Thank you Sandy! You will most definitely still see me around posting my faith journaling and illustrated bible pages. Are you on Facebook, because I post there a lot too? My link is: facebook.com/onescrappydoctor

Thank you Nancy. I’m not entirely sure where the next part of my journey will take me but that’s ok. I trust that God only has plans to prosper me and not to harm me. To give me a hope for the future.

Thank you Rebecca, and a happy Illustrated Faith birthday to you! Isn’t it exciting to see how far you’ve come on this journey already, and how much more shall surely be in store for you. I know I’m excited to see where God is leading me next.

I refuse to use the term ‘it is with a heavy heart’ because that statement would just simply be untrue! But the truth is this will be my last time posting on the Illustrated Faith blog as a Creative Team member as

Sewing in my bible came naturally to me as an extension of the way I usually craft. I can barely make a layout or card without running it through my sewing machine at some point. In fact, can I admit before you

Thanks Sandy!
Yes, that Daniel page is one of my favourites. It was quite simple to do really… just stamp a circle in varying colours! But it looks quite effective doesn’t it?
And I’m so glad you totally got the message about just going forth and getting stuck into it. Forget the end result! Just enjoy the time in the process.

Always enjoy your messages. Loved seeing your Bible and being encouraged not to worry about making mistakes or mess! When I saw the page covered with colored circles, I stopped the video to see what verse you had illustrated…Daniel 1. I can’t wait to try this.
Thanks again for your lovely videos.

As I work through each devotional I admit to using it as a bit of a testing ground for trying out new techniques and different ideas for embellishing. Certainly in the first instance I’m loving the devotionals for

A sermon that one of my pastors preached a couple of weeks ago keeps going around in my head. In fact, it wasn’t even a sermon actually – it was ‘just’ the communion message on healing. But clearly when God wants

I was wondering what happened to the printables in this tutorial! I thought they were really cute but I can not find them in the shop. When I clicked the link I said that the page did not exist.

@maddie-mrn Those printables are no longer available because the artist that designed them no longer works with Illustrated Faith! We’re so sorry that you can’t get your hands on them through our shop but I think you can still find them through her personal page: http://shop.alliescraps.com Feel free to contact her if you’re interested!

I’ve got a Canon laser printer. I’m not sure if the ink would bleed if it gets wet… I’m thinking it should be fairly waterproof. But because I tend to print onto plain thin cheap ordinary printing paper what it would definitely do is warp and buckle and not stand up very well to any wetness. So I don’t tend to mix wet mediums in with my printables ;-)

Good luck Natalie! Thank you for your art, your faith and your inspiration. You are loved by this tribe!
Thank you Nicky! Mwah!!

Natalie…Thank you so much for all of your “inspiration”…both spiritually and creatively. My story is similar in many ways to yours. God has told me to “Be still” for now. I am excited too to see what He has planned for me. God bless you and your ministry and hopefully you will pop up again somewhere in the future. God Bless…Nancy
