Free Creation Folio (Jan Blog Train)

12bibleeras folio freebie

Every month, DigitalScrapbook.com hosts a community Blog Train—one shared journey, many designers, one beautiful color palette. January’s palette was soft, warm, and gently vintage, and as soon as I saw it, I knew exactly what it needed to become. Creation. 🌿

I blended the January Blog Train colors with my Creation Kit palette to design this Creation Folio Freebie: a peaceful, layered folio made for reflection, Scripture, and storytelling. Think of it like gathering the first pages of a journal before the story even begins.

We’re starting the new year by walking through the Bible together, one era at a time—beginning with Creation. This 8-minute video gives a simple overview of the 12 Bible Eras and what you can expect.

This is the kit we are using for the Creation Era Class

A Head Start for Creation Class Students

If you’re enrolled in the 12 Bible Eras Class, starting with the Creation Era, this freebie is especially for you. You don’t have to wait until January 5 to begin. You can start now.

This folio fits beautifully into your Creation journal and gives you a gentle on-ramp—cutting, layering, tucking verses, and settling into the rhythm of journaling through Scripture before the lessons officially open.

Like warming up your hands before you start to write.

Why Creation Comes First

Creation is not just the first chapter of the Bible.It is the foundation of everything that follows.

  • Order before chaos.
  • Light before understanding.
  • A good God before a broken world.

This folio was designed to feel like that beginning—soft greens, warm peaches, quiet neutrals, and timeless imagery that invites you to slow down and listen.

How to Use This Freebie

  • Add it to a Creation journal or Treasure Journal

  • Use it digitally or print it for a tactile, hands-on experience

  • Pair it with Scripture reading in Genesis 1–2

  • Let it become a place where order, beauty, and truth meet

There’s no right or wrong way—only an invitation to begin.

If you are Creating a Creation Journal 

If you’re already enrolled in the 12 Bible Eras Class, this is your green light to start creating early, praying early, and journaling early.

Step 1: Create the folio. 

Step 2: Add Background Pages to Treasure Journal 

Lay the foundation. Begin by printing green pages from the background pages from the Creation Kit and punching them for your disc-bound journal.

Step 3: Add the Pockets

Create places to hold truth: Next, adhere green pockets directly onto the background pages. These can go in corners, along the bottom, or centered—there’s no wrong placement. Pockets are important. They turn a flat page into an interactive one.

Step 4: Insert the Folio

Place the heart of the page. Now slide the Creation Folio into your journal. Use tags in this freebie kit or the Creation Kit to addd to the opposite side. 

You just created an interactive page. Slip the folio out of the pocket and unfold. 

 


Looking Ahead to 2026: Through the Bible in a Year

This freebie also gives you a glimpse of what’s coming. In 2026, we begin something special: Through the Bible in a Year — 12 Bible Eras, 12 Journals.

One era at a time.
One journal at a time.
One unfolding story of God’s faithfulness from beginning to end.

This Creation Folio is a small but meaningful first step—like laying the cornerstone of a house before the walls rise.

And if you’ve been thinking about joining—this is a taste of what’s coming.

Creation always begins with a word spoken…
and sometimes, with a page gently opened.
