Today I just wanted to share a few creative things I’ve been doing for my faith journey. I haven’t been into planning as much, but I have picked up my spiritual creativeness a bit more, so I’m ok with that!
First, I went to my local Altar’d State shop recently, and on the sale rack was a gorgeous Hosana Revival Bible. I love the look and style of these Bibles, but I didn’t really want to invest in the high cost of them. I found this one, the Rosie edition, for half off. I took it as a sign and brought it home. It’s a great compact size and has the column for journaling on each page.
Next, I have been wanting (and needing) to start another journal or planner or something to record daily scriptures again. I did this for three years, but I fell off this year and haven’t done it. I couldn’t decide on a format of how I wanted to do it.
So, I finally just brought out a Webster’s Pages notebook I’ve had for a long time and just got to work. It’s great for it to look nice, but the journaling and work I’m putting into it is the important part.
I decorated the cover with a sticker, and I also decorated the inside front page with Mambi stickers. Easy!
I literally just record the scripture each day, along with a few words about what the scripture means. I love this simple, but meaningful, structure.
I like to redecorate a few pages at a time, so when I’m ready to turn the page, there’s something pretty to look at while I’m journaling. 🙂
Finally, I also took another small notebook from my stash to use as a place to print & put my Illustrated Faith devotionals in.
I did print the devotionals out as a traveler’s notebook insert too, but I also liked the thought of them on a larger page, with a space for notes next to each page.
I really wanted this girl Micro Notes because the Micro Notes are too cute, and this is my favorite cover of that series. I did change the discs, as it came with blue ones. I also think it would look adorable with rose gold metal discs. I added a Planner Society bow too.
I have really been intrigued with these Half Notes Planners. I have some half sheets from the past year or so, and never quite knew how to make it work for me. I gathered them and made a “Fauxbonichi.” More on this in another post…
Lastly, I adored the Faith Notes Planner when I saw it on YouTube, and in person it’s even better. I wanted a newer faith planner and I like the themed sheets it came with, as well as the dark purple discs. I slid it in my Webster’s Pages Composition Planner, and I love it.
That’s it for my {mini} Happy Planner haul! Thanks for stopping by!
I have decorated my Bible because it inspires me to open it up. On the cover are sitckers from 
I have also added a few of these 
In my Psalms book, I have begun decorating. I added a Planner Society vellum paper at the beginning, and also tabbed the five books of Psalms.
I just received this 
I also have a small Illustrated Faith embellishment collection, which will be great for my new Bible Journaling journey. I feel this is a new direction for my crafting/scrapbooking/planning life. I am so excited to get started! It’s been weighing deeply on me to get my nose into God’s Word more. I hope to share more soon!
Thanks for stopping by!
This is my faith planner for this year. I do daily scriptures here, and keep a bunch of inspirational pieces in here. If it’s inspiring for me to look at, I’ll use it!
A view inside…
It’s starting to get kind of chunky, and I love it!
Would you like to see more of my faith planning/Bible journaling? Let me know!
I like taking photos of the signs they had waiting for all of us throughout the John S. Knight Center.
These are the paper collections I picked up…
And some embellishments…
I love the Latest & Greatest series of classes they offer- the photo below shows my haul! All from a single class!! It’s like Christmas, for real.
The other class I took was an Intro to Bible Journaling, hosted by a local bookstore. I have really been intrigued by bible journaling for such a long time now, so I jumped right in! More on this adventure in my next post…
I had such an amazing time- and I can’t wait until next year!
Thanks for stopping by today!
When you open up my planner, the first thing you notice area Glam Girl envelope and some sticky notes.
The first section is for important notes that I reference frequently. This is my cover page for that section- decked out in Planner Society paper and a puffy unicorn sticker from Michaels.
Then we move directly into my monthly and weekly planning.
I keep 2-3 months worth of weeklies in my planner, and store the other months in another planner. I am using the Glam Girl lined weekly inserts.
The next section is my faith planner.
The Happy Planner stencil comes in handy for writing daily scriptures.
The next section is the Trendsetter Happy Planner. I began the year with it, and then gave it up, and it’s back again! I am attempting to use it for blog, social media, and design project planner.
Then, I have a small memory keeping section.
Finally, I keep my pretty Happy Planner blank note paper in the back, so it’s handy for when an idea strikes!
I hope you enjoyed this look inside my Happy Planner! I’ll keep you updated on how it’s working for me!
