Hello and Happy 2026! All of us here at SAS4Kids hope you have enjoyed a wonderful holiday season and have created lots of special memories with your loved ones.
before we get to our first challenge of this new year, I have the pleasure of announcing the December participant who has been randomly selected to join us as a Guest Designer. This month's lucky number was 2 Cozy Season.
Congratulations, Jose! Please be sure to send me an email, including SAS4Kids in the subject line, at cards[dot]by[dot]sybrina[at]gmail[dot]com to schedule your upcoming guest designer appearance. A huge shout-out to all those who played along with us last month. Favorite holiday color combo was a new challenge for us, and it was fun to see some of our card makers' favorite color combos. It looks like a traditional fall palette is a crowd favorite.
We were wondering what would be a good first challenge for this new year... and then it hit me smack dab in the face. I don't think there's been a day that's gone by in the last month when there hasn't been at least one football or basketball game on our television. Yep, I married a coach. LOL
So, our first 2026 challenge is Sports-Themed Cards 4 Kids. You can go with the standard media favorites, like football, basketball, baseball, soccer, golf or hockey. Or you could go with sports that receive less media attention, like volleyball, bowling, or ice fishing. Maybe make a card for a sport that holds a special place in the heart of a daughter, granddaughter, son, or grandson.
While we are focusing on Sports-Themed Cards 4 for our kids this month, any kiddie-appropriate card can be linked up for this month's challenge and you have until Friday, February 6 to share your work of heart. While you aren't required to donate your linked-up card to SAS4Kids, one of our hospitalized patients surely would love it if you did. Card submission information can be found by clicking on the tabs at the top of this page.
A quick reminder that the deadline for Valentine's Day cards is January 15. Please reach out to your favorite shipper(s) if you have cards that aren't going to arrive by the 15th.
As always, thanks soooo much for your support of SAS4Kids. Here's to a great year of card making and crafty creativity!
