This is the busiest time of the year for my blog as these paper heavenly friends have spread around the web world. Last night I already received my first inquiry for patterns. Funny how the simplest, homemade project has turned into such a welcome project all around, as moms and teachers look for easy, simple ways to learn and celebrate All Saints' Day! I think for me it is a great joy to send these patterns because they offset the Halloween craze this time of the year. I don't really mind Halloween, and have done my duty of taking children by hand to encounter the smiles and candies at neighbors' doors, but I will never really take it to heart, not having grown up with it. All Saints' Day, on the other hand, a great holy day, what a huge reason to celebrate, and a well-deserved Holiday in any Catholic country. I'm adding images you can copy, paste, print... be creative, the sky is the limit! And remember---be creative--and send back pictures! I love posting them.
Hi Ana!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for this fun project :o) We're going to have a Make A Saint station at our All Saints Day party tomorrow night, using your templates :o)
Would you please be able to post the PDF files for these, by any chance? I was having a hard time finding a working link for the "basic" PDF (main template, Juan Diego and basic accessories) and finally just got it, but I don't have the new ones you made, that are shown in this new post.
This is where I found the basic template, in case others are having a hard time finding them too: https://sites.google.com/site/aninha77/AllSaintsDayCraftTemplate.pdf
Thank you again, and have a very Blessed All Saints Day tomorrow!

ReplyDeleteI've long had trouble with googlepages so I'm happy you found those! Feel free to copy any image onto a Word doc and create a pdf!
