Glorious Mysteries of the Rosary Bible Margin Stickers (or bookmarks!)

Journaling Bibles are one of my very, very favorite prayer tools. I have several Bibles and use them in different ways- one is marked up with notes, cross references, content from studies. But I also have a journaling Bible that I pray with using art- after reading, I've lettered favorite verses, added watercolor, drawn and painted illustrations, and embellished with stickers and holy cards. My heart is drawn to beauty, and this method of encountering the Scriptures has helped me to dwell with the word of God. 

The Bible I use for artistic Bible journaling is this one (affiliate links), and then I also have another journaling Bible that typically lives at school with me to use during prayer time and visits to the chapel- that one I have slowly been lettering a verse from each chapter in the margins. (It will take me years to get through the whole Bible!). I haven't posted about Bible journaling in quite a while, but I added some links at the end of this post to other info I've shared about my favorite pens, how to add art, and even how you can be creative with a non-journaling Bible if you are interested in going back through the archives!

When I started using my journaling Bible six or seven years ago, I also had an etsy shop. I used some of the art that I had created for my Bible and turned them into printables that could be downloaded and stuck in the margins of a Bible. It's a fun way to still add art and creativity, but with a tool to start the process. Since I've closed my etsy shop, I'm now sharing those resources here for you as freebies to use in your Bible, prayer journal, or planner!

This set for the Glorious Mysteries of the Rosary is part of a set for each Mystery- matching up the story with an image inspired by Sacred art and a passage from the Gospel. You can find the other sets of Mysteries here:

Joyful Mysteries

Luminous Mysteries

Sorrowful Mysteries

Here are some ideas for how to use these doodles:
-Print on a sticker sheet (full page mailing labels are an inexpensive way to do this!), cut, and stick directly into your Bible. 

-Print on cardstock, regular paper, or vellum- stick in with a glue stick or a piece of washi tape along one side

Or, if you don't plan to use in a journaling Bible, these make great bookmarks or Scripture memorization/prayer cards! (Perfect to cut apart and give to students!)

There are two pages in the pdf- one page features the watercolor paintings with a handlettered verse from the Gospels for each Mystery, and the other download is blank for you to use just the images or to add lettering yourself.

“The Rosary is the book of the blind, where souls see and there enact the greatest drama of love the world has ever known; it is the book of the simple, which initiates them into mysteries and knowledge more satisfying than the education of other men; it is the book of the aged, whose eyes close upon the shadow of this world, and open on the substance of the next. The power of the Rosary is beyond description.”  ~Venerable Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen
