Visiting Teaching Card Giveaway


I am really excited (and a little nervous) to share something I’ve been working on for the last few weeks. I have really enjoyed sharing my visiting teaching ideas with you for the past 2 years. (2 years! The time has flown.) With the new year, I decided to stretch my creative muscles and design some printables I could sell online.

I just set up an Etsy shop with some fun cards to share with the sisters we visit teach. They are priced at 99 cents per card (or a collection of 5 cards is $3.99), and they are a sweet and fun way to share some love with each other.

They can be dressed up with a little paper or ribbon, but also look great as is. They are printed 4 to a sheet. You can cut them, add a personal message, and either hand deliver, stick in an envelope, or even print as a postcard.
The “Time Flies” card is one of my favorites – it’s a tentative appointment maker, and save the date card rolled into one.
It is helpful to occasionally give our contact information to our sisters, and I’ve shown a few possible ways to do this.


I printed some info on a pretty colored sheet of paper, cut to fit my cards, then stapled, glued, or sewed them on.

To celebrate the debut of my little shop, I’m giving away 5 digital downloads of this card collection. Visit my shop here, then leave a comment on this post telling me which card you like best. I’ll close comments on Monday, January 17 at 9 p.m. ET and post the winning names.
Thank you, as always, for being so kind and supportive.

    I'm glad that you are giving away the card collection, because it would be hard to choose just one. They all speak to a need for at least one sister. The one that speaks to me the most is the "Let us lighten your load" card. That seems to define visiting teaching at its best.

  28. Ann says:

    I love them all. I would love one of each. But if I need to pick on it would be the Care to Chat card.

  42. Ali says:

    My favorite card is "Let us lighten your load". I have a unique situation with my sisters. None of them are active or want to be visited but I try to reach out to them so they will ask for my help. Something like this is perfect for that. Even if I can't share the message, I can still serve :o) Thanks for sharing these.

  43. roxanne says:

    You are a very talented Sister! Love the lamp and old chair. Kinda' reminds me of my great-grandma (yep, I'm older). Do you know, how much of a blessing you are in SO MANY of our lives? I do hope so and my prayer is that you keep creating~and sharing your talents that our Heavenly Father has given to you. God bless and be with you dear Sister.

    I love the "lighten your load" cards. I mean, isn't that the best part of visiting teaching? Knowing that you can help lighten someone's burden and that your burden can be lightened? I know mine has and am so grateful for this wonderful program.
