I was flipping through one of my first Journaling Bibles the other day (this one here) and I came upon one of my favorite Bible journaling pages, which was this two-page entry with watercolor branches.

Psalms 143:6 “I stretch out my hands to you; my soul thirsts for you like a parched land.”
When I read this verse I knew I needed to journal it in my Bible. Of course, the first thing to pop into my mind was a desert. I decided to paint this desert scene and add some simple lettering. I felt like it was the perfect representation of this verse, and that helped me to stay focused on the Word while painting it. My soul thirsts for you Lord!

It’s used in art to cover a section of your canvas or paper so that you can paint over it and then peel the masking fluid off and reveal what was underneath it (i.e. white canvas/paper). There are SO MANY ways that masking fluid can be used. Today I’m just showing a glimpse of it.

Have you heard of the Bible journaling “napkin technique”? It’s a very common technique in the Bible journaling community and for good reason! It’s easy to do, not all too expensive, and you can create beautiful pages with endless designs.

I had a short time while the baby napped to do some Bible journaling, so I decided to do a quick and easy watercolor background so that I could try out some of the new colors. This watercolor background is so simple that anyone can do it. It’s particularly great for those just starting out with adding paint to their Bible.
