I know there are a lot of planner girls out there, so, today I'm sharing one of the ways that I like to expand the use of my planner; devotionals or scripture journaling.  I have an Adornit coloring planner and I like to use those "extra" pages" for weekly devotions.  It's nice to flip through now and then and be reminded of things that I need to work on.  Loving those who are hard to love is one of those things that I need to work on.  Can I get an Amen?!

I love incorporating the Adornit Art Play Paintables into my devotions.  It's a total no-brainer, for me.  For this project, I colored up the floral bouquet from the Sweet Blossoms collection, designed by owner/artist at Adornit, Carolee McMullins.

You can find many of the Adornit products at Scrapbook.com but some of the newest products can only be found at Adornit, such as the Sweet Blossoms collection and the new patriotic and summer

I also used the Adornit blender paper in this fun gray striped design, not only as a backdrop on my page, but also as a little edging to the right of my scripture.   In addition, I've used some of the Adornit planner stamps, stickers and even trimmed some elements from the Adornit "Family Path" scrapbook paper collection, the "blessings" sentiment and the yellow chevron arrows.  Adornit even has a fun selection of washi tape or decorative tape.  You can find that, here.

Here's a close-up of my coloring which was done with my Faber Castell watercolor pencils.  Did you know Adornit has now come out with a line of their own watercolor pencils that will be available soon in stores?  I can't wait to get my hands on them! 

This photo just doesn't capture all the sparkle and glitter from my Kaisercraft glitter pens.  All my writing was done with my black glitter pen and all those tiny dots you see, as well.  I use these fun glitter and gel pens on almost all my coloring projects for added sparkle.

Making Time to Color With the Adornit Coloring Planner #ad

Finding time to color has been difficult recently.  I love to color, but my super busy life has made little time for it.  So, I decided to bring a few supplies to work and squeeze in some coloring on my breaks and my lunch time.   I've also got some affiliate shopping links below because right now, through May 15th, you can get 20%-30% off planners and planner supplies!  The discount will show on the product page.  Sweet!

I'm coloring the May dashboard for my Adornit coloring planner.  It's got an amazing bee hive and I decided I would keep it low key with just 3 colors, starting with my Ranger Fossilized Amber distress ink.  That was my focal color.  I colored my flowers with it as well.  I threw in a couple of Tombow dual brush markers and watercolored by swiping on an acrylic block and picking up the color with my Tim Holtz water brush pen.

So how long did this take?  Less than one hour.  I can't tell you how fun it was to squeeze in some time even on a busy work day, and end up having a little relaxation and fun.  It's so worthwhile.  Plan the night before and toss your supplies into a tote bag.  The next day, grab 'em and go!

Since we're talking about coloring and planners, I thought I'd show you a peek at my May Calendar.  This was just the start but I wanted you to see how fun it is to take scrapbook paper and use it as a base for those planner squares.  I designed a cut file to make it super easy, using my Cricut Explore and designing a rounded corner 1.5" square.   I'm also using Adornit scrapbook paper on my May spread, featuring the Bumble papers and Adornit blender papers which has lots of fun designs, including the chevron pictured below. You can get single sheets of blender paper at Scrapbook.com or purchase the entire pack directly from adornit.com.  I love that the planner pages are blank so you can customize your own dates, too.

You can grab that free cut file for the Cricut Explore Design Space and get more planner inspiration right here.

To make the adhesive process quick, I like to run my squares through my Xyron Creative Station but a smaller sticker maker works too, or you can simply use an adhesive tape runner.
