HearttoCreateStudio

Hi, I'm Carrie, the artist and teacher behind HeART to Create. Although my Etsy store is new with Art kits for women, I'm been teaching hearts of all ages with my Bible Art for kids at Forget Him Knot.

I've spent many years teaching art and encouraging people to create, and somewhere along the way one thought kept coming back to me: our creativity comes from the Creator.

That's really where HeART to Create began.

I wanted to make something for women that brought together two things I love—creating art and spending time in God's Word—but I didn't want it to feel like another full Bible study to finish or an art project you needed special skills to tackle.

I wanted it to feel more like an invitation.

Open the package.
Get out your paints.
Read the Scripture.
Make something.
Notice something you may not have noticed before.

I've taught art long enough to know that a blank canvas can be intimidating. Every age from preschool to adults stare at me with wide eyes when that white canvas is set before them. So you won't have to start there. I create the artwork, paint the examples, and make the videos so you have somewhere to begin. You can follow what I do, change the colors, experiment, or completely make it your own.

And no, yours doesn't have to look exactly like mine. I actually hope it doesn't. :)

Each HeART to Create kit is built around Scripture and includes more than the painting itself. You'll find little pieces to read, keep, and reflect on along the way. Some projects are quiet and thoughtful. Some are cheerful. Some are meant to be shared with a child, grandchild, friend, or a ladies group.

Because sometimes creating together is the best part.

My hope isn't simply that you finish with something pretty.

I hope the products gives you a reason to slow down for a little while, use the creativity God gave you, and turn your attention back toward Him.

You don't have to be an artist.... just have a HeART to Create!


Let's spend a creative moment with God together.
