Good morning everyone! I am mind blowingly busy from Jan 1 to April 15, because of tax season and other large projects, and my creativity takes a hit.
I was feeling like a slug with too much left brained activity so I took a well needed break and art journaled most of the day. Yey!
I picked some Bible verses that spoke to me and were very visual. Psalm 148:7-12. These particular verses show everyone and everything praising God. It’s a great way to memorize scripture also. See below for the rest of images.
If you’re not familiar with art journaling, it can involve a range of every art supply at Michael’s, to a few simple tools…a journal, scissors, magazines, colored markers, glue. And what inspires you!
P.S. I put a funny picture in one of my pages. Can you find it? 😀🤔😀
Curious…what are your favorite activities when you need a break?
Thanks for visiting and may God bless you!
God Stories for Me, Yippee! 
Art journaling sounds interesting, I may have to try that! Thank you for sharing.

That looks so fun! I usually go out for a walk when I need a break. Fresh air and nature whisk me away from my desk and reset my mind. Lately, I haven’t been able walk far, but shoveling the snow seems to get the ants out of my pants too. 😂

Agreed! Because of limited time, I do 10 minute mini walks. It does help to reset the mind like you say and 10 minutes, a couple times a day, adds up. Have a great Sonday!

Creativity such as art, music etc is not my natural bent…so usually it’s cooking something or rearranging the furniture or gardening!

Rearranging the furniture? You just brought back wonderful memories bc my mom loved doing that! God bless you. ❤

I’ve dabbled in Bible art journaling–you’ve inspired me to give it another go, Marla. Some pages I tackled took more time than I anticipated. I like your simpler approach–making montages from magazine pics, for example. Now I’m going to head over to that link you shared above with another commenter. Thank you, Marla!
