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 …

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 …

Today’s Treat is 6 Crock Pot / Slow Cooker Recipes which include a Grocery Shopping list! I’ve made and tasted some of them and the other ones just look good so I’ll be making them this week. This printable is simple yet goes a long way to help with meal planning. Julie B Beck stated..

At the start of this New Year, my husband & I reviewed our 2010 goals and then he mentioned that in order to realize my goals, or make them happen, I need to write them down and post them up somewhere so I can see them often. Then I’ll have that constant reminder. This is a great idea, he’s such a smart guy! I’m a list person (if you couldn’t tell), therefore if I don’t make a list, I’m just going from one thing to the next without actually finishing …

Today’s Treat is from Megan Curtis from Florida. She’s designed an 8.5″x11″ Courage Poster and a smaller 8″x8″ handout using the Warrior Princess silhouette I designed when I made the Armed with Prayer cards for her lesson on the last Sunday before the New Year. She’s amazingly talented!
