What a great Conference weekend! I love being able to spend time with family and listen to the prophet, his counselors, the apostles and other leaders of The Church. They are amazing examples of love, service and dedication; all with the same purpose. It’s great to feel the spirit testify of the truths which they so boldly and faithfully share with us.

As you already know for this month we get a new booklet on Temples of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. There were so many great quotes …

I love the reminders we get to not only teach and help, our children and those children we come in close contact with, but to “nurture” them. As you all know this month’s message is titled “Our Responsibility to Nurture the Rising Generation.” One of the definitions for the word nurture is: “the sum of the environmental factors influencing the behavior and traits expressed by an organism.” The organism being our “Rising Generation.” We are responsible for surrounding ourselves and our “rising generation” with righteousness, the best music, the best …

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 …

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 …

June 2006 message, “Renewing Covenants through the Sacrament,” is centered on our Savior, Jesus Christ. We make & keep sacred covenants and promise to always remember Him. We can remember Jesus by not only thinking of him, but by being like Him. As children we are taught to think of Jesus during the sacrament, I still think of Him but now I find myself thinking about how to keep our son quiet, and possibly end up making more noise in the process. We purchased a board book for our son …

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 …

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 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 …

(NOTE: This was designed in March 2010 but can be reused this month in 2012 to let the sisters know that when we “learn how to live as disciples of Jesus Christ” we will be blessed, not to be confused as “lucky.”)
Today’s Treat is a 4×6 Lucky & Blessed Postcard. Goes with March 2010‘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 …

(NOTE: This was designed in 2010 but can be reused this month in 2012!)
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: Pioneer Party & Copy, BowPeep Creations and Sugar Tot Designs. 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 …

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 …

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.
In this month’s Visiting Teaching message Julie B Beck said, “I asked several bishops what self-reliance skills the sisters in their wards needed most, and they said budgeting. Women need …

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 …
