Journaling Bible Giveaway!

Psalm 156 – watercolor pencils

Before I share today’s post, I wanted to remind you all that I set up a Facebook page to share ideas and Bible journaling images. It’s an awesome community. Come and join us! And if you don’t have a journaling Bible you can get a little journal from the dollar store and doodle your verses in there (a lot of girls are doing that). If you’d like to buy one at Amazon, perhaps you might consider using this affiliate link. It doesn’t cost you anymore, but I’d like to offer some Bibles for giveaway from time to time (starting today), and I get a small referral commission from Amazon: KJV Journaling Bible This is the one I use. My favorite! There are other ones on Amazon too. So you might dig around a bit to find your favorite. The other tools I use are listed here, except for the acrylic paint (I don’t have that listed). So, I love this new technique of adding acrylic paint to color the page, BUT I know… I used to much. I tried everything to tone down the blue. Live and learn. Fischtales has amazing tutorials. And the dollar store has super affordable acrylic paint for beginners. It’s fun. But acrylics have to be watered down and used oh so sparingly. Like seriously sparingly. Here’s a link to her youtube channel: Fischtales Bible Journaling I just started drawing roses today and I love them!! They were so easy that I kept calling myself the rose queen. My daughter told me I had to stop. It was annoying. LOL (expect to see more roses!) I also drew a ship, which I realized should have been done on a way bigger canvas. You can hardly tell what it is.

Are you ready for a giveaway!

I’m giving away three KJV Jounaling Bibles! (one per winner). This is the same Bible you see in my Bible journaling images, BUT you have to color the images yourself. *wink*

It’s beautiful brown imitation leather. There are wide margins on every page, which are great for taking notes. So even if you aren’t a doodler, you can fill up the pages with thoughts!

You can enter to win one in two ways. One is to share a link to this post on Facebook, twitter, pinterest, or email, etc. And the second way is to join the Facebook group. Here’s the link again: Journaling Facebook Group

I’ll choose three winners and announce them here when the giveaway ends.

U.S. and Canada only please.

    Thank you for this opportunity! I’ve been eyeing these Bibles online but haven’t mad up my mind because sometimes it’s nice to see what you’re getting before you buy. There’s also a few features these Bibles don’t have that I wish they did. Eventually I’ll make up mind, unless I win one first 😉

    I love the idea of this. I think better when doodling and this would be a way for my active brain to meditate on the word of God.

    I entered the contest and if I don’t win I’m buying a journal and doing this anyways.

    Thank you!

I have been inspired by you with two challenges for this year, the Project 365 and now journaling Bible, and I am so thankful for this. May God continue to bless your ministry. Now for the opportunity to win the Bible, I have joined the group on FB, thanks again for the chance!

I think this would be a great thing to be doing as I spent time in the word. When I can be draw and doodling at the same time! Then it really makes you think about what you read!

    I have a notebook that I’ve decided to try and journal in. I’ve never really known how to do it but tonight the Lord was really showing me what to do. I started with one scripture and others came to mind. I wanted to keep going but I’m going to just do a page a day. I’m sure there will be dry days and that’s okay. It feels good to be learning something new!

    • Darlene Schacht says

      July 17, 2015 at 2:31 am

      Cheryl, I’m using acrylic paint, so I’m thinking that my paint will cover the bleed through better than watercolor might. I do have a video where I show the back of my page at the end. Look at the video and advance to 23:00. You’ll see how mine looks. I use a TON of water and a little bit of acrylic paint. The ink is worse than the paint I find. Ugh.

    I came across this page while doing a search for bible ideas to do for my husband’s new bible. I have been doing journal bible’s for 7+ years now BUT I am at a stand still right now with my husband’s bible. He uses a bible on his iphone but I am wanting to do one for him like I am doing for everyone in my life. I just got his in (it’s a camo one) and when he saw it, he LOVED it. He doesn’t know its for him :D.

    Does your husband have any pointers to a wife that is clueless where to start? Normally I just highlight and which verses have meaning to me. I am currently doing the SOAK method in my current bible and my 5 yr old granddaughter has claimed this bible lol.

    I have all the bibles I have ever owned to hand down to all my generations. I also buy bibles to give as gifts. I guess I am a bible hoarder but in a great way :).

    I would love any ideas. My husband’s bible has no space so I have to plan on what I am going to write (it’s just a regular type of bible).

    Thank you so much for any help.

    God Bless,
    Anne

candace1

"I'm absolutely in awe of your writing, the way you pulled biblical principles and weaved them into life application. I'm amazed at how you were able to expand upon simple words like action, self discipline, motivation, intention, etc.--and write thought provoking information to actually help one change their mind-set and pursue their goals.

The way you weaved my stories into all these principles leaves me speechless."
