FREE 2017 Young Women Theme Printables

  It's been awhile since I have created anything for young womens, but when I saw the new theme for 2017 I just had to create some cute binder covers and posters! In case you missed it, the 2017 mutual theme was announced here!

I am SO excited to study and ponder the new theme which is based off the scripture from James 1:5,

"IF ANY OF YOU LACK WISDOM, LET HIM ASK OF GOD"!

I decided to whip up some FREE printable binder covers and posters to celebrate the new 2017 young women theme. When I thought about the new theme and about "If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask God" I couldn't help but think about when Joseph Smith read that same scripture, and decided to act upon his faith and pray. I love that the new theme encourages the youth to pray. I can't wait to read more about the 2017 theme and curriculum! " I decided to create some designs that are somewhat rustic and reminiscent of the sacred grove and that moment Joseph Smith decided to pray to Heavenly Father.

 I hope you and your young women enjoy these FREE 2017 Theme Printables!

COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

CAN I ALTER OR EDIT YOUR DESIGNS?

I put a lot of time and effort into creating and sharing these files. In return I ask that you please to no alter or change my design in anyway. That would include translations, adding wording, adjusting the design, etc. If you are interested in a design alteration or addition, I would be happy to help! You can make a request through my Etsy site for a small fee!

HOW DO YOU CREATE YOUR DESIGNS?

I am actually a self-taught graphic designer! I am currently using Adobe Illustrator to create all of my designs.
