My Favorite Bible Journaling Supplies

This post contains affiliate links.  Thanks for supporting Pitter & Glink! Hey, y'all!  Today's post has been a long time coming.  For a while now, I've wanted to write a post about my favorite Bible journaling supplies, but I never took the time to do it...until this week.  So today I'm going to tell you all about the supplies I love to use when I'm being creative in my Bible.  Of course, these supplies will work for art journaling of any kind, but y'all know I love my Bible journaling, so I'll try to mention how they work on the pages of my journaling Bible.

 I do want to mention first and foremost that you do NOT have to have a lot of fancy supplies to start journaling in your Bible.  All you need is a journaling Bible (or a notebook) and a no-bleed pen.  You can start there and add supplies to your collection as you become more comfortable working in your Bible.  But if you've followed me for a while, you know I'm a craft supply hoarder, so I need ALL. THE. SUPPLIES.  Well, I don't need them, but I want them. *wink*  So today I'm just going to tell you a little about the supplies I continuously go back to.  I also need to mention before I get started that the links I'm using to the items I talk about are affiliate links.  This just means that if you purchase something through one of my links, part of the purchase price will go towards helping support my blog at no extra cost to you.  (Thank you!)  Now that we have that out of the way, let's get started!

Free Worship Devotion + Bible Journaling Printable

This post contains affiliate links.  Thanks for supporting Pitter & Glink! Hey, y'all!  As you know, I love Bible journaling, and I love God's Word.  In months past, I have collaborated with other bloggers to bring you free devotions and coordinating Bible journaling printables.  This month, my friend Jennifer Hayes Yates--Christian devotion writer and blogger at One Thing--asked me to write a devotion as part of a three-week series on her blog all about digging deeper with God.  I was so excited that she asked me to write something because I have been wanting to write more lately, and her request was just the push I needed to finally do it.  The topic she gave me was worship, so I set aside a few days to study what God says about worship, and I wrote a devotion entitled "Whole-Hearted Worship."

When I was studying worship to write this devotion, one of the verses I found inspired me to do an entry in my journaling Bible.  You might have seen the page I illustrated on Instagram.

Because people seemed to like the page a lot, I decided to use it as inspiration for some FREE Bible journaling goodies that coordinate with the "Whole-Hearted Worship" devotion.

Free Two Days Devotion + Bible Journaling Printable

Hey, y'all!  I'm so excited to be sharing another Bible journaling freebie with you!  Every other month or so I love to collaborate with another blogger to bring you a set of awesome free tools to study God's Word through creativity.  This month I have teamed up with Hillary from Creative Faith & Company.  She is sharing a devotion she has written for y'all on her blog, and I'm sharing printable journaling goodies over here.

Hillary actually reached out to me about collaborating, and a subject she mentioned that she had on her heart was waiting.  Y'all, I feel like I've done nothing but WAIT over the past few years, so I thought that was a perfect subject for the devotion.  Let me explain...

Make This Easy DIY Nursery Art from a Cabinet Door

This post is sponsored by Expressions Vinyl and contains affiliate links.  Thanks for supporting Pitter & Glink! Hey, y'all!  I have such a fun post to share with y'all today!  If you follow me on Instagram, you probably already know that my husband and I are in the process of adopting a child.  After years of struggling with infertility, we are SO excited to finally be growing our family in the very near future.  We don't know if our future child will be a boy or a girl, so I've been keeping myself from doing too much nursery decorating.  This month I have teamed up with Expressions Vinyl to share a post with y'all with the theme "On the Wall," and I thought this was the perfect excuse to create some art for my bare nursery walls.  I created a fun cut file featuring part of a Bible verse, and I used it to create some neutral nursery art.  As usual, I'm sharing the free cut file with you at the end of the post so that you can make your own!

 Part of what makes this art so easy to create is that it's made from an unfinished cabinet door.  Yep, my local Habitat Restore had some inexpensive unfinished oak cabinet doors for sale a while back, and they were the perfect size for art, so I purchased a few.  I just had to stain the door, paint the inside panel and add some vinyl to complete my nursery art.  I'm sure you'd like the full tutorial though, so here we go!
