SAS4Kids: Holiday/Celebration Cards 4 Kids

Hi everyone! Happy World Cardmaking Day! 

It's the first Saturday of October... which means it's time for a new challenge here at Send a Smile 4 Kids. Before we get to this month's cards, here's a quick summary of upcoming holiday deadlines.

Holiday Deadlines: 

- Cute Fall/Halloween: October 5*
- Christmas/Winter - December 5

- Valentine's Day - January 15

* Please note that the Fall/Halloween deadline is TODAY.  If you have cards you were planning on mailing in, please contact your favorite shipper(s) ASAP.

While our shippers are busy putting final touches on their Halloween boxes, our DT was in a more general celebratory mood this month. We have cards for several different holidays... and a couple of birthday cards, too!

In addition, we are thrilled to have Maria Giselle join as a Guest Designer. Not only is Maria Giselle a regular challenge player, but she's also become a bit of a regular as a GDT. To see more of our Guest Designer's wonderful creations, be sure to check out Maria Giselle's Creative Cuts.

 

Maria Giselle, we love your cards. They are always so fun, so colorful! 

Thanks you for sharing your talents with us this month. Can't tell you 

how much we appreciate you and all you do for SAS4Kids.

Whether you're finishing up those Halloween cards or getting started on Christmas cards, remember any kiddie-appropriate card can be linked up for this month's challenge. You have until Friday, November 1 to link up your creation. While you aren't required to donate your linked-up card to SAS4Kids, one of our hospitalized patients would love it if you did. Card submission information can be found by clicking on the tabs at the top of this page.

Thanks for all your help in making all the holidays a little merrier for our kids. We so appreciate it. Hope to see your work of heart in our October Gallery!

SAS4Kids: August Accolades

Hi, everyone! A big thanks to everyone who played along with our August Birthday Card Challenge. There were some seriously cute kiddie birthday cards. Great job, gals!

It's time for a few SAS4Kids shout-outs. Here are three cards that caught our DT's eyes.

3. Marlene

Our team loved all the texture and dimension the embellishments bring to this sweet card.
And Marlene's little bear is precious. Just adorable!

4. Diane

This unicorn is sure to bring a bit of sparkle to a little one's day.
Diane's unique design and pretty color palette make for one special card. So pretty! 

7. Rosi

Looking for a festive birthday card? Not a PROB-LLAMA.
Rosi used her masking skills to create one amazing herd. Love this fun, colorful card!

Congratulations, ladies! Great job!!! Thanks for sharing your amazing talents with us.
