Back 2 School Resources for The Way of Love

backpack tag

This year, our church is adopting The Way of Love as our theme for formation and evangelism, which mean that our Backpack Tags needed to reflect this theme.

Working with a tight budget and a short time frame these are what we came up with.

Double-sided business cards placed in name badge holders, clipped with loose-leaf binder rings.

We used a local printer, ordered the rings and holders online, and the total cost for 100 was around $50.

The best part? Because I used an online design program, anyone can customize these cards and print.

How to print and customize your tags:

1. Visit Canva.com and create an account.

2. Follow THIS LINK

3. In the top lefthand corner, under FILE, choose MAKE A COPY

4. Click on the places where you want to insert your churches name and information.

5. Download as both a PNG and then as a PDF ( I did both so that I had the options for my printer.)

6. Send to your favorite printer.


In addition to the Backpack tags we also handed out The Way of Love Back-to-School Blessing prayer and coloring sheet, which you will find below - and can download and print.
