Daughter/Son of a King Digital Download $5

So a few weeks ago my friend the lovely Amy asked me to create this quote as a printable for her daughters baptism and blessing. It turned out so cute. I've had so much response to it I decided to sell it as a digital file for those that are interested. It prints out very large on a 24x36 engineering print (it costs $3.59 to print...so affordable!) The actual lettering is about a 19x27 inch size. It has a large chalkboard border so you can cut it to fit the frame you choose. Ikea has one that fits it perfectly.

To purchase the Daughter/Son of a King Digital Download:
1- Go ahead and pay $5 via paypal
PLEASE SPECIFY IF YOU WANT THE "DAUGHTER" OR "SON" VERSION

2- I will email you with a specific link for you to download the file
3- You can print anywhere you like, but Staples will print it as an engineering file for $3.59. Just go online to Staples Engineering Prints page and upload the file. Then you can pick it up at your local staples store.
4- It has a large chalkboard border around it so you can cut it to fit a standard frame. Ikea sells one that is about 19x27 inches and it fits perfectly.

Amy was kind enough to share these photos (below) of the finished print. And are you dying how cute Gretas room is! You can see a tour here

Hope you enjoy this print...feel free to send friends here that want one as well! No file-sharing please...

thanks

And the original idea of these chalkboard prints as large engineering prints came from caravanshoppe...a darling online printables shop. Check it out for more great prints.

Trailmix

In the church I belong to we have a camp for the teenage girls in our area. We had about 78 girls and 38 leaders and I wanted to do a unique and fun treat for them during our service project activity. I saw a similar idea on pinterest (or course) and created my own printables for a Build your own Trailmix bar. Everyone loved it. I included all the usual fixings and a few random things (gummy bears) to keep the teenagers happy. It was a big success.

I hope you enjoy these free printables! Please respect the work I've done and do not share this print with others via email etc. Simply direct them to this page and let them download it for free. If you post photos etc. of this on your blog please link back...thank you!

Download the bag labels here

For the bags I purchased small (I think they are 4x6) flat cellophane bags with a self-adhesive strip at my local party supply store (Zurchers). 100 bags for $3.95. I then printed the bag labels on regular paper, used a punch to punch them and applied them with a gluestick. You could also print on sticker paper but it would be more expensive. I recommend using flat cellophane bags (rather than gusseted ones that open up large) because it takes less to fill them.

Have fun with your trailmix bar! This one was a hit with both the adults and teenagers too!

Source Ideas:
Baskets: Look at your local thrift store. I got all these baskets for around 25-50cents a piece.
Basket liners: Purchased in the Target dollar spot by the BBQ stuff they recently had.
Table cloth roll: purchased at a local food supply store. You can find these at any party store etc.
Tiny Bottlebrush trees: Lemax village trees...I got mine here 
Washi Tape: I used red gingham washi tape under the words "Build" and "Trailmix"

Also - the idea for these a large chalkboard printable printed as engineering prints originally came from Caravan Shoppe...an amazing design and prints website. Check them out for great printables of all kinds.

Happy New Year...

Happy New Year! I can't believe January is flying by so quickly! I have some great posts/projects I'm working on to share. Until then, here is our Christmas newsletter I sent out this year. We had a fabulous Christmas and enjoyed the Holiday season with all its festivities. Hope you did too...

The perfect gift...

This August was our 10 year anniversary...for a special gift I took our favorite photos from the past 10 years...put them in instagram and then created this large 16x20 collage as a gift to the hubby. He absolutely loved it...and I love having these memories hanging on our wall.

If you'd like you own...email me! Choose 48 of your favorite instagram photos and send them to me . Then I'll put them in this collage for you and email you back the file. You can then print as many copies as you'd like! I got mine printed at Costco for about $6. It fits almost perfectly (a tiny trim) in this frame from Ikea. I'm working off a list so email me asap so we can get you on there...just in time for the perfect Christmas gift!

Free Mustache Card Download...

For card club last week we had a masculine-themed card assignment. You know, something you can give to a guy...something a bit more manly. Well I went with a mustache-themed card. (I know, I know...mustaches are everywhere...but it worked for the theme and I always thought Magnum PI was super manly so there you go...) You can use it for a birthday (above) or cover the text with washi tape (below) or any paper strip etc. and use it as a generic card. I wanted to share it so scroll to the bottom of the post for the free download

I printed mine on kraft paper cards and I really love the contrast with the black on the brown kraft paper.

Designing the cards on my fabulous mac...

The back has a little logo...makes it look more official???

Click here for a version that is for a 5.5 inches wide and 8 inches tall card (when the card is not folded) I bought my cards at Hobby Lobby. (it is a 5.5x4 inch card) You just need to set your printer to a custom size dimension of 5.5x8 with no margins.

And click here for version that you can print two per page. You'll just have to trim it to the finished size...enjoy!

These were the cards all packaged-up and ready to go...and for those who are wondering...card club is where I make 10 of one card...get together with 9 friends and then swap. I come home with 10 different cards.
