Spiritual Weather, Lots of Desserts, and Fancy Water

Hello friends,


Work has been super busy so I haven't had a chance to post in a few weeks.  I did get this Bible Journal page done this weekend.  It fits Chris' All Kinds of Weather theme at **ART*JOURNAL*JOURNEY* as the page has it raining down Truth and Light which is a spiritual weather.. but still weather.  It is also kind of foggy in my scene - caused by lack of patience these days.  I definately need to be in my Bible more!

I had already done the stripes on the page before and never liked them, but finished it off with a bit of a scene and now I really like it. Some beautiful words on this scripture.  Ones I needed to read and pay attention too as I have been super focused on work (lots of people out sick so we are all having to do some extra work to cover) and do not have my life priorities straight. 

I went to dinner at Central Restaurant in Montgomery, Alabama with two of my work friends last week.  We all had dessert. - one of the best things at that restaurant.  The dessert was so pretty I wanted to share it and the cool way they served water (in old wine bottles).  I am also linking this post up and sharing it with those darling T-day girls who meet up each week to share our drink related posts over at Elizabeth's blog.  

This was my dessert:  pistachio cheesecake with a chantilly cream, toasted pistachios, and blueberry compote,  Yum!
Jake's mile high lemon meringue pie with lemon curd and torched meringue. 
Sweet potato creme brulee with ginger snap cookies and dried meringue. 
It was an adventure for sure.  The sweet potato creme brulee was the best. 

Hope you are having a great week so far, happy Thanksgiving if you celebrate it, and many hugz to all who visit here.  I appreciate you and I am thankful for your time and encouragement.  

Nancy

    Those desserts look to die for. I don't know which one I would pick. I might have to sample all 3-smile. And sounds like life has been busy. I hope you get some down time over Thanksgiving. Your Bible page came out great and is perfect for Chris' challenge at AJJ. Thanks so much for joining us. It is amazing how good art can make you feel when life is busy, isn't it? I hope you have a wonderful T and Thanksgiving holiday and week ahead. Hugs-Erika

    Love your journal page. I have a Bible journal but am afraid of ruining the pages. I may have to pull it out and give it another try.
    your desserts look amazing! Way too pretty to eat but I bet they were yummy!
    Happy Tea Day and Happy Thanksgiving,
    Kate

    I love how the mountains in your painting are reflected in your psalm. I loved the deer and how you made this entry feel like a holy dwelling place. Thank you for sharing yhis with us at Art Journal Journey using Chris's theme. It turned out great.

    Wow, those desserts. I'd love to try the mile high lemon meringue. The cheesecake sounds good, too. I love how the old bottles were on the table filled with water, too.

    Thanks for sharing your beautiful bible journal page, your desserts, and your water with us for T this Tuesday, dear Nancy. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family, too.

    Hi there Nancy! I always love the inspiration with your Bible pages! The colors are gorgeous and I love your idea about the "raining/pouring words" which are beautifully reminders that grab attention! Thanks for the inspiration friend! P.S The desserts look totally amazing!

    What a beautiful journal page. I like the idea of 'spiritual weather' and raining down truth and light. I too need to be lead by God's truth and light. It's good to remember that. I sometimes stick verses on my computer monitor. I think this week it will be this verse. Thank you.
    Oh those desserts! They look soooo scrummy! I don't know which I would have chosen. I think the high lemon meringue pie.
    Happy T-Day,
    Have a great week,
    Hugs

    A super journal page Nancy, I like the scene you have created.
    Those puddings look yummy, especially the mile high lemon meringue.
    I hope things calm down for you at work.

    I have really got to get more Bible journaling done - this is a great example of how to create a page. Do you clear gesso first? You created a beautiful scene for my theme at AJJ and those are wonderful words - Thank you.
    Oh My! Those desserts - Sweet potato creme brûlée sounds good but I love pistachio too - no matter if I was full I would just have to have one! Belated Happy T Day, Chrisx

Some Penguins

Today kicks off the newest Pattie's Creations Challenge which is Tags . Just Tags. No cards with Tags on or in them - just tags. I love to make just tags so this one was right up my alley. I used the super cute Penguin image from Pattie's Creations, but I couldn't stop at just one so I made a little penguin family. My tag is made from an old cardboard box top which I peeled down, painted, distressed a bit, and then added some snow medium. My bow is actually a new bow designed by Pamela Lehto (available at Squigglefly tomorrow). Please join us in the Pattie's Creations Tag Challenge - there are lovely DT tags for inspiration and Pattie gives away wonderful prizes! Hugz!

Language Plays, Billiard Balls, and Some "Interesting" Wine

 I always look forward to the new **Art*Journal*Journey* Theme each month. The May theme was chosen by Elle and she chose Language as the theme. So many cool things you can do with that theme.  This weekend I chose to do the Language(s) of God in my Journaling Bible.  When I started, I was going to do Fasting as a way of speaking to God but after listening to a Sermon on Fasting, I realized that was more complicated and I would have to study it more first. So I switched gears midstream and just did some of ways that God speaks to us and vice versa.  There are many more, but I put the ones I could think of quickly here.   The papers are from an old hymnal and Close to My Heart (CTMH).  The gnome is CTMH as well.  Now I have played with all the gnomes in the set,and I totally love them. While looking for the hymnal paper, I ran across an old song book that I was saving.  It was damaged so I knew it would have to be recycled into something....

A Covered Bridge, a Shotgun Wedding, Patton Wisdom, and Some Art

 On our recent vaction, hubby and I got back to our historical marker seeking.  This time we visited the Clarkson Covered Bridge. It is super long and very cool.  We also found a website HERE that has a mapped out tour of Alabama where you can visit 7 in one day - a fun trip for a Fall weekend.  This is the only picture I took of the bridge. The day before, we visited the Patton Musuem at Ft. Knox, Kentucky and viewed Ft. Knox from as close as they will let you get. They say there is still a ton of gold in Ft. Knox - trillions of dollars worth.  We liked the Patton Museum.  I don't agree with most of Patton's management style, but do respect that he accomplished much.  I was impressed with some of his leadership statements like this one which I totally agree with: They have some fabulous items at the museum - hubby could have looked for hours and hours if I had let him. They have planes, tanks, and other vehicles there too so you can see exactly what ...
