I have literally never thought to paint with an old gift card, but I absolutely LOVE the effect! You've opened up a whole new world and inspired me, so thank you so much! Can't wait to try this out in my own prayer journal. By the way, those stamps are incredible, I am definitely putting them on my wish list! Take care and I hope your journal brings you great happiness
Baby wipes make great paintbrushes. I just kinda pinch it n a wad n drop paint directly onto it then just rub it onto the page. It allows you to blend colors also and the moisture makes it semi-see thru so I can still see my lines or grid underneath. Dylusions has several UA-cam videos on this. I then use the baby wipes when dry to die cut flowers so they aren't wasted.
Just started bible journaling and I love your videos...not to mention the swipe painting. And I have always used the end of the paint brush. They also make great dots of different sizes after you mix the paint with them! :)
I love how simple you make using acrylic paints! I bought a few colors the last time I was at ACMoore so I'm gonna' give it a try with some old gift cards I have been saving. Blessings and Happy Crafting, Denise
I know this is an old video but I'm so glad I got across it because I love your technics and so using it on my TN. I'm brand new to journaling and I'm already excited to start this beautiful project tomorrow
Hello I love the way u created beautiful sipirtual message in art. Im. I'm from India so I can't have all this beautiful stamps available here. But will try to paint them. Thank u for sharing.
You have such great ideas!!! So simple yet so powerful...I want to make prayer journals for some ladies at church. You gave me a great idea. 🙏🏽 such a blessing.
This is amazing! I was looking at ideas for a prayer journal and I stumbled across this. I think she's awesome! She's a great artist, she creative, and she replies to her fans a lot! Who else agrees?
now this i can do, the other faith journals, so creative, but i dont know how to make there stuff, this is easy, thank you jesus and thanks, jill, blessings,
I want to make a prayer journal for my daughter. You gave me some great ideas and I love the way you use a card to paint with. The patterns are random and each one is unique. Thanks for sharing...:)
those are so cute and simple. you are so creative. thank you for sharing. you gave me some good ideas. but i have to say the use of the credit card was my favorite
What a cute idea. It's better than my prayer journal which is a catch all actually. Sermon notes both from my church and a pastor I watch on UA-cam (Charles Larson- amazing amazing tell it how it is southern pastor), and ideas for future bible journaling entires and my notes from studying the Bible. This is more organized. I have an extra leather illustrated faith journal (got for $4 from Christian book store that closed down and was on mega sale) and been waiting to figure out what to use it for. I think I'll do this. Thanks.
Hello Jillsky oh great 👍🏻. Be sure to check out his sermon on hell. It'll have a line in the tittle of something like best sermon ever!! And it truly is.
I just ran across your channel this past week and I'm binge watching! I love it!! Thanks for sharing. I love all of your personal stories of scripture. It's beautiful! Did you ever update the prayer journal? I'd love to see more of this and how it turned out. Also, what were the white trio pack of books called that you got at Michaels? Thanks!
Hi, Lyn! I haven't shared an update partly because there's so much personal info in there. Mostly I continued the same paint techniques and color scheme. Sometimes I'd add a paper diecut along with my writing :)
Makes total sense. I spent the morning at Michaels and can't find the books at all. 🙁 I'm not sure if it's just mine or they aren't selling them anymore. Fingers crossed that I find them. I think they are perfect for many things.
Hi, Sharon! I went to the Citrus Twist shop and filtered the products by type and then manufacturer (Citrus Twist). It's called the Prayer Box stamp by Jessy Christopher. Hope that helps! :)
I really enjoyed this video! :) Your journal turned out very pretty. I really want to start experimenting with paints in my own journal. I just posted a video of a prayer journal I made for my boyfriend in which I used a lot of watercolor, but I haven't tried much acrylic yet. I really like those stamps you have too!
Laura Elizabeth ☺️ you could use gelatos for a wash of color, but I recommend "practicing" different paint techniques on scrap paper or in a notebook. I did that while waiting for my bible to arrive and then once I received it I just jumped right in 😊💕
Laura Elizabeth you could repeat stamp faith images or words / phrases in pale inks across the page(s) - it would be like custom scrapbooking paper - then with darker ink (pen/marker) you could journal on top of your stamping - or use journal cards or images from greetings or notecards - then stamp or handprint your scripture to be memorized or devotional thought for that week - if you’re a scrapbooker or planner break out your washi stash and lay down some great splashes of colour across your page with it - lots of ways to add colour to your faith journaling without painting - easiest might be using pencil crayons to create a “cloud” of colour to stamp or print something inspirational across that you want highlighted - you don’t need paint right away - just dive in with colour that isn’t so intimidating or messy - you’ll find something that works for you and that brings glory to God 🙂😉🙏
Crazy Curly Hair hi! 😀 I use the NIV journal edition bible from Zondervan. I can't link it in the comments for some reason but I've included it in the video description 😊
Hello "hello jillsky:)" I found you through Lindsay Decor and I have a quick question. But first - I love what you all are doing! Thank you for inspiring us to integrate our creativity with our faith! Had a quick question about how you store you stamps! I can see you flipping thru something off camera a bit when you go to grab a new stamp. What are you using? They look super organized and easy to store!!
Hi, Vicki! Thanks so much for watching! Lindsey has a great channel :) I store my clear stamps in a 6x8 album, I think I reference it in this video if you'd like more info ua-cam.com/video/_jjO0bIhlqg/v-deo.html
if you go to the citrus twist site, head to the shop and select stamping and then the citrus twist brand and they're alllllll the way down at the bottom ;)

Hello Jillsky I'm working on it. 😁👌🏽
Love this! I am trying to make one of these. I have the first page with a prayer on it but that's as far as I've gotten so far.
This is amazing! I was looking at ideas for a prayer journal and I stumbled across this. I think she's awesome! She's a great artist, she creative, and she replies to her fans a lot! Who else agrees?
Aww, thank you Zoie!
I'm going to start on my prayer journal too. I always tend to miss out one prayer so this will help me out a lot x

Beautiful! I love it! I've been prepping mine as well. I have an A5, because I write big, lol so I need lots of room for prayer requests
Swiping paint around! Love it! 💗

where did you buy the stamp set you used? I looked on Citrus Twist Kits web site and did not see it. I love your prayer journal!
Hi, Sharon! I went to the Citrus Twist shop and filtered the products by type and then manufacturer (Citrus Twist). It's called the Prayer Box stamp by Jessy Christopher. Hope that helps! :)

Thanks, girl 💛 Yours was jam packed with great prompts! Lucky guy!
+Hello Jillsky thanks so much for taking the time to watch! :) I look forward to more of your videos!
What would I look for on Ebay to find these really cheap notebooks please?
They’re called traveler’s notebook inserts and you can find them all over the Internet- Amazon has a great selection 💛
Awesome journal!!
Love this! But I'm still afraid of trying out paints. Do you know any alternatives where I can still add color to my pages?
Laura Elizabeth ☺️ you could use gelatos for a wash of color, but I recommend "practicing" different paint techniques on scrap paper or in a notebook. I did that while waiting for my bible to arrive and then once I received it I just jumped right in 😊💕
