St. Francis Coloring Page

St. Francis's feast day follows the Guardian Angels and is a special friend to Shortcake and one of her sweet girl cousins. Have an stuffed animal tea party. Bring some treats to an animal shelter. Hang a bird feeder or make your own. Just a few ideas to celebrate this beloved saint. We will be making more animal masks and maybe attempting the zoo this year since it doesn't look like rain will be anywhere near our forecast! (Oh, and coloring, of course.) Shortcake chose this picture and while I try not to make these too detailed, she wouldn't let me leave the flowers, birds and rocks out of the background.

  3. Hi. I frequently stop by to view your lovely coloring pages and this time tried to print some for the first time. When I tried it told me that they were private though and that I was not allowed to download them. Can you please tell me what I am doing wrong? Thank you!

  4. I'm sorry, but I don't know what the problem could be. All of the documents are listed as private but that only means that they can't be accessed without clicking through with the link I provide. They can't be searched for openly on Scribd. you should still be able to download them. It seems as if Scribd now wants people to create an account in order to download, but there should be no problem after that. Please let me know if that doesn't work for you.

  5. I posted this comment at a forum but wanted to make sure you saw it.

    I would also like to say thank you for the coloring pages. I was at one of my favorite stores, The Leaflet Missal, and they have tons of coloring books for kids. I started looking through them and I did not buy one because I did not like the coloring pages as much as I like your coloring pages. I like the fact that your coloring pages do not have text. I like the fact that the expressions on the faces of your drawings are so alive. I like the fact that I can see the picture you used as a model. I like the fact that the pages are not busy - but allow the kids to color in detail.

    Thank you for sharing and, as a result, blessing each of us and our children with your gift.
