I’m always trying to think of something special to give to nieces and nephews for baptism gifts. It’s hard to think of something that’s fun and still meaningful! I’ve been so excited to see the fun LDS baptism printables popping up lately on Pinterest and was inspired by my niece’s upcoming baptism to make a version of my own. And, lucky you, I made them up in Word so they can be downloaded, customized with a name and date and printed from home! They print on an 8 1/2 x 11 sheet of paper but are then cut to fit into a 4×6 frame.
To download the Blue and Green version click here
For the Pink and Green version click here
To customize, just open in word and click on the name and date to delete current info and add your own info. Be sure to adjust the font size so that your information is the same width as the rest of the wording- that’s what will make it look the best!
Stick this print in a fun frame for a great, affordable baptism gift! I’ve included a few suggestions above- a double frame works perfectly to pair the print with a photo of the baptism girl or boy. Having each guest sign the mat would make it an extra special memory of the day.
I’m pairing my niece’s print with a white and silver baptism bracelet. I’m still deciding what to pair the print with for boys. There’s always a tie tack, but I feel like those are less exciting to boys than a bracelet is to a girl… Any ideas?

Computers are all a little different and I’m certainly no computer genius! I try to make these files work on everyone’s computer, but if it doesn’t seem to be working on yours, you can create your own Baptism Printable in just a few minutes. Just download the images below and visit our Designing in Microsoft Word tutorial to learn how to upload the image into Word and add custom text.
To download these images, click on the color you’d like. That will bring you to a page with the full sized image. Right click on the image and pick ‘Save Image As…”
Cherie Napoleon says
Thank you very much! This was the perfect gift for me to give to three little girls who were baptized and joined our Activity Day group!
Jess says
Great! I’m so glad someone else is using it!
Chantel says
LOVE it! Thanks So much!
andrea says
Thanks so much for this. We have a YW that is being baptized and I was trying to think of a nice gift from the girls. I printed this and I’m going to have all the YW sign a matte and then we’ll frame it and give it to her on her special day. Thanks again 🙂
Jess says
What a great idea! So glad it’s getting used!
Willow says
Thank you so much!! I was going to purchase one, but this is perfect for our oldest’s baptism after Christmas!! Totally appreciate it being customizable!!
Tahesh says
I have been looking for this for the longest. Thank you for sharing.
Nanette says
Thank you so much for sharing! Darling gifts!
amy says
Thank you so much! I just started these for our Primary children’s 8th birthdays. What a beautiful and meaningful gift for their baptism.
Crystal Black says
Thank you for this. My son just got baptized today. This will make a great reminder for him. I just bought some cute frames that will fit this perfectly. I’ll need to make one for each of my children….
brittney remali says
I love this! Can’t wait to use it for my daugters baptism.
Jenice says
So cute! I want to give it to our Primary kids the Sunday after they are baptized! We had a baptism today, so I’d like one for tomorrow. But I’m having an issue…What program are you using to open it? I can’t get it to open on my end. I tried microsoft word, but it only shows the customizable part, and nothing else. I tried to open in wordpad, but then the customizable part is missing, and the rest is fuzzy. Help please!
Sweetbriar Sisters says
Hmmm.. I’m not sure what’s going on- let me look into and I’ll get back to you!
Sweetbriar Sisters says
It seems like there was something funny going on with the Pink and Green version- I updated the link with a new file and am hoping that fixes the problem. They should open in Microsoft Word. Let me know if that doesn’t do the trick!
Jenice says
Hmmm… still not working… on either one… Bummer 🙁
Shelly says
These are adorable! I can’t get them to open either however 🙁
Sweetbriar Sisters says
Hmmm…. I’m not sure what’s going on! They seem to be ok from my end. I made them in Word 2010. Are you guys using a different version? If so, let me know what it is and I’ll see if that’s the problem!
Shelly says
I also have word 2010. It says there is corrupted content in the document. The only thing that shows is the editable content (name and date) with a picture box for the rest that says picture cannot be displayed.
Sweetbriar Sisters says
I’m sorry! I just checked it on a few different computers and there seems to be no problem. I officially have no idea what’s going wrong! If only I knew more about computers… 🙂
Here’s what I did instead- at the end of this post there’s now the ability to save the middle part of the printable as a jpeg (it has everything on it but the name and date). I also wrote up a tutorial on how to put that jpeg into a Word file and add your own Name/Date text boxes. (I added a link to it in the post as well)
The process only takes a few minutes, and then you should have a version that works on your computer.
Sorry for the trouble!
Shelly says
I’ll try that! Thank YOU for making them available in the first place 🙂
Kristen Key says
I’ve tried both and it still won’t work for me. My WORD converts it from .docx and doesn’t show the picture part…just a black box. Maybe I’ll try making this on my own in CS5 like I did a custom Baptism announcement as well. 🙁
Jen says
Thank you so much! I love these, and they will be amazing gifts for baptisms! You are so generous!
Julynn Ordyna says
Love these! Thank you for sharing and making them so easy to customize
Nadia says
Thank you for sharing, it’s so cute!
Jackie says
Just wanted to add my thanks – such a nice graphic! I prepared 2 for some girls in the ward who were baptised this weekend and when their mothers posted their baptism pictures on Facebook I just pasted the pictures over the temple image to make it even more personal. Looks fantastic, thank you so much again! 🙂
Allison Brenn says
Thank you so much for sharing this! I found it on Pinterest and plan to print a few for the kids in our ward getting baptized this year. Thanks for helping this Primary President to recognize the kids without breaking the budget!
Bri says
Thank you so very much for sharing these. They are exactly what I was looking for. Perfect gifts for my nephew and piano student getting baptized this coming month. How sweet are you to do all that work and share it with the rest of us who still have goals to one day learn to use our computers!?! Thanks again. Love the blog!
Angela says
Thank-you too. I’m making a little baptism album for my granddaughter, this is perfect.
bluepoohbear75 says
Thank you.
Marj says
Thank you! So cute!
Sis JC says
thank you sooooo much! Our primary kids will love this.
forgive me for asking, but what font did you use for “of latter-day saints”? I love it! My husband always calls me a font nerd.
Sweetbriar Sisters says
Thanks! I’m so glad you like it! The font is Bickley Script. 🙂
caitylady3 says
Thanks so much!! I LOVE this design. My niece will be so happy.
Gaby says
Thank you so much for these beautiful FREE printables! I will be using them this weekend for my son’s baptism. Sunny greetings from Guatemala!
Busymomma says
Thank you so much for sharing your creativity, I love this idea, what a fun way to remember your baptism date.
Lisa says
I loved using it for the front of invitations for my daughter’s baptism because it testifies of what baptism truly signifies. Thank you for sharing this!
Sweetbriar Sisters says
What a great idea! Thanks so much for sharing it, I’m sure it will be used by many people (including myself the next time I make a baptism program!)
Ande says
Thank you it is prefect for my daughters baptism in two weeks. You have taken the hard work away from me.
Melissa says
Thank you! Making it for my niece today!
Jennifer says
Thank you! We are a new presidency and these will be great for our primary children. This is so good of you to let us have them for free, they are beautiful.
Ashley says
Is there anyway to get this to fill a 8X10 paper and not be fuzzy?
Jessica says
sorry- it’s only made for 4×6 frames. That’s the best I can do for free stuff- you could always get a mat so the smaller image works in your frame!
terresa says
Thank you for sharing these! I am using another program to edit with. Can you tell me the name of the font you used for the name and date?
Jessica says
So glad they’re getting used! The font is called Adobe Caslon Pro. I believe you can download it for free online if your computer doesn’t have it.
terresa says
Thank you! 🙂
LeAnn says
Thank you for your creative design. I tweaked it a bit to use for my granddaughter. Love it.
Veri says
Thank you! You rock!
Lavonne says
Thank you! Really nice subway art design.
Dawn says
Thank you for sharing your design. Exactly what I needed… Love it!
Krista says
Thanks a ton for this….love it!
Melanie M says
I love this design! I’m coming back to it again and again to customize as a gift for my Primary class kids as they get baptized throughout the year. Thank you for helping me be a great teacher!
Jessica says
Melanie- I’m so glad! It’s so nice to hear that the time I put into designing things was worth it 🙂
Peyton says
Thank you for sharing your talent so freely! We have been using this template, customizing it and framing it in an inexpensive Ikea frame for baptism gifts. The response I have gotten has been amazing. The kids love them, the parents and other family members think they are beautiful! Thank you!!!!!
Jessica says
I’m so glad to hear it is getting used!
ADonner says
Thank you Love it! I added Always Remember him to the promises and it is perfect. Thank you for sharing!
Jen says
Thank you so much for sharing your talent! This is such a wonderful way to make a baptism day extra special and memorable !
Rachel says
What a sweet way to share your Talents! Thank you from a less than computer savvy Mom!
Heidi says
Many thanks! These are beautiful! My daughter’s favorite color is blue, so we are using that one for her Baptism! Thank you again!
Deeann says
Thank You! I am so grateful you shared this!
Cathy W. says
Thank you. This is perfect for someone in their teens as well. I’m printing it up as an invitation to a family members baptism this Saturday.
Sheree says
Sorry to be a problem. I don’t know how to get the document back to the full page size. I have tried everything I know. Thanks
Jessica says
Sheree- the design is sized to fit into a standard frame, so it’s not meant to be a full page. (just cut around the image to stick it in a frame!
Kristina says
Thank you so much, this will make a great card !!
Tricia says
LOVE this! Thanks for making it and posting it! Is there anyway to make it an 8×10?
Jessica says
Just comes in that size- sorry!
Tricia says
I just tried to print using Microsoft word and the name shows up but under it is a black box- so weird! I’m bumming!
Jessica says
Sorry Tricia- I’m afraid I’m not good enough at computers to know why it doesn’t work for everything. 🙂 At the end of the post there are instruction on how to set up the file on your own if it’s not working on your computer!
Jo7nes says
Thank you SO much! This will be darling as a framed print for my great nephew’s bedroom — his baptism is at the end of the month. I love it and appreciate your generosity!
Lissa says
Is there any way to change the colors and temple? It’s so cute!
Jessica says
Lissa- there is no quick way to change colors or the temple. You are welcome to bring load the image into image editing program (like Photoshop) and change it if you like. (I am not worried about copyright on this guy, so feel free to do whatever you want with the image) I wish I had all the time in the world to make the changes people request, but I just don’t have time to do it for my free items. Sorry!
Brooke says
I love this..but I need to change the church name? Is there a way I can do that?
Jessica says
Brooke, you’re welcome to bring the image into Photoshop (or your preferred image editing program) and change whatever you like!
J Sweeten says
I love this and am so excited to use it for Primary this upcoming year. Are there two different colors, peach and a pink for the girls? For some reason, when I download both colors it only brings up the peach one. Thanks!
Jessica says
There are two color schemes- a blue & green and a pink & green. The previews might look more pink than peach depending on your monitor settings, but they should print the same.
joshandkimberly says
This is soooo helpful! Thank you! This will be perfect for the baptism this Saturday!
Kellie says
I used this printable 2 years ago for my kiddos baptism (I put the 4×6 printable in an 8×10 frame with a mat that friends could write on for his big day) and now I get to personalize and print another for a good friends son this weekend and this summer use it once again for my next kiddos baptism. I hope it is a keepsake they will hold on to forever. Thank you SO much for sharing your talent!!! 🙂
Jessica says
So glad to hear it!
Misti Pinckney says
Hi! Is there a way to turn this in to a baptism program?
Misti Pinckney says
Hi! Can this be made in to a foldable baptism program? It’s great to be 8! Thanks!
Jessica says
You definately could. The easiest way would be to customize the info. Then save the Word file as an image (do a Google search of the phrase ‘save Word file as an image’ for a tutorial) that you can use on the front of the program.
cheryl says
This is fantastic. Thanks so much for sharing!!
jennyg374 says
Thanks so much for sharing! I will be using these this year in Primary!
Jessica says
I’m so glad to hear it!
Julia says
This design is so cute! I’m glad I found it! I recently started making journals and thought it would be a cute cover. I haven’t yet opened my etsy shop, but I wanted to contact you and ask if that was okay to use them and make an attempt at selling them? I would private message you, but wasn’t sure how. If I were to sell any I would be happy to reimburse you in some way, but I wanted to get your permission before I posted anything. thanks!
Jessica says
Julia, You’re welcome to use it! I’d love for you to credit the design (a link to our site in your product description would be perfect) Thanks so much for asking- good luck!
Patti says
Thank you for sharing your hard work. This will be perfect for my granddaughter.
Amber Wiser says
Thank you so very much! I was so surprised at your kindness. I greatly appreciate this.
MaryLou Burgoyne says
Just wanted to thank you so very much for this adorable and fun card/printable. Just what I needed to go with a little gift — I actually folded it as a stand-up card to put in an envelope. I really appreciate your willingness to share. Best wishes and blessings to you!
a says
Thank-you so much for allowing each of us to share your cute download!! We’re using this at our Grandson’s baptism.

Candida says
Thank you so much for making and sharing this. It is fun to have a new and different personalized gift to give! You have been very generous to share this at no cost. I have always been a believer that gospel things should be shared, not sold.
nauvoomissionary says
What a lifesaver! You are so kind and brilliant too! Your talent is much appreciated.

Janell Brown says
Thank you so much for sharing your talents! Creating anything like this is not my thing. You’re the best!
Shelly Dueri says
Thank you so much for sharing your talents with us!! This truly is my favorite layout!! I am hoping I can get it to an 8×10 size. If not, I think I will print it and have her family and friends write notes to her around it so she can have a great keepsake. Wish you the very best!!
Amie says
Awesome! Thank you for making things so pretty for the kids in primary.
JJ says
Thank you so much! Love this!
Becky says
Thank you so much for those cute printables. They will work great for all of my Great 2 Be 8’s. I am so excited. Again thank you for sharing your talent with those of use who are less fortunate 🙂
Becky says
Thank you so very much for sharing your special talent with those of us that are less fortunate. I have 9 of my primary children being baptized this year and was stressing on what to give them that would be fair and equal. These were perfect!!!! The ones that have been baptized (I have 2 left) were sooo excited (but I honestly think their moms were more than them) lol
Again THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart. (June 25, 2017)
Becky says
Thank you so much for sharing! This is just what I was looking for to give my son for his upcoming baptism! 🙂
Ashley says
Thank you! Love it and am using it for my niece!
Char says
THANK YOU!!!! I’m so excited to give these to our 10 primary children getting baptized this year!
Carol says
