) of God bestowed on me, like a skillful architect and master builder I laid [the] foundation, and now another [man] is building upon it. But let each [man] be careful how he builds upon it, NKJ According to the grace of God which was given to me, as a wise masterbuilder I have laid the foundation, and another builds on it. But let each one take heed how he builds on it. BLESSING TO ALL WHO READ THIS AND WHO ADD THEIR ARTFUL COMMENTS TO THE WORD. I'M SURE GOD WILL USE YOUR BIBLES LONG AFTER WE ARE NO LONGER HERE.

    @princ3ssMusicifiy Před 8 lety

    This is so creative! I just started looking into creative bible journaling and exploring the different types and I can honestly say I need to buy me a "creative bible" because I would often get distracted and start drawing during sermons or I would have to take notes to keep my mind engaged while at church. Often, times I would get into trouble if I'm not paying attention and I'm 20 years old lol. - Pretty sad, I know. lol. But, I'll look into getting me one because I've been wanting a new bible for sometime now. Looking through my old ones which are still somewhat new. It's too simple for me because it's a "youth's bible." I need more life related examples for me and something that will keep me engaged. This definitely helps!

    • @valeriesjodin5194
      @valeriesjodin5194  Před 8 lety

      Not sad at all. Doodling has been proven to help people listen better. I'd say go for it and get a journaling Bible with space to draw, doodle and write as the Spirit leads. Blessings to you as you step out into more inspired creativity.

      +Rose McGuinn: By Deli paper do you mean "waxed paper"?

    • @rosemcguinn5301
      @rosemcguinn5301 Před 8 lety +1

      Nancy Ruth Glad you've asked! This is a new subject for me, one that's fun!
      Deli paper is a form of waxed paper, but it is not as waxy as regular waxed paper. It's used mostly in delicatessens for the wrapping of sandwiches and such like in the States. It comes in oddly cut, squarish single sheets, all folded up neatly in fitted boxes with dispensing lids or facial tissue box-style openings for easy access.
      One side of each sheet generally has more wax to it than the other. The less waxy side takes Gelli printing using acrylic paint quite well. These sheets are semi transparent, and may be collaged. The frugal crafter, Lindsay Weirich at CZcams has a tutorial about how to make one's own gel style monoprint block.
      (frugalcrafter at CZcams to find her.)
      The thinness of each Deli paper sheet means that more layers may be used inside of tightly fitting places such as within books. They are also less delicate than regular tissue paper (wrapping style tissue) and so hold up to gluing a bit better.
      Shel C at CZcams also has recently added a brilliant new octopus collage to her video roster. In that video, she shows one of the ways of using Deli Paper in collage making.
      I've seen some people make their own washi tape using Deli Paper and Score tape.
      I myself have recently experimented with stamping on some sheets. That's over at my Rose's Art Garden blog.
      Hope I haven't overwhelmed you with too much enthusiasm about the stuff!

    Hi Valerie I love your ideas, I have a question about the acrylic glazing....you are using satin, is there no shine to it?? compared to the gloss one, i know in paint the satin is just a little shiny, I have tim holtz new mediums and you can move your finger and shade with pitt pens on it..and now I have just bought and tried dina wakely clear gesso which is definately thinner then Tims but has no shine and you can barely tell I put 2 coats on the page....I havent tried pitt pens on it yet,just coated the page last nite....I personally like some shine, but the golden is pricey especially the satin /

      +jeanheming It sounds like you have tried some things that work well for you. That is great! I am using satin. There is not any shine on my Bible pages.

    Love your work. Love, love, love your sharing what not to do! :))) You mention gluing down the "deli paper" but which glue do you use? Do you use deli paper that is made for scrapbooking or what is sold in boxes and folded? Thank you

      +Lynn Williams I've not used the deli paper made for scrapbooking, but it sounds like it would be worth a try. I talk further about the types of deli paper I've used on the blog post linked to in the text below the video

    do you know how this glazing liquid compares to clear gesso on the bible pages? also do you paint with acrylic or watercolor?
    your work is just beautiful!!!!

      Thank you. Yes, since this video I have also used some clear gesso Art Basics brand. It works very well. I still use glazing liquid too, which can be as a base like the gesso, but it dries slower. The glazing liquid works very well if you want to extend the flow or drying time of the acrylic paint to make a soft edge. If I had to use just one product it would be the glazing liquid, but I use both. The Art Basics clear gesso works very well. I did not like the result of Liquitex clear gesso, and am going to try Dina Wakely's clear gesso next.

    Do you every use clear gesso for the page prep or do you always use the acrylic glazing? What is the difference between these two page preps? Thanks. Love your painting.

      +Grace George Grace, I used the Liquitex clear gesso and didn't like it because of the gritty texture. I haven't used Dina Wakely's clear gesso, but I have seen some lovely pages done with that. I like the acrylic glazing because it nicely seals the surface of the page with a smooth finish and I can also use it with the paint as transparent glazing.

    Valerie, I really appreciate you, I will be following you with your blessing. Do you put some kind of medium over your finished work? In the adult coloring books the pencils will fade or smears on the following page. God bless you and thank you for your God gift.

    • @valeriesjodin5194

      Joanne, Thank you. I don't put any medium over my colored pencils and I haven't had the fade or smear trouble. I use Prismacolors and often use a colorless blender pencil so the color gets more into the fiber of the paper.

    Valerie, I just found your channel.. you are truly an inspiration. I loved looking at your pages. When you refer to "deli paper" is that like parchment paper? Your techniques are so amazing. Thanks for sharing your video.

    • @valeriesjodin5194
      @valeriesjodin5194  Před 9 lety +1

      Lynn Shokoples Thank you Lynn. I haven't tried parchment paper. Deli paper/sandwich wrap is different. I have a paragraph about Deli paper in the blog post listed with this video.

      Valerie Sjodin I'm still amazed and watching your video again! Do you prep your deli paper with anything? I am heading over to your blog now..

    • @valeriesjodin5194
      @valeriesjodin5194  Před 9 lety

      Lynn Shokoples Lynn, the prep for deli paper is like any other surface. It ranges from no prep, matte medium, glazing liquid, or gesso. Very versatile.

      I painted it with Golden Iridescent Bright Gold paint and a small round brush. Also spattered with a toothbrush

    Though I have not tried it yet, I understand you can use wax to keep your pages from sticking together. Perhaps this would resolve your "cross page" issue...

  • @PamelyB

    For your page "Spirit of Truth" in the beginning of Acts... do you have a tutorial on this type of work? I am in love with how that page turned out and would love to create something similar!

    • @valeriesjodin5194
      @valeriesjodin5194  Před 8 lety

      +PamelyB I do not have a tutorial at this time for that page. I appreciate your feedback. As I work on my current projects, I'm considering what God has for me next. Hopefully it will include some video tutorials. Blessings.
