After reading my last post, where I said, "I'll post more tomorrow!"
 I feel so sheepish. 
Like such a liar all the time! 
NEVER promise something unless you know without a shadow of a doubt that you will be able to keep that promise! No matter how small it may seem, like, "I'll post more tomorrow!" 
What if your tomorrow never comes? IF you have anyone who is expecting your post, or even counting on it, you will leave them wondering and disappointed.  
So, to any of you out there whom I have disappointed, I am sorry. 
Now, on to the posting!


The Sketchbook Project is coming to a fast approaching close come January and I have finished almost all my pages! I rushed through one of them, you'll probably be able to tell which, but I am most of the way happy with how they all turned out. My daughter, Emilee even contributed a page for me, and I may have her do one, possibly two more for me since I have a few blank pages in there that are just crying to have some color on them!

Here's the front and back cover:
Emi drew my second page artwork ;)
After much deliberation and procrastination, 
I decided to make the theme of my Sketchbook Project, The Fruits of the Spirit.

Each page has Galatians 5:22 written out with a fruit emboldened as it's main topic.
Then, I added several more scriptures that also use the same main topic word in them.
My hope is to touch someone's soul with scriptures
To share with as many people as I can through The Sketchbook Project.
It was on my heart to do something like this when I decided to join the project
I pray that someone is blessed by my work.
Here's the Fruit my 10 year old said I needed to work on, lol ;)
I still need to work on the inside covers of the book, and then rebind it, but I have several more weeks before it's due!
I'll post them when they are finished along with a few more pages that I still need to complete.
Blessings to all!!

Absolutely beautiful! and such wonderful messages. I wish I could see it for real. I am proud of you for finishing. And for even starting... this is coming from me, the owner of not one, but two incomplete, not even started (because it overwhelmed and intimidated me) Sketchbook Project moleskins. So way to go!

painterchic! Thank you for the kind words! Don't let not finishing, or even starting projects discourage you! Trust me, I have MANY projects that have been started, not even started, and a Sketchbook that I did ONE page in, that are still just sitting around my studio! Take one thing at a time and encourage yourself with each completed project. I know you can do it! :D
