Song Book & CD Label

In my SonQuest files I have 2 types of files for the reproducible CDs, the CD label and the songbook. For the Songbook you can download it either as the MS PowerPoint that you can edit or the .pdf file that is ready to print as is.

I recommend the PowerPoint file so you can add you church name and dates to the back cover. You will also need to adjust how the pages print double sided to your printer. The front and back need to line up.

You will print the file double sided, cut to size (2 pages), layer and fold, staple like a booklet.

The fonts I used were Comic Sans MS (a basic MS font) and Ravie (I downloaded for free on-line).

For the labels - I use a program called "Sure Thing Label Maker" I will add the file if you would like it to edit. I have saved the label as an image you can put into your own label program or use as an idea for designing your own.

This is what the labels look like:

The full label


The CD label w/ my church name on it....I added the year, but I might add the dates too.


The kids label - blank


The kids label - w/ SonQuest on the top and music cd on the bottom.

Daily Pennants

Today I scanned the daily pennants - I have put the .pdf files w/ other 2010 VBS Fiels (here).

There has to be an easier way, but I was able to print them as .jpg files and upload them to my Photo Bucket. You can download them as images by clicking the thumbnails below.

It's time to kick starty the VBS planning!

I thought I would come back to this blog as a place to share my thoughts and keep my files organized. This year I will be directing SonQuest Rainforest. Currently I have links to my yearly songbook (that can be included w/ a cd) and a rough draft of Monday's newsletter. I have completed a CD label and will publish that in one of my next posts.

This week I am preparing for my 1st 'Brain Storming and Planning Meeting'. I hope to have the teachers books and resources copied and ready to hand out. So far I am just trying to clean up my files from last year.
10 1/2 weeks til VBS!

OK so the GL boards are driving me crazy - I can't post. I am wondering how many other people are having this problem and maybe that is why the boards have been so quite.

Anyway this is a message I was trying to post about my group signs:

Here are the corrected signs. I now only have 1 bear and added Busy Beavers. I wanted a yellow animal so I added a yellow crest to the hummingbird. For my orange sign I added a carrot for the bunny. I used the same light green for the lizards words.

Oh - and the labels I will add to the name tags I am so excited I can't wait to print them!!!!

So I don't update here often. Lately I haven't posted on the GL boards either. I am as fired up as ever for VBS but my feet are just stuck in the mud. I'm not getting much done at all. Soon, very soon. I am charging up my Power Scissors and I will be cutting am painting like crazy. Until then check out my files.

Wordle.net

I had TOO much fun at this sight. I used Wordle.net to make a wordle of VBS words. I'm not sure what I'll do with it, but it's cool. Maybe a pre-publicity poster, I included the date. I also made some for Sunday School w/ John 3:16 (current memory verse) and The Lord's Prayer. It's a fun way to hang a memory verse. I have been know to hang Bible verse scrambles up in the rooms that other groups use.....just making them look twice.




If you want to make your own I used these words.

The "~" keeps words together and the more a word is repeated the larger it is. Have fun making your own.


PS- I printed mine with PDFCreator and saved as a .jpg.

SonRock Kids Camp Song Book

I have added the 'Song Book' to my SRKC file list. You can download it either as the MS PowerPoint that you can edit or the .pdf file that you can not edit (unless you have fnacy softwear I don't have).

I recommend the PowerPoint file so you can add you church name and dates to the back cover. You will also need to adjust how the pages print double sided to your printer. The front and back need to line up.

You will print the file double sided, cut to size (2 pages), layer and fold, staple like a booklet.

The fonts I used were Comic Sans MS (a basic MS font) and Mirisch (I downloaded for free on-line).
