Customer Reviews

This is a good book to start Bible Journaling with.

This book shows simple ways to express your love for God and your understanding of what God is trying to teach you. Sandy discusses supplies,color choices, simple backgrounds, adding trees and plants to designs, and how to grow in your love for God. I did learn a new idea from her. She uses watercolor pencils and activates them with baby wipes!!! Who would have thought of that as a low moisture way to move color??? She also talks about how to straighten wrinkled Bible pages. There are several demonstrations. I've done 5 of the tutorials and have learned some great techniques from this book.
