Christmas in July 4 Kids!

It’s Saturday and time for another fun challenge here at Send a Smile 4 Kids! This time our challenge is Christmas in July 4 Kids. Create and link any holiday card for a child and you could win one of our great prizes.

We are running this challenge now to remind you that it is never too early to start making our holiday cards, and we would love for every child in the eight Children’s Hospitals we serve to receive a holiday card. But even better would be if there was enough holiday cards that each could pick out a few for special people in their lives they are missing while spending Christmas in the hospital, or to say thank you to the medical staff. You do not have to send in your cards when you participate in our challenges, but our kids would sure love it if you did!

We have three very generous sponsors this week: Crackerbox Palace is giving their winner a $15 gift certificate! And Clear Dollar Stamps is giving their randomly picked winner a $15 gift certificate! Di’s Digi’s winner will receive a $10 voucher!  TEAM S.A.S will also be choosing their favorite cards for our top three and the winners will receive a blog badge and an opportunity to be a guest design team member on a future challenge.

Now for some great inspiration, here are the cards created by TEAM S.A.S. for this challenge using our generous sponsors’ images. To visit any of their blogs or to go to our sponsor’s websites, just click on any of the names or the pictures at the side of our blog.

It’s Saturday and time for another fun challenge here at Send a Smile 4 Kids! This time our challenge is Punches and/or Diecuts 4 Kids. Create and link any card for a child featuring punches and/or diecuts and you could win one of our great prizes.

We have three very generous sponsors this week: Delicious Doodles is giving their winner 4 digis of their choice! And Sassy Studios is giving their randomly picked winner 4 digis of their choice! QKR Stampede’s winner will receive 5 digis of their choice!  TEAM S.A.S will also be choosing their favorite cards for our top three and the winners will receive a blog badge and an opportunity to be a guest design team member on a future challenge.

Today is doubly exciting for us here at Send a Smile 4 Kids because we get to introduce a new member of TEAM S.A.S. to you. Angie Boutiller has been a frequent player in our challenges and has been chosen for the Top Three. She has a wonderful blog here and is a great supporter of our cause. We asked Angie to share some words to introduce herself to you and this is what she shared:

My name is Angela Boutiller.  I was born, raised, and still reside in Altoona, Pennsylvania. I married my husband, George. We have been together for 18 years. We have 5 children (4 boys and 1 girl). (Trent, 15; Haden, 13; Riley, 10; George,9,  Alex, 7. )  Seriously, I am a self professed book nerd! I tend to overuse the ellipses I don't know what God was thinking when he blessed me with rough and tough boys that play just about every sport. My life is a work in progress and always chaotic! I have just completed my 12th year of teaching 7th grade. I am a Special Education Teacher. At the start of the new school year, I'll be teaching 12th grade! This is going to be a big change for me but I am excited. I started making cards a year ago this month. I needed a hobby!  I can spend hours coloring an image with my beloved Copic markers. I really like making cards and sending them to where I know it will put a smile on someone's face. I donate to Operation Write Home, SAS4K, Cards for Hospitalized Kids, and I am an approved angel through the Soldiers' Angels organization. I am a member of the Letter Writing Team. I make cards, write a letter inside, and send it off to a deployed military service member. I am so looking forward to being a part of your team. 

We are thrilled to have Angie as a part of our team and here are the cards she created for this challenge with our sponsor’s images:

We are also happy to have a guest designer from QKR Stampede sharing a card with us today! Thank you Mian for this fun holiday card featuring QKR digis and punches and diecuts:
