In my last post I showed you the quote plate that I made with vinyl that was inspired by a talk by Dieter F. Uchtdorf who said: "In Family Relationships love is really spelled t-i-m-e. Taking time for each other is the key for harmony at home." (Of Things that Matter Most) and from this short inspirational video (5 min.): To A Child Love is Really Spelled T-I-M-E. I know that I personally have already benefited from reading this little reminder each day and hope you will enjoy these prints in your home as well!
In case you missed it...
{Tutorial on using contact paper to apply vinyl.}
I included prints that will fit perfectly on a square block from a 2 x 4 (measures 3 1/2" x 3 1/2"). The block with the picture of Christ is finished, but the quote is only taped onto the other block (over a photo of my son) to show you how it would look.
There are five color choices; grey, blue, mustard, tan, and black and white. Narrowing it down to only five was so tough for me, so keep reading and I'll share a link with you on how to recolor a black and white image to any color you choose.
FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY
Prints are not to be sold or used on any items for sale.
*You do not have permission to post these prints on your blog or website.
*You do have permission to Pin them if you'd like.
*You do not have permission to post these prints on your blog or website.

The black and white prints can be used to:
- Copy onto scrapbook paper or a solid colored paper to Mod Podge onto a wood block, tutorial on the technique here and here.
- Recolor the image, tutorial here.
- Use the tracing feature in the Silhouette program to cut it in vinyl or with contact paper to use as a stencil, tutorial here.
How to save the prints:
To save a full resolution image to your computer, right click on the image and click to open it in a new tab. Then right click on it again and choose to save it as an image to your computer. Now you can use your picture manager program on your computer to print it at home or you can send/take it to a photo shop to have it printed.
How to size the prints:
Save the print to your computer as an image then insert the image into a document (I use Microsoft Publisher, Word works too). Size the image according to the directions in the program you are using and print. (Tip: Dollar Tree sells 8 1/2 x 11" premium photo paper for 8 sheets for a dollar that I really like.)
The large images can be printed up to an 8 x 8 and the smaller images (3 x 3) are saved to print as a 4 x 6 print.
Have a great day!!!

thanks for sharing--this is a darling saying, janet!
ANOTHER THANK YOU!!! Just found your site when searching for blogging tips (may you be sainted!) and thought I'd look around. Rewind a bit: earlier tonight, my 13 year old son asked me to play Nerf basketball in the playroom. I was over-the-moon frustrated with my blog, nothing was working as it should, the formatting/HTML was making me NUTS, BUT... I walked away for 20 minutes to play with him. Can I tell you? Twenty minutes of THE MOST FUN we've had together in a while. When I came upon your post (long after he'd gone to bed) about family, love and time it simply affirmed the truth for me: no post, no task, no "gotta just finish this..." is worth more then TIME with your loved ones. And nothing can bring that time back - so cherish it. Right? Thank you. I think I'll be back to your blog quite a bit!
To Gretchen: Right! It's amazing how fast time can pass, especially when we get busy. I've really taken this quote to heart as well so I don't know how often I will be posting in the future, but I'd love to have you drop by when I do. :)
