I'd be lying if I said I was doing better, handling the situation better as I most certainly am not.
In all of last week's chaos I did manage 7 sessions of the 24 available from the Bible Journaling Conference.
I picked my favourite presenters from previous years who I follow throughout the year, plus a couple of printables which spoke to me.
Last Wednesday 14th October I started with the conference ticket in my journal then did the first session by the host presenter in my little NT Bible. Any images I had left over from the session I added to my ticket page.
I then did the Take a Step of Faith page as the imagery really spoke to me.
On the Thursday I used left over images on my previous page, you know the one I have been doing layers on but didn't know where it was going....
Friday I did my favourite presenter's page Lynn Grobler from JOTW
Even If.........
and Anri's page too, love her style.
Saturday I managed Amanda's watercolour in my Bible despite being anxious all day with the workers there 3 hours over the time they should have been.
Sunday I did a couple of pages to finish up my current journal.
This last image really shows where I am as it's been a lot of tears with a complete melt down most days.
So struggling I still am, it's never ending.
Do join in with our illustrious host Julia at the link below, she began this weekly blog hop way back in May 2009 - I joined the fun in March 2012.
Great collection of new journal pages. Nice to see you managing to keep busy. Wishing you a happy woyww. Hugs Angela x7x
ReplyDeleteYou have made some beautiful pages- I'm amazed how you can be so creative but I guess keeping busy and creating lovely pages is a real help. x x Jo 🌈
ReplyDeleteYour Even If page is SO Powerful, not just the imagery, but those words. Happy WOYWW!
ReplyDeleteWe are on the same page today BJ, I went back to sleep and ended up rushing about for a 10am appointment which was cancelled at 945. Relief and cross too! You’re doing well, really, beautiful and mindful artwork in your journals and your bible. I know it feels never ending but it isn’t, honest.
ReplyDeleteI am pleased that you got some pages done last week, amidst all the crap that is being thrown at you! There will be relief one day... not soon enough of course, but one day! take care and keep crafting! Helen #1
ReplyDeleteYou did some lovely art despite feeling low, being creative does help even only a little. In reply to your empty hedgehog question, people have said they’ll stuff with anything from dusters to socks!
