Your Hands are His hands.

Here is a handout to use either with President Uchtdorf's April 2010 General Conference talk if that is the one that you pick to use for your own Visiting teaching message for the month, or you can use it for a Visiting Teaching Centered  monthly Relief Society meeting.  One sister emailed me and asked me for ideas and I had come up with this one as I was rereading the General Conference talks.  Anyway, however you use this printable, enjoy and know that it was made with lots of love and hopes that you have a wonderful month doing your Visiting teaching.  The message on the bookmarks, comes from President Uchtdorfs talk.  For the R.S. meeting idea, go to http://visitingteachingtips.blogspot.com  Enjoy!  Katie G.

Mothers day ideas and printables

I found a darling site with tons of printable things on them that could be customized for many things.  Here is a PDF template for a Flower.  You can print this off and cut out and make, or you could just use it as a pattern or template, and create your own flower by selecting your own craft paper and creating your own flowers.  It is darling.  The image shows what it will end up looking like if you use the exact template to print found at http://a.dolimg.com/familyfun/assets/cms/large-files/pdfs/printables/0507b_mothersday_flowers.pdf


This is a cute printable basket from the same site as above, that you could fill with something cute.  The pictured basket is a fall basket, but you could fill it with just about anything to make it apply to whatever holiday, or season you would like.    You just print off the basket, cut it out and fold it and glue or stapel. http://a.dolimg.com/familyfun/assets/cms/large-files/pdfs/printables/1008b-Holiday_Basket.pdf


Here is a site where you can find a darling printable purse template.  This site had such darling ideas, you should go and take a look see at all the fun things.  Thanks http://melstampz.blogspot.com
These can be added to make darling purses and all dolled up.  http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/forums/showthread.php?p=12298213#post1229821  and here http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=384852
and here is another http://melstampz.blogspot.com/2008/11/flourish-purse-box-with-snowflake.html  Now fill the purse with fun things!

You know what they say about old friends and antiques? They grow more valuable with time.

Glad that you dropped by my blog!

This blog and it's contents go hand in hand with my Visiting Teaching Tips and handouts blog found at http://visitingteachingtips.blogspot.com/ If you by accident get to this blog first, make sure to go back to the other one and see all that there is for you there. This is sort of my overflow or stroage blog because I can't keep everything there, so I add my creations to this storage unit and that is my Visiting Teaching Surprise for you. Sometimes however, I do put in things that I think you would enjoy even if they aren't specifically related to Visiting Teaching, but my vision in life is that if I take all the time to make things, I may as well share them and get more use out of them. Sorta like hand me downs but brand new "Down loads". I hope you enjoy these freebies. Drop me a note to say hello in the comments under the downloads posts.
