ABC Book Directions

Sisters-
Per request I have posted the Gospel ABC book online so you can download it and get prints made. You’ll find a zipped folder that contains the 26 letters, the back page, plus 3 versions of the cover.
Simply upload the pictures to any photo printing website and order 4x6 prints of each. Find a 4x6 photo brag book that you can remove the cover they insert. I found mine at Target in the scrapbook section. I also used plastic mirror sheets (at JoAnns, 6x9 then cut in ¼). Or you could use a picture of the child.
Additionally, you’ll need 4 pictures: family, grandparents, mom, dad. These you will crop to approx 3x4.

That’s it!
Click on this link and then ‘save’. Put it somewhere you can get to, then double click it to unzip.

I’d like to give credit to Christine Jenson who posted the original idea on enrichmentcottage.com. She made hers page size in a binder. If you want yours larger you can refer to hers.

Finally – my personal copy that I put out for a sample disappeared Friday night. If anyone ended up with an extra please let me know. My families pictures are in it and I think it had a green cover. Thanks!
Also – I tried to keep a tally of who made theirs, who didn’t, and who is missing their mirror. If you don’t hear from me and you still need something please contact me!

Enjoy!
