SAS4Kids: April Accolades!

 Hi, everyone! Thanks for stopping by Send a Smile 4 Kids!

Wow! There were so many wonderful Mom/Special Lady cards in last month's gallery.  A special thank you to everyone who sent Mom Cards to their favorite shipper(s). The thought of all the smiles your cards brought to the moms of in-patient kiddos warms all of our hearts at SAS4Kids. 

Here are three cards that caught the eyes of our Design Team gals.


#1 Donna W

The team just loved Donna's CAS design and attention to detail.
Just look at those gorgeous butterfly wings!


Inkami wowed us with the unique design she created
through her creative use of dies. What a lovely card!

#14 Mary Marsh

Mary created a beautiful serene scene
that showcases a lovely mama swan... and a trio of cygnets!

Congratulations, ladies! Thank you for sharing your amazing talents with us.

Our current challenge is making cards for kids to give to the Dads/Special Guy and runs until June 3. However, any kiddie-appropriate card can be linked up for the challenge. 

  • It is not required that you donate your card after entering, but a hospitalized kiddie/tween/teen surely would appreciate it if you did. 
  • The deadline for dad and summer cards is May 15. Please check with your shipper(s) if your cards are going to be arriving after that date.

As always, thanks soooo much for your support of SAS4Kids. We can't thank you enough for all the smiles you bring to our SAS4Kids patients and their families.

SAS4Kids: Cards 4 Dads/Special Guys

Welcome, friends! We extend Mother's Day greetings to everyone who has loved a child, to everyone who has been loved by a child. And if this is a bittersweet holiday, please give yourself permission to be gentle with yourself these next few days.

Now that Mother's Day cards have been delivered to our hospitals, our Design Team has turned its attention to cards for dads and special guys. This challenge is to make a card for a child/teen/tween to give to a special man in his/her life. Please note that the deadline for getting Father's Day cards -- as well as summer cards -- to our shippers is May 15. If you have any questions about mailing out your cards, please double check with your shipper.

And, without further ado, let's take a look at what our DT came up with for this month's challenge.
