Make a Joyful Noise

Here is another one of Mom's boards that is in the nursery. I LOVE this adorable little board! So cute with a piece of material with farm animals (she said she thinks it's a chunk used for making a quilt) as the main background. Yellow felt fills the rest of the background with a grass border on the bottom. Words were all printed on her computer with PrintMaster...left side has animal sounds " moo, cluck, baa, etc." and the right side has the verse Psalm 100:1.

Are You Praying For Revival?

I gathered a few pics while back home last week...I always enjoy seeing my mom's boards and this is one of hers. She used blue material (I think...it could be paper, but I'm pretty sure it was material...) and then a ribbon border. The words were all printed using PrintMaster on her computer. Simple, yet pretty and thought provoking.

Set Your Affection

This is one of my favorite boards! The hot air balloons are made with posterboard, construction paper, string, and computer clip art. The clouds are simply made with white paper and white felt. Bible reading, church attendance, witnessing, obedience, and prayer are five things to set our affection on, but more could be added or used instead. It's a fun, colorful board for our kids to look at, as well as a reminder of what really counts for eternity.

Western VBS

This board is totally impromtu to cover up a blank board in preparation for VBS last week. I was playing around with leftover stuff: threw some brown paper up with a gold border and the 2 bandanas. Then I thought about the stick horse crafts (super cute from Michaels) and put a couple of those on. We took pics of the kids the first night to make their crafts out of. I used the extra pics to add a little to the board. Turned out cute in the long run! : ) Hopefully I'll have some new boards to post here soon! Anyone else out there have a board you want to post?!? Let me know!

The Earth is the Lord's

Well, I hate to say it, but this was, once again, a quick last minute idea. I bought some calendars at our Michael's this winter since they were moving across town and had calendars for 15 cents! I figured they would come in handy for a bulletin board one day. We have a young lady in our church who is going to start working on this particular board (it's in our main foyer) so I gave her some ideas for this one and she went to work picking colors etc. She did the work with my imput basically! So, though basic, it will work nicely for a few summer months.

Summer Attendance Charts

Here's a post mainly to file for my own memory. These are my summer attendance charts. It never ceases to amaze me how quickly a quarter goes by, but I hope summer lasts a LONG time! Anyway, the charts were beach pictures this quarter. When I found water background I had to get it...it's SO bright! Then I found a sea shell border so...wonderful...all set through August. One of our other teachers had aquarium attendance charts so she used the same background and border. I didn't take a picture of hers, but they turned out cute.

Happy Mother's Day!

I don't normally do Mother's and Father's day boards because I don't like the fact that I'll have to take them down within a few weeks of putting them up! (Leaving boards up for 3 months is much more my style! ; ) ) However, this year I was at a loss of what to do following missions month and my mind went to work on a quick simple mother's day board. I actually had a very different picture in my mind of what I would do, but as usual, while I was shopping I found other stuff and changed course. So, here you have a very pink look...background is pink and black polka dot wrapping paper from WalMart. I already had black letters on hand. Paper doilies (I cut them in half) and pink daisies can also be found at WalMart. Thankfully 2 of the ladies at church gave me a hand last night putting this up and it went quickly. I'm sure the ladies at church will be surprised I actually did a board for them this year! : ) HAPPY MOTHER'S day to all the Mom's out there...especially to my mom and mother-in-law!

God Keeps His Promises

Here's my Mom's Easter board for this year. I took several pics so we could read the verses better. The back ground is material with a ribbon border. Verses are all printed from the computer. I don't really know where she got the middle picture, but my sister told me she colored it! ; )

Jesus Loves Me

I was able to get some pics of my Mom's boards while back home for Easter. Here is her nursery board which looks to me like she may have done for Valentine's Day. The background his wrapping paper. The picture in the middle is a Sunday School hand out from A Beka. The cute little pics of the kids look like they were computer generated with borders. (?)

Missions...Go Ye Therefore

Well, I actually did this board trying not to spend any money and I did! I rummaged through old missions stuff and found a map I had never posted. It had little globes along with it that I used to write the name and country of each of our missionaries.
