Each of the resources below is available for download as a pdf or Word file and/or image. In most cases, I have also provided the Canva Template Link so that you may edit the file to make it better meet your needs.

ILLUMINATION EASTER INVITATIONS
Have an outreach Easter weekend? We have a large community event on Saturday, the day before Easter, and we always like to hand something out to invite kids back for VBS. I made these up as options: The first two are just simple invitation with an Easter flare. Drop below if you’d like some options with little treasures attached.
Here are the background images you can use in any program…

Our younger kiddos love dot marker pages! These are fun with dot markers/bingo daubers or use stickers for even less mess! Add your info with the Canva link, or just print out the pdf below and write it in!
Need dot markers? They can be a little pricey, but the decent ones last awhile. I found this set on Amazon—pretty good reviews and less expensive than a lot of the others.
