Quick Page and Text Adjustment Tip

*Click Here for Credits*

Just thought I’d share another Bible verse quick page I made using the brag book by SMJ and Dani. I also used a notebook element from their collab kit to fill in the empty space behind the text. And here’s a little Photoshop tip for you:

Adjusting Text for Notepaper in Photoshop

Before I learned this tip I used to resize my text by trial and error, I even made separate layers for each line of text sometimes so that I could line it up on the notepaper. This way is much easier and faster. After typing your text in the selected font and size, open the “Character” window (Window>Character) to make your adjustments.   With your text selected, hover your mouse over the “Set the Leading” icon (circled in red below). The cursor will turn into a hand with arrows pointing outward from the index finger. Click and drag to the left or right to change the distance between the lines until they line up perfectly!

Another Faithbooking Idea

Remember when I was making those 4×6 cards with my weekly memory verses for a Bible study I was doing? I liked the idea so much that I have decided to keep making these, even though I have finished that study and moved on to a new one.

So here’s the latest:

And here’s the great idea that just came to me today: I used a 4×6 brag book page to make this memory verse card! I love the idea of designing all of the cards myself, but for those weeks when time is short, I plan to use these premade pages. They’re practical, quick and beautiful .  The page I used is from this brag book by Dani Mogstad and SMJ.

I also wrote a lot more of my thoughts about these memory verses in this post.

I forgot to mention that the new Bible study I’m doing with a group of ladies in my neighborhood is called Discerning the  Voice of God, by Priscilla Shirer - it’s WONDERFUL!

Fairies, Flowers and a Faithbook Page

Sorry, couldn’t resist the alliterative title .

Shabby Miss Jenn teamed up with Dani Mogstad to create this beautiful collaboration kit. I know I will get a lot of use out of this one - isn’t it wonderful??? If you hurry, you can grab the kit for 20% off AND get a free 4×6 brag book with your purchase. This is an awesome deal – I plan to make this brag book too – it is one the best I’ve seen!

This kit was PERFECT for this sweet photo of my friend and her daughter:

And here’s another faithbooking page! I made this a week or two ago, and it is in response to a new Bible study I’m doing called Discerning the Voice of God, by Priscilla Shirer (a really great study, by the way). I’m pretty much finished with the Beth Moore study that I made my first faithbooking page from, and I still plan to make a book of pages from that study too. I was just inspired by what I was learning in my current study, so I put this page together . The study asked me to list the attributes of God described in Habakkuk 1:12-13, then write a prayer expressing my faith that God is in control of my life. I have found that making these faithbook pages has helped me to think even more carefully about my Bible studies, which is always a good thing .

I used Shabby Poppies, by Shabby Miss Jenn to create this page .
