Hello and Happy day to you!

In this lesson, we're drawing and coloring on a paper bag! Yippee! This is so fun to do for holidays, birthdays, and everything in between! This takes gift giving to a whole new level where you can customize everyone's gift!

For this bag, I'm drawing (with Faber Castell marker) and painting (with Prima Marketing watercolors) a girl based on Isaiah 9:2!

Have fun coming up with bag designs! You can be a fashion designer for bags! Draw girls, cakes, flowers, hearts, verses, and more on these paper bags!

Love to you!

It's a happy day and we're painting an Isaiah 6:8 Girl!!

“Here am I, send me.” —Isaiah 6:8

Get your black marker out to start the outline! I start with the head, making a "U" like shape, then drawing the hair and face. Then, make a small neck and draw the dress! I'm giving her flowers to hold as well! I also wrote Isaiah 6:8

Once you've finished the outline, you can start adding watercolors! Paint the hair, dress, and everything else whatever colors you'd like! Of course, I'm a big fan of PINK!

Happy Day to you!

Let's Doodle a winter wren together!!

We can be inspired by the winter wren with our walk with God!

Start by using a black marker (I'm using a Faber Castell marker), drawing the birdie first, then an oval border around it! 

Once you've drawn the outline, you can paint in the colors with watercolors (I use Prima Marketing watercolors, you can find on Amazon!).

Then add whatever little doodads around the wren!

Happy Birdie painting!

Happy Journaling day to you!

We're drawing a journal girl, based on my Yellow Journal Girl painting!

For this lesson, I'm using a Faber Castell marker (for the outline), and Prima Marketing watercolors to fill this journal girl in with COLOR!

 “She knew that she was formed by God's hand, dreamed up in His heart and placed in this world for a purpose.”

 Happy day to you!

Hello to you!

During this fun freebie, we are writing our hopes and dreams! Get out your markers, paper, or any other materials you might want to use and let's start dreaming! 

“The glory of God is man [Or insert your name] fully alive.” St. Irenaeus

Let's live this out in our lives! Today, I'm 

“God can do anything you know. Far more than you could ever imagine or guess or request in your wildest dreams! He does it not by pushing us around but by working within us,  his spirit deeply and gently within us.” —Ephesians 3:30 MSG

You can doodle around this verse, and then, make a card that has your WILDEST hopes and dreams!

Happy dreaming to you!

Happy Day!

Join me in this video as we have a time of devotion! 

Blessings to you!

I love reading through Isaiah, and this chapter in particular speaks to me so much. Isaiah 61 reminds us we are anointed! 

“To care for the needs for all who mourn in Zion, give them bouquets of roses instead of ashes.” Isaiah 61 MSG

I truly think creating is a healing balm. So as we doodle this verse, we can heal from whatever we may be going through! 

Using a Faber-Castell SB pen, I'm going to draw out this verse in a very simple way. I wrote out the verse and then doodled a rose border around it.

Then, using watercolors (or magic markers), fill in the roses with pink and the leaves with green. I'm using Prima Marketing watercolors (You can find on Amazon).

Keep adding! I'm a maximalist, so I painted a border around the verse and then stripes in the background.

Using washi tape, I taped on a portion of a hymn that reads, "God is my refuge, God is my Strength"

Love to you!

Let's get ready for fall and paint a watercolor pumpkin!!

I start by using a Faber-Castell SB brush pen to draw a circle like shape, leaving an opening at the top. Then, draw the stem! Draw curved lines within the circle to indicate the grooves in the pumpkin.

Cut out the top of the pumpkin, leaving space at the bottom for a verse. With the same pen, I wrote the verse, "So those who went off with heavy hearts will come home laughing with armloads of blessing." —Psalm126 (MSG)

Now, I'm going in with Prima Marketing watercolors and filling in the pumpkin with happy orange and pinks, the leaves with green, and details of tomato reds!

Happy Pumpkin Day!

Happy Day to you!!

Today we're sketching a Wonky and Fun coffee cup! 

“The place God calls you to is the place where your deep gladness and the world’s deep hunger meet.” —Frederick Buechner

I'm using a Faber Castell brush brush pen and colorful markers!
