Watercolor with me! Video Tutorial + Printable Watercolor Template

If you’ve been around the blog or followed me on Instagram this year, you know I’ve fallen in love with watercolors. It started as stress relief and has turned into such a life-giving addition to my drawing (which I still love, of course). Watercoloring seems to bring out another side of my creative brain. It allows me to work more intuitively and freely. Today I’m combining my drawings and watercolors and hoping to share my love of watercolors with...

Summer Bible Memory + Printable Bible Memory Plan Chart

I told you I’d be back (two blog posts in one week–what?)!   Summer break is just around the corner for us. I’m freaking out a little bit about having everyone at home again, but believing that God has good things for us this summer, and that I will not go crazy and lose my hair . . . or my mind . . . or both.   Sigh. The anxiety is real, friends.   I want to have some...

Today’s the day! I’m so excited to share with you my my coloring book! It’s called Coloring the Word: Comfort and Hope, and I hope that it’s the first of many.  God has been so faithful to comfort me through Scripture, and I’m so excited to share a little of that comfort with you through my art.

Faith over fear screensaver + coloring page

Sometimes anxiety can be a lonely experience. “What are you worried about?” my husband will often ask. “I don’t know. It’s just everything all at once,” I usually say.  Anyone else with me? It can be lonely to not even be able to express an internal struggle. I was worshipping with my church family on Sunday and struggling with some anxiety, finding it a hard to sing out and focus. I think God said to me, “I know. I...

Love covers, ten years, and a free Bible verse art print!

“Above all, keep loving one another earnestly, since love covers a multitude of sins.” 1 Peter 4:8   A whole three years ago when I was a brand-new blogger, I posted my very first printable.

Plus, my husband and I just...

“Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock.

And everyone who hears these words of mine and does not do them will be like a foolish man who built his house on the...

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."
