A last minute little something...

My mom asked me to do something with my dad's Priesthood Line of Authority for Father's Day so he could have it nicely displayed in his office. I came up with the design below after seeing some other ideas. Scanned a picture of Christ, faded the image and added text over the top of it. Printed it on high quality photo paper and found a nice, dark wood frame to encase it. She also asked me to shrink one down to a 5x7 size and laminate it so he could carry it around in his scriptures. Really easy project with HUGE significance to the men in our lives.

Just a last minute idea in case you were looking for a little something extra.

If any of you would like this done for your hubbies or fathers and don't have the resources to make one, shoot me an e-mail or leave a comment and I would be more than happy to help you out. I will just need you to e-mail me the information found on their "line of authority" card. I will prepare the file and send it back to you in a jpeg format. You can have it printed in your home or wherever you want.

Please have the requests to me before Friday since Scott is coming into town. Once he is here I find it hard to think about anything else!

Tara, I did a priesthood line of authority for Frank and my dad. I actually did a picture pedigree type format. I wish I had the thing on this computer and I would send it to you through the email so you could see it. I think it's a neat concept to have the photo of each person. Anyway, I love your idea too, and it's really great that you're offering your idea and services to others! You're awesome!

Marina - I actually thought of that too, having a picture of each person in his line on the page. However, I couldn't locate a few of them and needed more time to contact their families to request one. Great idea though! I would love to see the one you did for Frankie!

Tara, what a fantastic idea! I'd love to do one for my dad and father-in-law. (I've spent the morning hunting for Jerry Garcia ties, scary I know) If you were to send me your jpeg example, would I be able to cut and paste the names and dates on it? I'd hate to make you do the work for it. Thanks so much! Let me know, here's my email or you can respond to the email listed. Jen (Jolley) Dobson, jennifer@woodyattlaw.com

Great idea, want to do one for me know? When am I going to figure out how to do things like this?

Tara said...

Crystal - You don't have time to figure something easy like this out because you are too busy being super woman/mom and getting a billion college degrees.

I am so proud of you!
