Come Follow Me - Week 1

Long time no post. I have switched a few priorities, one is gospel study. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints is starting a coordinated Gospel Study Program in January. The first lesson focuses on the importance of developing your own testimony and studying scriptures, not just reading them. I have developed a handout/thought page for various ages. Please comment if you use it.

New Testament Week 1

May Scripture

I have chosen a scripture to go with may that talks about gifts, earned gifts. I like if-then statements and this one is very powerful.
Download this one.

May Header

Here is the topper for May. The download version is a png file with a hole. I try to make the calendar part generic and the topper month specific. This could be for Mother's Day or just May flowers.
The kit I used for this month's set, MoM, had too many colors and so the parts I made from it are different. Before I expand the kit, I will pare down the colors.

Another Month

May is quickly approaching. I have spent a great deal of time considering my role as a scrapbook designer and my roll in the schools. I am also planning one or two large scrapping project.
As for now here is the calendar part of May. This month is the only month this year that starts on Tuesday. You may need to wait until next year to get other calendars that start on Tuesday. I am considering next year, making a complete set with a single large kit.  This month's set was completed with an unpublished kit called "MoM". Tell me what you think. In the meantime, download the calendar.

April's Verse

This scripture on prayer is one of my favorites. Usually people just quote the "Counsel with the Lord in all thy doings", but I decided to include 2 verses because the list of when and over what to pray is fantastic.
Do you counsel with the Lord or just talk to Him? Take the opportunity to make it a two way conversation, tell Him your thoughts.

April Header

Here is part 2 of April calendar - the header (or what do you call it?). You, of course, will download a PNG file with a hole for your own photo. Both my and my dad's birthday are in April.
The kit I used is Keep Calm which I am updating and hope to be in the stores soon. After creating these calendars, I see that I need to create a multi-hole frame.
If you did not get the calendar part, see yesterday's post.

April Calendar

Another month gone by. I am finally on Spring Break, the earlier snows and flooding took some of ours away. This weekend I am looking forward to Easter and the General Conference of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day  Saints. With my brothers not near, April Fools is not a big day.
I have another calendar for you. This one is for April. The 31 day one that starts on the first of the week will be out in July. I used my calm kit, which I am trying to get into the stores this weekend.

March Scripture

I have also been creating a quote or scripture page to go with the calendar. Here is one for March. Are you interested in the others for Jan and Feb?

Date Part of March

I am ahead of the game this month, the ice outside has helped.
I am offering the generic 31 day calendar that starts on US Thursday (download here). I offered the 28 day last month and the 30 day Thursday will be available in November.
I used an old collab - should I make this one into a full kit?

Ice Storm and March

A long weekend (mostly spent waiting) and an incoming ice storm has left me with a bit of time. So surprise: I have March's calendar set complete. Here is the quickpage for the month name. I used an old collab for these pages. Should I upgrade this set?

Date part of February

I have ready the date part of the February calendar. I felt OK going with something more thematic like the hearts this time as it will only be 28 days on a February calendar. If I continue, you will get the 31 day calendar that starts on Thursday next month in March and the 30 day one in November.
I used the same collaborative kit that I used to create the month quick page. Should I continue and make this one a full sized kit?
Download and see yesterday's post if you missed the month page.

February is upon us

January has rolled on by and February is upon us. I have started late again, but a bit earlier to get the calendar together. This month page was created using an old collab. I realized it had no flowers. What kind of kit has no flowers? If I work on this kit more, that will be the first element I add.
I have already started work on the dates and should post them within a few days. keep your eyes open.
Download this part.
So what do you think? Is landscape the best? Is anyone out there? I need to get a photo of the fridge where I posted last month's pages.

Landscape QP

And here is one more part of my perpetual calendar set: a landscape quickpage for the month of January (yours will have holes so you can put your own pictures). Download.
We have another snow day. I hope to be able to finish Winter Memories and get it into my stores.

Calendar: Landscape

Still putting my calendar together. I have decided to go with landscape for the rest of the year. This perpetual calendar will also be used in Oct of this year. I may make another because this one is very wintery. I used my Winter Memories kit, which I still need to add a bit to before I put it into the stores.
I have created a landscape quickpage which I will distribute sometime this week. Then I will create one more part and I am ready to print. I will be doing a scripture of the month to complete the set.
I looked in a few stores last week for a 4x6 file box to save these into and there were only 3x5, may have to search online.
Say hi so that I know that I am not doing this only for my benefit. I will try to have February's calendars out before the end of January.

Perpetual Calendar

I have put together the calendar part for January 2018. This calendar will also be used for October of 2018. I used the same kit as yesterday's month page - Winter Memories. Download the calendar. (words not on your copy)
I am thinking the landscape will work better. What do you think?
I have been accepted as a designer at Scrapbook Delights. I will start uploading some kits today. I am not sure of the Grand Opening dates.

Calendar, etc

I have decided to get back into designing and have applied to 2 stores, waiting to hear back from them. In the mean time - you may have guessed that I love calendars. I am putting together a little 4x6 dual frame perpetual calendar. I will be handing them out in the next few days a piece at a time. I have 2 magnetic holders ($1 a piece at Dollar General) that I will be using, any double frame or 2 singles together will display the calendar. I am flipping back and forth between portrait and landscape. What do you think? Download this one and comeback!

Stacked Paper Freebie!

 I actually moved on in The Studio's contest. Yea! More of the this delightful kit has been made. I had a very busy weekend and the contest demanded non-solid papers for this one, I did make a few, but only the patterned and designed ones are in this paper pack. The contest rules ask for a stacked paper to give away. So your freebie is in The Studio's contest gallery. Please make a comment in the gallery on the stacked paper page (linked above) and the paper pack page. The comments will let me know that this kit is worth making. Then please vote for me and then you will get another freebie next week.

Spring Days

Been trying to find my design mojo - joined a group at Pixel Scrapper called "Pass The Kit". We worked together to put together a wonderful kit. Links after.

We Believe Blog Train: Abundant Life

This month as been odd with my external hard drives fading in and out and not being able to upload photos to any online place. But even with these frustrations, I do have an abundant life.
This month's theme comes from John 10:10-11

 10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
 11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.

I am grateful for the many things and people I do have in my life.
