Our fifth meeting ~ Rubber Stamping


 

This afternoon our group met for Rubber Stamping fun.  I had set up 5 tables in the kitchen so everyone had table space and a chair. The girls arrived and took a seat. We started off with our song, verse, prayer, purpose and goal.

 

We chatted about our last activities – ice skating & knitting. A group of the girls had already hit the rink again since our last Keepers meeting. Everyone enjoyed that activity and they all accomplished the skills from the book and earned their badges~ Way to go girls! (The knitting you can read about in the next entry below)  

 

 

Shonda led today’s Rubber Stamping and did the Bible study before hand. She did a great job!

 

She asked the girls what are they making when they press the rubber stamp onto a piece of paper? The answer was of course, an exact image. She then had the girls read these Bible verses:

Genesis 1:27 

So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.

 

1 Corinthians 4:15-16

Even though you have ten thousand guardians in Christ, you do not have many fathers, for in Christ Jesus I became your father through the gospel. Therefore I urge you to imitate me.

…which she followed up by talking about how we are made in God's image and we are called to become a closer image of Jesus, acting like he would have us, walking where he leads, being a blessing to those in need. Great way to tie in Rubber Stamping!

 Then there were a few instructions on how to make a clean imprint, by not rocking the stamp. How to clean the ink off the stamps and not mixing the colors on the stamp pads. Shonda had brought over a HEAP of paper goods- there was all kinds of stuff for the girls to experiment with. different textures of paper, different types of stamp pads, stamp pens, ribbons, glitter, scissors, and more. Then the girls went at it and made their cards.  They all enjoyed themselves and were quite creative!

 

We talked about how they could use their cards to write Letters to their friends or to Missionaries where they could receive other badges as well.

 

We ended the day with afternoon tea: hot cocoa with whipped cream & sprinkles and some yummy cake and cookies that Indy and Keira brought along.

  

Rubber Stamping was an easy activity that all the girls were able to accomplish. Check out our fun day!
