Family Temple Trip Car

I love this month’s message about “Our Responsibility to Be Worthy of Temple Worship.” I grew up in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida and we got to drive to the Atlanta Georgia Temple to be sealed as a family. I cherish that trip and can still remember that day as if it were yesterday but I was 5yrs old then. It’s one of the few things I can remember from before my tween years. I also remember being baptized, the first time I went to the Temple with the Young Women, 2 …

LDS Kitchen Pop-up Card

This card was inspired by my neighbor and BFF, well I know she’s my BFF but who knows if I’m hers cause I’m always in debited to her. The most humble gal you’ll ever meet, she’s my hero! She can manage her home, have FHE every week, do scripture study at 6am w/ her whole fam of 5, make meals from scratch, iron 30+ men’s shirts a month, drop anything to help a neighbor, takes meals for peeps who need them without even asking first (she is in-tune), the list …

Prayer Passport Card

There are so many fun quotes which I want to use this month from the 180th General Conference session in April 2010. You all know how much I love to make fun printables, I hope I can get a chance to make more soon. This one is from President Thomas S. Monson’s address titled “Preparation Brings Blessings” which was shared during the Priesthood session. (But of course applies to us ladies too!)

“When you were confirmed a member of the Church, you received the right to the companionship of the Holy …

Princess Treat Tents

You’re a real Princess! I forget that I’m a REAL live princess sometimes. I forget my worth, true value and sometimes think that I am weak or insignificant, but I’ve been told that I’m not. I also sometimes forget that I am married to a Prince and he’s my Prince Charming and I need to appreciate him for everything he is and for what he does for us and I need to remember to uplift him and support him in all of his royal duties. That’s what a Princess does! …

I got a feeling!

I heart 4×6 postcard size! I had to read this month’s message about 10 times before this idea hit me. Remember, I am trying not to duplicate other people’s work, to make sure you ladies always have lots of fun options, but that’s hard. I should do mine early next time so that I don’t have to take so long. LOL But alas, if you’ve gone already (which I am sure most of you have) you can gift these with smiley cookies or just mail this card to them.

The quote …

Lucky & Blessed! 4×6 Postcard

Today’s Treat is a 4×6 Lucky & Blessed Postcard. Goes with this month‘s message of course, because we’re blessed when we read them, and it was obviously inspired by St. Patrick’s Day. Have you ever heard people say “I’m so lucky” and then either publicly corrected, or silently corrected, them to help them realize it’s called a blessing? I have to correct myself sometimes when I say, “I am so lucky” and realize that actually I’m being blessed. Well, that had me thinking a lot and I’m blessed with a …

Shamrock Door Hanger

I’ve really been struggling lately on what to design for this month’s message without copying the fun Visiting Teaching Kits and gifts from: HandPickedDaisy, Pioneer Party & Copy and JustBeccuz. But have no fear, I finally did and it turned out cute, I think. It’s a door knob hanger in the shape of a shamrock with a stem cause of St. Patrick’s Day. Great for hanging on standard door knobs! I used a few digital products from Lettering Delights. They have the cutest designs. I’m sure if the sisters you …

Scripture Scholar Crossword

This week’s Treat is from Rebecca Stoker from JustBeccuz.etsy.com. She created a Scripture Scholar Crossword for us which goes perfectly with March’s Visiting Teaching message titled, “Strengthening Faith in God the Father & Jesus Christ through Personal Scripture Study.” It’s really quite fun! Questions like… Who is Hezekiah’s Mother? Who has been born of goodly parents? What’s the name of King Noah’s Priest who believed Abinadi? If you can’t get them right off (I couldn’t, I have a short term memory), Becca provided a scripture reference next to it so …

Avoiding Debt Purse

The past 2 weeks I’ve been “brainstorming,” or surfing the net, to spark an idea for a fun printable about debt and money saving for February’s Visiting Teaching Message. My wise Hubby says if I want something I need to “save my money.” Probably because he knows how I used to be with $$. LOL  I love that statement, it’s simple and yet powerful at the same time, because it helps me to reevaluate my purchase. If I’m not willing to “save my money” for it, I probably didn’t want …

Today’s Treat is, you guessed it, a Menu Calendar! Just as I promised. You can use Velcro dots or Magnets. I am so in love with this new Menu Calendar, it’s perfect for me. I designed it using several LetteringDelights’ digital graphic products. Super cute!!!! I sure hope you gals like it too. Now I will have to plan my meals.

Stick to the message?

Did you know that you can share any quote, message or “principle you that will bless the sisters you Visit” Teach? With so many different; personalities, trials, talents, circumstances, ages, likes, preferences, careers, etc… There is not one sister who is exactly the same temporally, emotionally or spiritually. You don’t have to stick to the monthly message. Each sister may need a different message at a different time or month in her life. The leaders of The Church select these specific topics and messages which they feel will help all …
