SAS4Kids: July Jewels

Hi, everyone! Oh my gosh! There were so many cute cards in our Christmas in July Gallery last month. We card makers sure do love making cards for the holidays, don't we?!

A huge thank you to everyone who played along with us. Here are three cards that caught our designers' eyes.

5. Cornelia

Fabulous single-layered CAS cards are always works of art...
and these beautifully-colored critters are adorable. Terrific job, Cornelia!

8. Chris

Chris's snow family is sure to bring a huge smile to a little face,
and we know kids of all ages love fun-folds. 
. 

15. Rosi

Rosi offers up a punny sentiment that a tween/teen is sure to appreciate.
And, that fussy-cutting is amazing. Seriously AMAZING!

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

• Be sure to grab our Top 3 badge to display on your blog.
• If you would like to join us as a Guest Designer for a future challenge, email Sybrina at cards[dot]by[dot]sybrina[at]gmail[dot]com. Please include SAS4Kids DT in your email subject line.

Our current Birthday Cards 4 Kids Challenge runs until September 1. 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 young patient in one of the SAS4Kids hospitals would surely love it if you did. For information about donating cards, click on the tabs at the top of our blog. Please check your shippers' needs before sending cards their way. 

Again, a huge thanks to everyone who played along last month. And, as always, thank you for all you do for SAS4Kids. The hospital staffs and our patients' families so appreciate it!
