Introducing two new Bible printable sets + a free sample coloring page

My business has changed a lot over the last 10 years! I started off making cute animal prints for nursery decor on Etsy. In 2015, I started writing this blog and created my first Bible verse printable. I was looking for Bible coloring pages to do with my kids, and I couldn’t find what I was looking for. That led to creating my printable Bible verse cards and coloring pages.

In 2018, I started exploring watercolor, and that led to the creation of the hymn art prints, which have done so well. Managing the different arms of my business sometimes feels like a wrestling match, but I am always trying to hear God’s leading and create things that He has given me a passion and ability to do.

So here we are in 2023, and I am so excited to finish up these two new printable sets to add to my shop’s printable library! I have always loved communicating the truth of God’s word in creative ways, so it was a joy to make these. I especially loved researching the pictures of God in Scripture. The project has deepened my own faith and love for God.

The Psalm 139 Set: “Knit Together”

This set is listed two ways: color cards and coloring pages or just black and white coloring cards + pages.

The “Picturing God” Playing Card Set

This set comes in a set of full color cards OR full and quarter page coloring pages. Each card features:

  • a Biblical picture of God
  • an illustrating image
  • a symbol
  • a main verse
  • plus most have additional verses to look up

I’ve also included a guide with ideas of ways to use the cards with your learners, and some blank cards for creating your own designs.

My hope is that this art helps you and your learners “to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge” (Ephesians 3:18).

I'm going to be introducing new prints from my new I'm going to be introducing new prints from my newest print collection over the next few weeks. The gorgeous "Be Thou My Vision" hymn has always been one of my bestselling hymns , so I decided to add an additional version to my shop. This hymn was translated into English in 1905 by Mary Elizabeth Byrne (July 2, 1880 – January 19, 1931) from the Old Irish Hymn, "Bí Thusa 'mo Shúile."

I'm going to be introducing new prints from my new I'm going to be introducing new prints from my newest print collection over the next few weeks. Today, meet my print of the 1907 hymn "Joyful, Joyful We Adore Thee" by Henry Van Dyke. Does anyone else immediately have the amazing Sister Act 2 version of this in their head? 

I've never done an abstract, layered watercolor design around a hymn, but I really love how this turned out. I wanted it to look like a stained glass window in a church, but with a not-so-literal take. 

Mortals, join the mighty chorus,
Which the morning stars began;
God's own love is reigning o’er us,
Joining people hand in hand.
Ever singing, march we onward,
Victors in the midst of strife;
Joyful music leads us sunward
In the triumph song of life.

I'm going to be introducing new prints from my new I'm going to be introducing new prints from my newest print collection over the next few weeks. Today, meet my watercolor nature color wheel and color mixing chart! 

Each little creature and plant in the color wheel was hand-painted and then scanned and edited to fit in its slice of color. This is inspired by my watercolor classes, where I love to give an introduction to color theory. The second print is a simple watercolor mixing chart and shows the beautiful colors you can create just by mixing a few basic colors together! 

Lastly, there is also a sticker version of the nature color wheel!
