Day 2: Post-It Note Printables

Welcome back for the second installment of my insanity.  This weekend we have been enjoying the General Conference of our church.  In honor of the occasion, I thought it would be fun to do a project along more spiritual lines.  This project also combines several of my favorite things from Pinterest.  A while back I pinned this:

The comment on the pin said, "Best website for church stuff.  This lady is amazing!" so I headed on over to The Red Headed Hostess to check it out.  She shares a million ideas for studying and marking your scriptures, which are pretty fantastic.  What I wouldn't give to get my hands on her scriptures or one of her scripture journals.  Awesome.  She recommended sticking Post-It notes in your scriptures when you have some inspiration or thoughts about particular verses as you read.  She also has lots of quotes that you can glue into your scriptures near applicable verses.  I LOVE that idea.

This got me to thinking about some way to incorporate my love of graphic design into this project -- because we all know that I want something prettier than a hand-scrawled post-it in my scriptures that I look at every day.  I was beyond excited to find this idea the other night:

Kristen from Inkablinka shared a great template on Sugardoodle for printing from your computer onto Post-It notes.  It is so quick and easy -- I can think of a million uses for this!  I sat down Thursday night while Brent was gone on an overnight fieldtrip with Ri and made up a couple of pages of printable quotes that can be stuck into your scriptures.  Just a note:  Post-its are tiny, y'all.  These are not for the faint of vision.  Sorry.

I hope you like them!  Come back tomorrow for a cute Halloween wreath project.

  1. I hesitate to share this with my mom because I know my mom would love it, but as a seminary teacher, she already spends WAY too much time and effort on her calling! She's got to see your post-its, though.

  3. Do you have to be signed up with FileFactory to download your quotes because I can't even click on your doc file. I would really like to download it but I can't for some reason. HELP!

  4. You do not have to create a File Factory account -- the download page is a little bit confusing. Instead of clicking on the name of the file {which is what would make sense} you have to scroll down and click on the little speedometer image that says "slow download" {it's not really too slow}. You'll have to type in two word verification codes and then wait about 30 seconds for your download to begin. Let me know if that doesn't work and I'll try to send the files to you via e-mail. Hope that helps. Have a great day!
