New Printables!

Hello friends!

How are things in your corner of the world? I know I've been super quiet over here on the blog, but if you follow me on Instagram or Facebook you know I've been keeping myself busy with lots of new projects. And I have an exciting one to share with you!

I'm super excited to be back in the Illustrated Faith Print & Pray shop with some new printables! "Give it all you've got" is my motto these days, and all of these designs were created with motivation and encouragement in mind. 💛 

The first set is full of fun ephemera including rainbows, lettering & of course coffee cups, washi strips, and lots of cute hexies. 

And the second is a set of four patterned papers...

There are so many fun projects you can create with these sets! They are fantastic for not only bible journaling, but scrapbooking, adding to your paper planner, card-making, art journaling, and really any sort of paper crafting.  

You can check them both out, as well as my other printables, here!

Gratitude - New Illustrated Faith Printables

Hello friends and happy weekend!

Isn't Friday night the best? Around here we always have an easy dinner (tonight it was homemade pizza) and put on a movie. Tonight it was Transformers. I wonder who picked that one? ;)

So much to be grateful for.

And speaking of gratitude, I have two new printable sets for Illustrated Faith this month, and the theme is all about it. 

The first set is something you can use at your Thanksgiving table. It includes a set of place cards, and some lovely big feathers you can use in so many ways.

The feathers are great for handing out to your family and asking them to write on the back what they are grateful for. You can collect them in a bowl or platter, or hang them with yarn on a pretty branch or tree. 

The second set is full of images, patterned paper, and journaling cards to use in your bible, planner, or scrapbooking!

I hope you enjoy these sets and I would love to see how you use them!

New Fall Printable

Happy Monday friends!

How was your weekend? Mine was filled with board meetings for work, BUT I'm off today and enjoying a quiet morning at home so that certainly helps. 

You know what else helps? A cute new fall inspired printable set in my Etsy shop!

I created this set with scrapbooking in mind, but it would be lovely for using in your planner, art journal, or journaling bible!

The set includes over 30 stickers/die cuts and four patterned papers. 

I like to print the image sheets on either white or clear full sheet label paper to create stickers. And I used white cardstock for the papers, although you could certainly use sticker paper if you wanted to!

Last night I pulled out a mini album to start working on a fall instagram photo book (even though I haven't printed any photos yet - those will come!)

If you want to see a bit of my process with this, you can check out my Instagram stories, but hurry because they will only be available through today!

This set also coordinates well with my latest Illustrated Faith set. A girl can never have too many fall leaves or coffee cups in her sticker collection, am I right? 

Sending lots of happy fall vibes your way,

Lots of News!

Hello friends! Happy Tuesday!

How is your week going so far? The past few weeks have been so crazy with the hurricanes and wild fires. If you've been in the path of any of them I certainly hope you and your families are doing OK.  

I wanted to share a big update on what's been happening in the world of Mandy Ford Art & Illustration!

Things have been busy and so good. Feeling really thankful. 

First up is my September printable set with Illustrated Faith!

I have more and more fun each month creating this kits, and when I realized I could draw all things autumn for September I was over the moon happy!

It is chock full of fall goodness and I hope you love it! I printed these out on white sticker paper and plan to use them in some fall scrapbooking projects.

Next up is a new product for me - CANDLES!

Yes, candles! 

I am super excited about this collaboration with The Candle Creative.

I have three different designs available with them, and you can choose from lots of really yummy scents. I am partial to the lemon poppyseed and the pumpkin roll. Mmmmmm!

Grab them today through 9/17 and get 15% off with code "MANDY" & enter a super fun giveaway over on their Instagram account for $100 shop credit, an 8x10 "sweater weather" print from me, and lots of other goodies!

And finally, a reminder to check out my first class with Big Picture Classes, Doodling Nature!

Did you know BPC is a subscription site, and you can do a free one month trial? So there is absolutely NOTHING to lose. And there are so many super fun and inspiring classes on there. Soon to be added in October - a lettering class from me!

(Sneak peek up there)

Ooh and ONE more thing! If you are a local friend, save the date for October 20th! I'm going to have a booth at this fun event again this year!

Working on some brand new goodies for it including TEA TOWELS! Eeeeek! (<---kinda sorta excited about that one.)

Sending the happiest of Tuesday vibes to you!

Hello friends! Happy Tuesday!

I'm home on a day off of work today, and I finally have time to say hello! 

So hello! 

How are things? How has your August been so far?

Around here we have kids back in school, lots of fun art projects (and deadlines!), and I'm catching up today on all of the things that help me rest and find my breath.

And speaking of rest, I'm so happy to share my newest printable set with Illustrated Faith, Return to Rest.



I was a bit nervous that this set wouldn't come together, as it was due during the busiest week of my entire year so far, but I couldn't be happier with the sweet and encouraging images I was able to create. 


I even snuck a coffee mug in this time! 


And that floral print just makes my heart sing. I hope it does for you too. 

The thing I really love about these printables is that they aren't created solely for bible journaling. You can use them in an art journal, scrapbooking, in your planner, or for paper crafting.

And you can print them on white or clear sticker paper which makes them into instant stickers. I really love that. 

Grab the kit here! You can also see all of my available monthly printable sets here. 

Hugs and happy August vibes to you!

July Kit with Illustrated Faith

Happy Sunday friends!

I hope you're having a relaxing and wonderful weekend. I realized this morning I haven't shared my new kit with Illustrated Faith over here on the blog yet!

I chose a lovely verse for this kit from Song of Solomon...



And I used a mix of hand painted watercolor and digital drawing with this kit - a first for me! It was a challenge and one that I'm so glad I didn't give up on, because I think this mix really gives it depth. 

Here is an example of how the kit was used in a journaling bible...so lovely!

And here are a few resources to help you use the kit:

We R Memory Keepers tab punch

Full sheet sticker paper
Full sheet clear labels

Hope you have a fabulous day!

June Kit with Illustrated Faith

Happy Tuesday friends!

I'm so happy to share with you that my third kit with Illustrated Faith is now up in the Print & Pray shop! 

This kit is basically my love letter to God's creation. It is inspired by Isaiah 40:22...

This kit is full of all things summer and spilling over with awe for the magical nature that surrounds us.

And if you don't have fireflies where you live, I've included two super cute ones for you!

You can grab the kit here!
