Last week I got the chance to share at a local Mom’s Group about ways we can inspire creativity in our kids.
One of the things we talked about was giving kids (and ourselves) creative boosts or “jumping off points.” Because, let’s face it: a blank white page can be intimidating to even the most artistic among us. Something my kids always loved when they were younger was to have me start a project that they could finish however they wanted to. Kind of like training wheels for creativity.
These printables were created with that idea in mind. Simple black and white outlines that can be painted, colored, glued to, collaged, or anything else that strikes your fancy. Each has a few key words from a special scripture along with the reference so you can look it up and add the rest of the verse in your own handwriting.

Here’s the masterpieces my ten year old created, all on her own, complete with added texture and sparkle. Aren’t they amazing? And, as always, we’d absolutely love to see what you create!
