* Some of you are leaving comments below asking for the template. However, the above two files are the template.
Melinda writes, "I just created this for my kids' Primary Teachers and my Visiting Teachers. I thought I would share. This crafty lady figured out the burlap thing...amazing! It was really easy. I followed her tutorial. When I was making it... I was amazed at how it just prints out like that. I have a big old copy/printer and that didn't work so well. It wouldn't even take it in. I just used my HP Photosmart printer...which by the way it a total piece of junk. It worked great. I have this project sitting on the counter and when my husband came home he was amazed too. He couldn't figure out how I got the wording on there and when I told him he still couldn't believe it.
I took some wood pieces and glued them together and then mod podged the cardstock and burlap on."

Love this wordart pdf of the Savior. Thank you for sharing this project. I am too big of a weenie to run burlap through my printer but I bet I have a jpg of burlap, if I can find it, I will post a link to the paper for other weenies!
Thank you, again.

I want all the Articles of Faith on these, my daughter just turned 8 and I'm the new Activity Days leader, these would be so fun for my girls when they pass them off. I wonder if I can make them a little smaller. Better yet, I wounder if I can buy them.

I wrapped a thin piece of masking tape over the leading edge of my burlap/freezer paper. This seemed to help keep the frayed edges from causing the printer to jam.

What is freezer paper? I have called Roberts, Hobby Lobby, Michaels, JoAnns and Expedx and noone sells it. Where can I find this?

This is a great idea. I printed it on card stock and framed it, and it looks great too. perfect for the CHRISTmas Season. I used red and green card stock and it looks cool. Thank you!!




Too too cute!!!Could we get your Jesus Christ template too?
