spiritual renewal — all from the comfort of your home.
Do you love being creative?

This 7-day Mixed-Media Course will give you:
7 Days of Mixed Media Art Journaling fun
Scriptures to reflect on
Emotional support for what you are going through or facing in life right now.
Why I created Camp Creative?
Many women arrive here tired, overstimulated, or spiritually dry.
You love God deeply, but life’s noise and constant demands have left your creative spark flickering.
You long for a safe place to rest, make art, and meet God again in the pages of your journal.
Camp Resilient was created to help you slow down, breathe, and rebuild your inner resilience through creative faith practices.
Each session gently guides you to reconnect with the One who renews your spirit.
What You’ll Experience in 7 Days
Each day includes a short mixed-media video lesson, a Scripture reflection, and a creative prompt.
You’ll build a small collection of journal pages that reflect your personal faith journey.
In these seven days, you will:
Create a handmade art journal using simple supplies you already have.
Explore Scripture passages that restore peace and emotional strength.
Paint, layer, and write as a form of worship and personal reflection.
Learn techniques to express emotions safely through the creative process.
Build habits that calm your nervous system and nurture your sensitivity.
End the week with a renewed sense of hope and a completed creative project that tells your story of resilience.

Meet Ansu Badenhorst
Founder of Ivytree Studio | Educator | Mixed-Media Artist | Creative Mentor
"Hello, Dear Heart, Welcome to my little studio.
For more than 25 years, I’ve taught women and young adults how to use creativity to heal, connect with Scripture, and live with purpose. As a highly sensitive artist myself, I understand the struggle of balancing emotional depth, faith, and creativity in a busy world.
Through Ivytree Studio, I’ve created dozens of courses and programs that help creative Christian women make God’s Word their home through art journaling and reflection. Camp Resilient brings together everything I’ve learned about faith-based creativity and emotional renewal. I'm inviting you into my humble studio. It is not a designer studio at all, but it is a working artist's studio, and this is where I have been creating for more than 15 years. You don't need much to start. Just start!"
