How to Create Your Thumbprint Conference Scene
We walk you through the steps in our tutorial video on this page but to sum up, here’s what you need to know:
- Stamp your thumbs - Choose your favorite colors to start stamping little thumbprints on your page. We like this multi-colored stamp pad.
- Add doodle details - Use your pen to turn each thumbprint into something special- the prophet, apostles, etc.
- Build your scene - Follow the video to learn how to make a podium, the apostles and prophet, audience members, and plants.
- Make it yours - Add your own touches- quotes from past talks, names of apostles, the organ, or anything personal that makes it meaningful for your family. Stickers are another easy but fun option to add on.
It’s a creative, gospel-centered activity that can be done with a just a few supplies and colored thumbs. Frame it, gift it, or tuck it into your General Conference notebook to remember.
