YW 10 hour project...

**Apostle cards have been updated with the 3 new Apostles**

I love helping my Young Women accomplish goals in their Personal Progress books. This week for our activity we will be making Conference Journals!! In addition to making the journals the girls are going to commit to watch ALL sessions of General Conference to complete a 10 hour project!! This is one of the easiest ways I have found to complete a 10 hour project, because you are going to watch conference anyway!!


I found these cute notebooks at Wal-Mart! I loved that they were already cute so we didn't have to take the time to make them look better! I made some tags that have pictures and names of the First Presidency and the 12 Apostles. I then taped them to the notebook pages using packing tape so they would be sturdy tags! Using some mad math skills I figured out how many pages each apostle was allotted. I also factored in extra speakers, so there are a few pages at the end of the notebook for those speakers who are not apostles. Here are the apostle tags. Feel free to use {personal use only} to make your own General Conference Journal!! (Click on picture and then save to your computer!

General Conference Kit...

The past few days I have been working on a General Conference Kit for our Young Women. For our activity this week we will be making conference journals and then committing the girls to listen to ALL sessions of conference in order to complete a 10 hour project! So I wanted to put together a cute kit to help them "get through" all those hours! I perused the internet and pinterest and found some amazing ideas.

I loved Marci Coombs blog and that is where most of the ideas for my kit came from. Each kit includes a bag of popcorn, tissues, a pen, smarties, a lollipop, M&M's, and Fanta soda. I loved the wording on the Make the Most of General Conference and Become a 'Fan' of General Conference, so that stayed the same. I love using my Silhouette Cameo, so I made my own tags for these 2 things.





Feel free save the images to your computer and print to use for your YW group! (Click on each picture, right to save image to downloads (Mac) or save image as (PC).  I have the Silhouette files if you are interested in using that to cut them out. Leave a comment with your email and specify that you need the silhouette files! {The red lines on the fanta printout are the 'cut' lines!}
