Oops- I screwed up L I usually have the 5^th Saturday of the month off and forgot that in July and August we were a week behind schedule because of July  4^th falling on a Saturday. Sorry, the announcement of the winners for CAS 4 Kids is a couple days late. But today we get to make 6 lucky and talented participants in our CAS 4 Kids challenge very happy!  We have three lucky winners of our randomly chosen sponsor prizes and we are also announcing our Top Three.

The lucky winner of the $25 gift certificate from Kitchen Sink Stamps is #18 C. Melton!  The winner of 7 digis of their choice from Bugaboo is #6 Patricia H!  And the winner of the prize of 3 digis from Lacy Sunshine is #11 Lucy P!  Congrats to the winners! Please grab your winner’s blog badge from the side of the blog and send me an email via the Contact Form also on the side of the blog, and I will put you in touch with the sponsor to claim your prize.  Thanks as always to our wonderful sponsors!

CAS 4 Kids Challenge

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

We chose this Clean and Simple theme to remind you that kids don’t need layers and layers or tons of embellishments on their cards to love them. But we also mean to point out that they deserve love and attention, so when making cards for our kids in the 15 hospitals we serve, please don’t smoke while making them, and do send in cards you would be proud to share with someone you love.

(July and August challenges will be on the 2^nd and 4^th Saturdays because of the holiday weekend. We will be back to our usual 1^st and 3^rd Saturdays in September.)

We have three very generous sponsors for this challenge: Bugaboo is giving their winner 7 digis of their choice!  Lacy Sunshine is giving their randomly picked winner 3 digis!  And Kitchen Sink Stamp’s winner gets a $25 gift certificate!
