Illustrated Faith | Set A Fire

Hi everyone!  I’m so happy to be here and share this new song journal entry in my new praise book for Illustrated Faith.  This song (Set A Fire Down In My Soul) by Jesus Culture has really been resonating with me lately. I decided to use it as an inspiration for my page. I have been asking God to make me stronger and to gain a closer relationship with Him through trials and tribulations that I have been going though.

The journaling is from the song and it reads ” Set a fire down in my soul that I can’t contain, that I can’t control.  I want more of you God”.  I could have gone on and on, if only I had more room.  To start off my page I  used a mix of paints, stamps and stickers across my page.  The flowers and chipboard art are from the She Blooms collection.

This message is so deep in my soul right now and I hope that you gain some inspiration from it too.

Illustrated Faith | Believe

This is a personal blog.  All editorial content and projects are intellectual property of  http://www.illustratedfaith.com/  I do receive financial compensation and material product from Illustrated Faith to develop my craft posts, but all ideas and opinions are my own.


Hiya friends!  I had a post on the Illustrated Faith blog this week sharing how to create a pocket page within your devotional.

 "Blessed is she who has believed that the Lord would fulfill his promises to her!"  Luke 1:45 NIV.  In this verse Mary believed what the angel had spoke to her.  She was blessed not only in the act of believing, but because her promise would certainly be fulfilled.  In your personal walk with the Lord are you listening to his voice and believing in his promises?

Creating a pocket within your advent journal

If you're like me, you have a love for pockets and extra spaces to keep tags, notes and special reminders.  I decided to create my own handmade pocket within my advent journal.  First, start by measuring the dimensions of your pages.  Next, take your desired patterned paper and fold it in half (making sure that both sides will fit into the measurement of your book).  Use your paper trimmer or scissors to cut off excess paper.

Trim a second piece of patterned paper into a small strip and adhere to the top of your folded pocket page.

Use a sewing machine and white thread to stitch all three sides of the pocket page, left, bottom and right (being sure to keep the top portion open).  Stitch page directly into book.

Place tags, paper clips and other notes and memorabilia into your stitched pocket page and enjoy!
