Girl's Camp 2012 Kickoff

This week was my big Girl's Camp 2012 Kickoff meeting with the announcement of this year's theme~

SPARK your Spirit!

It is all about the SPARK inside you - full of light and hope. It's that SPARK when you think, I am a Daughter of God!

 I made this banner to hang up at the meeting and camp - it's about 6' long. It's made of foam core and wrapped in colorful crepe paper. Then I made different lollies to attach to each letter (see below). 

I made these little boxes for all the leaders who came to the meeting. Each side of the box had the words "SPARK YOUR SPIRIT 2012".

 Each box was filled with Dove chocolates and a cute pinwheel on a pink candy stick with the theme's inspiration tied around it. I think they turned out pretty cute :) 

 Of course I had to have matching water bottle labels! 

Since it's almost Valentine's Day, I made them a special little treat of peanut butter blossom cookies with Reese's hearts on top - YUM!! Don't you wish you had to attend my meetings? ;) I can't wait for camp this year!

Paperbag Scrapbooks

This past week at Faith in God we made paper bag scrapbooks. They turned out really cute. This was for the requirement of "learning and living the gospel". The girls decorated all the pages with cute and colorful scrapbook papers and embellishments. They will fill their scrapbook with family pictures and memorabilia at home to document their own family histories. 

Journals

 This past Activity Days was really fun and turned out so cute! We were learning how to "Live the Gospel" and talked about why and how to journal in our lives. The girls decorated composition notebooks (the ugly black and white speckled ones) with papers, stickers, and flowers. I made them a cute little glittery pen with a fun squishable pom pom on top :)

 I printed each girl's name on clear sticker paper so they could place it however they liked on the from "created by" tag

Inside the front cover we put a pocket with index cards that have journaling prompts to help the girls be more creative with their writing

Inside the back cover, is a note, "Why should we keep a Journal?". It has quotes and stories from Prophets and other leaders. I love that Pres. Kimball advises "the angels may quote from it for eternity".

 These two cuties made coordinating journals - so cute!! I love this calling in church - best age and so much fun!
