My darling friend Katie shared an inspiring SFD Nautical Printable on her new site: The Vintage Mother.A few weeks ago I was able to attend a marvelous retreat where we laughed, cried,
were nurtured by the Good Word of God, felt of His Holy Spirit,
and were surrounded by kindred spirits – women who understood our hearts.
I am so grateful for these dear friends.

This print: Sure & Steadfast, is a great focus for centering your hope & faith in Jesus Christ.

Go check out Katie’s post to download the Free Printable.

Easter is one of my favorite holidays. I love knowing that because of the sacrifice of our Savior, Jesus Christ, we will all be resurrected. This is my greatest HOPE. Hope by itself is nothing. HOPE in Jesus Christ is EVERYTHING.

Today I am sharing an Easter Printable of one of my favorite scriptures, Moroni 7:41. It reminds me that “There is Always Hope.”

These are the six files you receive in the download.

Easter Printable: There is Always Hope

I sawthese cute nativity blocks for children on pinterest. I knew I had the images from a purchase long ago on pccrafter.com (which no longer exists). Me & My Big Ideas sold the stickers but I can’t find either digital or stickers anywhere online. I hope it’s appropriate to share these edited & framed images with ya’ll since they aren’t available anymore. These are the blocks I made. The fun part is that you can make it as little or big as you want. You could do just Joseph, Mary, and Baby Jesus… leave out the wisem*n & angels… no animals, etc. Lots of options.

This was a fun project for this holiday season. I kinda wish I would have used 1×4’s… but I used a 2×4 for the longer Scenes… and a 2×3 for the little blocks. You can also use a 2×4 for the little blocks as they will fit well. I’m no modge-podge or staining expert, but it seemed to work out alright. And I’m pleased to announce that I didn’t even cut off any fingers when I used the saw to cut the boards. That is always a good thing, especially when it’s your first time.

I’m a scaredy-cat.
But I have family members and friends who are huge fans of Harry Potter books.
I love great messages for youth taught in books. Enjoy!

Just wanted to let y’all know that my etsy shop will be going on vacation for the summer starting Tuesday, May 29 (day after Memorial Day).

So Sorry. Looks like I’ll have to see my error all year long as I’ve already printed mine. Sigh…

I thought I’d share something I’ve done the past few years for our family calendar. Every few years I receive a few promotional code for a Shutterfly Calendar. Love that! Free is always fun! This year a friend had a code to spare and so I got to work putting it together. I was in a bit of a rush (as it was my anniversary and all), so I sped along. This is what I came up with.

This was last year’s:

I have loved having the Primary Monthly themes on our calendar.
1. Since I look at the calendar so much, I remember to try and focus on what the kids are learning in Primary. It sure makes for a quickie FHE idea to go along with Sunday lessons.
2. I put the song for the year on the cover so it’s easily accessible when we are practicing or having a song for FHE or Morning Devotional.

I really love Shutterfly Calendars because the cardstock is very thick and durable. My kids love that I can put their photo on the date of their birthday.

Anyhoo… I thought just in case anyone else was interested in making a 2012 Primary Calendar (with their own family images), I’d share the .jpg images already set in the template for a Shutterfly Calendar (p.s. they have their calendars on ***sale*** right now). You can insert your images into the .jpg downloaded files in Picasa or use a different photo-editing software. I had fun going through all the January photos from various years and selecting my favorites… and so on for each month.

This is what you get in the download:

Download:
Zipped Folder of 8.5×11 2012 Primary Posters Calendar Pages
(with a place to insert your own family photos)
(the file is large so be patient when downloading…
you will need to unzip the folder before you can access the images)

Hop on over to Shutterfly and order your calendar before the sale ends!
