Follow the Prophet - President Monson; Hello/Good-bye

FYI- I am not computer savvy. I'm almost computer-illiterate, in fact.

So I thought I would try and add a flip chart or two today. Let's see how it goes :-)

First, I'll try a link.  Follow the Prophet - President Monson Version.

Now I'll try to display a flip chart.  How about the Hello/Good-bye song?

Hmmm.... let's see here....

Ta-da!
That deserves a big pat on the back.
(You can access the PDF here)

I cut the Hello/Good-bye printouts into squares, glue-sticked (is that a word?) around the sides and top edges, and glued the coordinating phrase of the song front-to-back.  Then I laminated the two together, x-acto knifed a slit in the bottom center, and hot-glued a painted paint-stirrer (free at Home Depot) in the middle, like so:

 (front)

(back)

I did glue a little grosgrain ribbon around the bottom, only to cover my extremely messy glue job.
And I had it on hand.
(hahaha).

I take these nifty signs each week.  We usually have several visitors or new move-ins, and lately have been sending off old friends as they move away, or saying farewell to the kids moving into YM/YW.

Posting and testing, now.  Wish me luck.

  1. Hi Tina! I love your "Goodbye Song!" I was wondering if you could put the file of the flip chart on your blog so I could use it in my ward. Thanks for sharing your creativity!

    1. Karen, I added a link to the PDF in the post. You can also access it by clicking on "Visual Aids" at the top of the blog. It's not necessarily a flip chart, but I'm sure it could be made into one. Good luck!
