Treat Tuesday #34 - Winter Contact Cards

Today’s Treat (no time to explain the tardiness), are some cute and cozy Contact Cards. Now there’s finally something cute and simple which I can give to the sisters my companion and I visit teach that has our names and numbers. Has a space for you and your companion’s names, phone numbers, mailing addresses and even email addresses. I of course used the super cute digital “All Bundled Up” graphics bundle from LetteringDelights.com. Hope you all love it as much as I do. Seems like the sisters we visit teach …

Treat Tuesday #33 - Loving Gingerbread

Today’s Treat on Friday… I guess one of my New Years resolutions should be to actually get Treat Tuesdays out on Tuesday. LOL Anyway, here’s a Gingerbread Gal with a quote from this month’s Visiting Teaching Message from Silvia H. Allred. I chose a Gingerbread gal because the quote had to do with love, compassion, kindness and charity. The gingerbread gal looked so sweet, had a smile on her face and had her arms stretched, seemed perfect! Pretty much what we need to look like while serving others. Right? Plus, …

Treat Tuesday #32 - Service Mittens

Today’s Treat is on Wednesday! These “Service Mittens” include the first quote from this month’s Visiting Teaching Message by President Dieter F. Uchtdorf Second Counselor in the First Presidency. I chose these cute mittens because, it’s snowing outside and when I think of serving others in the snowy winter season, I think of shoveling snow. Why? It’s a service which you know they need done simply by looking out your window or driving by, it can be done anonymously (if doing it early in the morning or when people are …

Home for Christmas Layered Nativity Book

This month we get to celebrate Christ’s birth and reason he was born. He was born to be our perfect example and atone for our sins, the greatest gift anyone can receive. The First Presidency message by President Henry B. Eyring is titled “Home for Christmas.” I used his message & Lettering Delights’ DB Nativity Doodlebat Font to design this Visiting Teaching and even Home Teaching Enhancer. I absolutely love this message and I think you will too. Although it’s not the standard Visiting Teaching Message, Pres. Eyring’s message still …

“ity” Bitty Toilet Paper Roll Turkey

This is a fun enhancer for the month of November. It’s a Turkey Printable! I’m sure you all are probably sick of the turkey but this one is sooo cute and won’t add on any pounds. LOL I used quotes from Bishop H. David Burton, “Let Virtue Garnish Your Thoughts,” message from October’s General Conference. I just loved when he mentioned the “ity” virtues. So cute! Well, enough chit chat, we’re all super busy, right? So here’s my rough draft (because both of my laser printers ran out of toner, …

Treat Tuesday #31 - iPrayer 4×6

Today’s Treat printable is from a, personally most needed, message from this years 179th Semiannual General Conference. It was given by Elder Russell M. Nelson and it’s titled, “Ask, Seek, Knock.” I’m sure you will all remember when he said:
“access information directly from heaven, without hardware, software, or monthly service fees.”
It was so clever and true! I loved that he compared prayer and personal revelation to technology and cell phone plans. I’m sure we can all relate to high phone bills, but luckily prayer won’t cost us a penny! This …

Treat Tuesday #30 - Warm Fuzzies Jar Card

Today’s Treat comes from my favorite talk from this years 179th Semiannual General Conference. It was given by our Prophet, President Thomas S. Monson and it’s called, “What Have I Done for Someone Today?” I just loved it!! It really touched my soul. Reminds me to go back to the basics of serving others and I especially loved the “warm fuzzies” given by the Primary kids. How cute!!! We totally need to have a “warm fuzzy” jar here at home. I know the early bird and super prepared Visiting Teachers …

Treat Tuesday #29 - Pumpkin Recipe Cards

Today’s Treat (which was supposed to be Tuesday’s treat, LOL) was forwarded to me by my MIL (mother-in-law), Judy. They are super fun Recipe Cards w/ recipes in the shape of Pumpkins! She said she was going to print them and give them to the sisters she Visit Teaches and thought that it would be cute for other sisters as well. I TOTALLY agree! Seems like they come from Kate’s Kitchen, but Kate didn’t include her last name, so I couldn’t ask Kate’s permission, my MIL said to share. So, …

Treat Tuesday #28 - Paper Pumpkin

Today’s Treat was something I should have thought of sooner, cause it’s too cute. I saw it on a few children’s websites (would have saved some time if they would have had templates). It still seemed simple enough for me to make and for you to print, so I decided it was definitely something worth designing. I think this is the one I’m going to use. I included several excerpts of Pres. Hinckley’s quote from October’s Message on each of the strips of paper which make up the Paper Pumpkin. …
