Worthy Written Words Blog / tutorial

A fresh, new Book of Mormon calls for a little mess and a whole lot of heart.   

Here is my first process video I have ever made. This video will walk you through how I made this image in my scriptures using the "I'll Never Desert You" freebie traceable and some watercolors. This also includes how to fix major mess-ups like smudging. So you can replicate this in your own regular or large scriptures! I learned a lot about how to make the next video much better for you to follow along. So excuse how far away it is for some of it, my hat, hat hair, etc. haha!

 

Supplies needed:

I'll Never Desert You Freebie Watercolors and water brush or paint brush
Clear Gesso
Gelly Roll pens green and black

optional supplies-

craft tool heat gun
light board for tracing or window

As I created this video I couldn't stop comparing mine to others I've seen online. For one thing, my nails are NOT manicured. Sigh. I ain't got time for that! It is very non professional as my lighting is off and since I don't have a bending tripod for my iPhone, I literally TAPED MY PHONE TO AN ACRYLIC SEWING RULER that was stacked in-between my storage baskets, which is why you see a basket on the side of the video the whole time! Occasionally I would breathe too hard or bump the table and the whole phone would wobble up and down for a bit! Why am I sharing all of this with you?!? Because I am just an honest mom and stay at home wife trying to share my passion with the world and I'm ok with that. So as humbling as my video skills are, I think what I'm sharing is pretty awesome and would love for you to check it out!

Although it is studying lds content, the templates shown inside will work for any religion. This video is meant to give you ideas on what you can put inside your journals as well as show you how to use some of the templates and products that are sold in the store.
