Musical Themed Bible Journaling

Hello Friends,

My sweet friend Vicki has been hosting this month's **ART*JOURNAL*JOURNEY* challenge, and her theme is music. 

Here is my Bible Journal page focusing on 2 Chronicles 5; the dedication of the temple where the people were singing and praising the Lord. The Lord's presence filled the temple, and the people sang while the priests played musical instruments. There were 120 priests just playing trumpets.


I am sure it was amazing. 

I drew the images and then painted them with Daniel Smith watercolors and a handmade metallic watercolor set my daughter gave me for my birthday. I added some shadows to the instruments and flowers because I also did this for the Friday F4A challenge at Splitcoaststampers.com which I am hosting and just posted. It is all about shadows this week.

Hugz,

Nancy

    What a stunning page Nancy! I love that wonderful gold shine on the trumpet you've done! I'm so impressed that you've drawn/cut that out! Your flowers are so pretty too and I love your story to inspire the design! I couldn't even imagine the sound of that many priests playing all at once! WOW! Always love your watercolor my friend! Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful inspiration using my "MUSIC" theme for AJJ!! HUGS

Unopened Mail And My Grocery List

We arrived back from our Las Vegas trip last night so the only thing on my Kitchen Counter is unopened mail and my grocery list.  I have looked up the recipes for most the great food we ate (or wish we ate) in Las Vegas including Bacon Waffles and Chicken and Waffles - so my counter top should look awesome tomorrow (or as soon as I get a waffle maker).  We had lots of fun in Las Vegas but not as much as Crystal and Joey.  If we were still 21 we would have had a blast!  No luck with gambling - but I only gained 1 pound which is a miracle!

Christmas Mice

Hello Crafty Friends, Today, I am playing in some fun challenges with this cute card: The current House-Mouse &Friends Monday Challenge HMFMC #461 is Anything Goes with an optional theme of Pastels. I have some pastel paper in my layers. This card was made with ornaments from a SU! set, a cut up sentiment from RedLead Paperworks, and three mice I cut out of the Spellbinders Sew Sweet stamp set. The background was inspired by Jeanne Streiff's MIX challenge on Splitcoaststampers.com last Friday where she asked us to make a background using a die cut as a stencil.

T is For 10 Years of T-Day, Too much food, and The Art (Always the Art)

Hello Friends. Most of today's post is about celebrating 10 years of Elizabeth hosting T-day parties on her blog .  If you have visited me before, you know that I regularily participate in T-day where we all post something about a drink of any type (the drink can be anything including water and the post can be a real drink, words, movies, art, etc.) on Tuesday (or Monday lol) and link it to Elizabeth's T-day blog post for the week.   This year Elizabeth is asking us to post several things in celebration of the big anniversary.   #1.   Post a picture of something that makes the number 10. I used 10 art supplies that were near me.  I am starting to make more Christmas cards so these were right at hand.  #2.   Post our regular T-day picture/post.  My drink picture today is a lunch we had in Tybee Island last week during our Georgia trip.  We ate at Pier 16 .  Great food and service. It was our favorite meal during the trip. ...
