Bonita Rose - May Grace Box | Inside My Journal

Hello there CTK fans and subscribers!
It's Bonita Rose here!
Happy Memorial Day Monday! 


Today I wanted to share with you

a page inside one of my journals!

I'm using this smaller leather bound journal

(found at my local Barnes & Noble)

as an Art Journal/Faith Journal of sorts -- 

so I had to use! some of the stamps included

 in the May Grace Box for this page!

Creating with your monthly stamps doesn't have to be hard!

For this page, I swooshed on some paint, let dry,
stamped my text.
Next I added some journaling lines, I wrote what was
on my heart, added some puffy hearts, some washi, and a flower!

What I wrote here is something
I never want to forget.

Choose Hope

My journaling reads: 

When life changes, and there are times when I am struggling,

Lord, help me to trust in You.

Strengthen my HOPE. 

During the hard times, 

help me to turn my eyes to You.

Only YOU.

Supplies used:

- stamp set, May Grace Box

- puffy hearts, May Grace Box

- washi tape, Illustrated Faith

- Flower and leaf, Prima Marketing

- date stamp

May Gracebox kit: Nehemiah 4:20

Hi everyone, it's Gina L. here today to share with you how I am using the May Gracebox kit!  This kit is perfect for fitting all of your bible journaling needs.

The bible verse that I decided to highlight is Nehemiah 4:20 "Wherever you hear the sound of the trumpet, join us there. Our God will fight for us!" Because this verse is so happy and full of praise, I chose happy and vibrant paints and supplies from the kit.

To start I painted pink, teal and yellow acrylic paints across my page.  Once the paint dried, I used the Tim Holtz Lace stencil with modeling paste.  Tip: I like to use a heat gun between layers to help the paint dry quicker.

I stamped the praise the Lord for the Lord is good stamp (included in the kit) onto a separate piece of white cardstock and adhered it onto the right side of my spread.

Next, I added some die cuts and puffy stickers from the kit.  I finished up by stamping the chevron stamp next to the verse that I'm highlighting.  I also stamped the date that I did the page.

The May Gracebox kit is sold out, but you can sign up now to start a subscription in June.
I can't wait to see what you create!
