Proverbs 21-25

Can you Andre the tent in the corner of the roof? 

Baby, teen, Mom and Grandma--stages of life

Oops! I need to fix this! Should be chapter 23!

This time I played with lettering

Apples of gold

Proverbs 16-20

Chapter 16: I haven't gone gray yet, but I will wear it with pride!

Proverbs 16

Chapter 17: Grandma and Grandpa Brinkley always had a plaque on the wall in the kitchen that said,:

"It's better to silent and thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt".

I found an owl on Google images and added a jester's hat (also found on Google).

Proverbs 17

Chapter 18: As soon as I read this verse, I knew I wanted to make "the name(s) of the Lord" into bricks in the tower. If you look closely, you'll see me looking out the window after running to safety.

Proverbs 18

Chapter 19: I knew what wanted to draw here, but I had a hard time with it. I attempted to draw several versions of someone sleeping. My husband thought it looked like she was in a coffin. I guess she is resting very contently! :)

Proverbs 19

Chapter 20: I had fun with the rubies and gold bars. Still not happy with my people drawing skills. But I will get there!

Proverbs 20

Proverbs 11-15

Proverbs 11. Like a gold ring in a pig snout is a beautiful woman who lacks discretion.
I tried to draw cleavage on my "discetionless" woman.

Proverbs 11

Chapter 12: I want to a crown to my husband, not be like decay in his bones!

Proverbs 12

Proverbs 13. I'm pretty happy with this light house! Inspiration from here.

Proverbs 13

Chapter 14. I found some houses on Google (images, line drawings). I like the way it turned out.

Proverbs 14

Chapter 15. Again, not happy with my people drawing skills, but I think the point is made.

Proverbs 5-10

Proverbs 5: May your fountain be bless and may you rejoice in the wife of your youth.
I am not happy with my people drawing skills, but I'll get better as I practice.

Proverbs 6: Go to the ant you sluggard. (Okay, so my slug doesn't look much like a slug!)

Proverbs 6

I seem to be missing the picture from Proverbs 7. I'll add it later.

Chapter 8: By God, kings and rulers make laws.

Proverbs 8

Here is where I found my old scrapbook markers!

Chapter 9, Wisdom is prepared!

Proverbs 9

Proverbs 10. I was working on this verse the day of the Supreme Court ruling on marriage. Hatred (on either side of the issue) does nobody any good.  I made the sin rainbow colored, not to represent the "Pride" flag, but to remind me that sin comes in all colors.  The sin I struggle with may not be the sin you struggle with.  And sin is sin in God's eyes. We are called to love.

Proverbs 10

Proverbs 1-4

I started with a cover page that highlights some important parts of Proverbs: wisdom, learning, and listening.

The inside cover of my Proverbs journal

For chapter 1, I focused on the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. To show the beginning, I made a starting line.

Proverbs 1

Chapter 2 focused on the benefits of wisdom (which are many!) I decided to do a play on words with "happy feet" to represent "pleasant to your soul".

Proverbs 2

Chapter 3 is how to find favor with God and man.

Proverbs 4: Guard your heart--it is the wellspring of life!
