Welcome to the festive month of December!
Let's do this!!
Tis the season to create some Christmas-y pages!
You can access this blog post on Joy to select some verses to create with on any of the Christmas templates: Bells, Ornaments, Nativity are just a few!
We'll be creating on the "Home in Winter" featured template in the 2023 Monthly BQJ and you're welcome to create along with us! I'm experimenting with some white puffy paint to get some snow texture on my page.
December in the 2023 BQ Calendar
The Nativity Scene is always a meaningful page to do during this season:
Mine developed gradually over a couple of weeks, so don't let the busy-ness of the season thwart your small pockets of creative time.
You can also do what I now call "freestyle" pages along the same theme. It's an entirely different look and process, which can really get those creative juices flowing!
Overview of 2023 Monthly BQJ Topics
Here's a blog post that shows all of my 2-page spreads for our 2023 topics, including links to original posts and video links summarizing the daily verses. Hope it inspires you to put the finishing touches on your own journal...or if you didn't do this particular one, motivates you to try it!
...and a flip through of my completed 2023 BQ Calendar:

I know it's a busy season all around. I'm trying to get the BQ orders out as quickly as I can so you have time to gift them for the holidays or have time to prep them for using in the New Year.
Hope you're able to capture some chunks of time to settle your spirit and pray about your direction for next year.
