To make them, you print and cut out the cards. Then after organizing them by month, you punch a hole through all of them, and bind them using something. (We used loose-leaf rings you can find at any office supply store, but you could use ribbon or twine or anything that tickles your fancy.)
We have done this before, and have had parents say that their kids look at them all through sacrament meeting. This way many of the older kids become familiar with the themes even before we introduce them in primary!

Where did you find the monthly scriptures? I don't see them listed anywhere in the outline.
ReplyDeleteThey are right under the theme for each month on the monthly pages where the Sharing time Outlines are.
DeleteI ment they aren't on lds.org in the sharing time outline
ReplyDeleteI found them on the Sharing Time Outline that the Presidencies receive. Here's an example of what I mean (I've posted a picture of where it is on the outline). Hope this helps!

Did you print these as 8x10's? The files I am seeing have lines through them, even the pictures. Maybe I didn't download it correctly? This is a great idea! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI checked my files and there aren't any lines through them. Maybe download them again? If that doesn't work, I can send you the files directly.
DeleteThe PDF files have lines, but the PNG and JPG files do not.
DeleteI wonder if these could be converted so that each card could be printed as a 4x6 photo for either group or personal use? If you could direct me on how to do so, that would be fabulous. If you are able to do it and offer another link for them, that would be even better. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks!

I have posted a 4X6 download link with the other download links :)
DeleteThese are beautiful and such a help to the Primary children. I'm grateful for your abilities--what I would have come up with would not have looked so nice.
ReplyDeleteOur Primary Presidency love these! However, our Primary is large and it would cost $200 for us to print these for each child. Did you print these yourself or order them? Is there a way we could use blue card stock to print these out on ourselves so we don't use so much ink? THANKS!!!
ReplyDeleteI was wondering the same thing. I love this idea but we have 83 kids.
DeleteI'm not sure printing them on blue cardstock would work because of the pictures, but If you need me to alter the originals in some way to make it easier for you to print them, I can probably do that!

DeleteWhat type of paper did you use to print your cards?
ReplyDeleteI like to do them on photo paper because it makes them glossy, but cardstock would probably work if you don't mind the matte finish.
DeleteI would like to print these through either Walmart photo or Shutterfly but the files are png. Do you have them in jpeg
ReplyDeleteSorry, I thought I had posted that link correctly! It is there now, so you can download them.
DeleteI love these but need to convert them into French... do you have an editable version??
ReplyDeleteI have a special program that I edit them, then convert them to jpg, so I'm not sure it would work to give that to you. However, if you would like to send me the translations, I would be happy to put them on the cards.
DeleteThank you so much!! Sorry it has taken me so long to translate these. Here are the French Translations. The Date is at the top, then the Theme and the scripture is under the theme. Please let me know if there is anything you don't understand...

Thanks for doing all that work! What format would you like these in? (an 8.5X11 sheet of 4 or single 4X6 jpg cards)
DeleteI just wanted to say THANK YOU so much for doing this for me!! Our kids have never gotten anything like this before and are going to be so happy!! I really appreciate the time and effort you put in for a complete stranger! Thank you...
DeleteThese are beautiful. I love your work! Do you have an idea of the cost on these to print them on photo paper as you have displayed?
ReplyDeleteI don't know about if you print them yourself, but when I printed mine at Staples, they were about 30 cents a page (making them $1.00 per set) They may be different where you live, depending on color copy prices.
DeleteWe LOVE your cards & were wanting to print them, but for cost purposes we need to print them in black & white. Is there a way to make the background white? Thanks a ton!!!
ReplyDeleteI have uploaded a copy with the background in white and the text in black. I hope that works :)
DeleteAmber you are amazing!!! Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful talent with us & making our job in the primary a little easier. THANK YOU!!!
DeleteAmber - these cards are amazing! Is there anyway I could move the months around so that I could print front and back i.e. January one side and then February on the back? I'm planning on printing them off on card stock. Thanks you!
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure exactly how to do that, but I would be happy to give you the original jpg files for you to organize them how you would like. I can email them to you if you would like :)
DeleteWow Amber that would be fantastic! meadfamilyis@msn.com Thank you so much!!! Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteAmber!! I loved them! Would you mind making them in Portuguese too? I could give you the words. Hugs from Brazil. dani-bv@hotmail.com
ReplyDeleteI sure can. Now that they have the outline translated, I will use the words from the Portuguese outline. I'll have them done in a couple of days :)
DeleteWould you be willing to make these in Spanish also? I would really appreciate it!!
ReplyDeleteI posted the link to the Spanish Cards :)
Delete"Thank you from Brazil"
ReplyDeleteThank you so much from Brazil. It was a great and useful idea!
ReplyDeleteAmber,

I couldn't get your email to work, but you should be able to download from the links now

ReplyDeleteThank you for your hard work! :)
ReplyDeleteI can't download from the links. I would appreciate both the black and white background files in English. Thanks cookieljj@hotmail.com
ReplyDeleteI am getting an error code each time I try to download the links. It says: Error (509)
ReplyDeleteThis account's public links are generating too much traffic and have been temporarily disabled!
Any idea on what this is and when I'll be able to try again?
If you're willing to email these to me, I am also having trouble with your links. But I am in love with them!! twinlinebackers at gmail dot com
ReplyDeleteI was able to print these, they are so great. Can't wait to share them with our primary children. Thank you for your creativity and kindness to share.
ReplyDeleteJanet
The Spanis poster for January is downloading weird just that month. Thanks for sharing your talents. I luv the posters & binders covers. Gracias mil!

ReplyDeleteThis is great! thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI love these and want to make them for my own children so that they can memorize the monthly theme scripture each month. I downloaded the 4x6 cards and want to print them at Office Max. Each card is in a different file, but it sounds like you were able to print 4 per page if you just paid $1 per set. I know it is probably a silly question, but how do you do that? Do I just send all the files to Office Max and they put them on one page? My email is mackrory@gmail.com. Thank you for sharing your talents!
