Join us for fun challenges on the first Saturday of each month! To find out about donating your handmade cards to Send A Smile 4 Kids, please read our guidelines and current needs pages.
Hello, everyone! Happy weekend!
If you have stopped by to see featured cards from last month's gallery, we are changing things up a bit. Each month, we will be selecting at random at least one participant to join us as a guest designer for an upcoming challenge. If you linked up a card in February, please check your blog post's comments.
We'll be back on April 5 with a new challenge. In the meantime, happy crafting!
Hello, everyone! Happy March!
It's the first Saturday of a new month. So, it's time for a new challenge here at Send a Smile 4 Kids. This month, our theme is Animal Cards 4 Kids. And, since our spring/Easter deadline is right around the corner, you are going to be seeing baby animals on our DT's cards. Nothing says spring like baby bunnies, ducklings, and chicks.
You have until Friday, April 4 to play along with us this month. Even though our theme this month is animal cards, you are always welcome to link up any kid-friendly card. Of course you are not required to donate your linked-up card to SAS4Kids, but a hospitalized child would surely love it if you did. And, we're changing things up a bit this month. We are going to randomly choose one card and invite that card's designer to join us a Guest Designer for an upcoming challenge.
Upcoming holiday deadlines are listed below.
Hi, everyone! Welcome back!
Our heartfelt thanks to everyone who played along with last month's "Make New Friends..." Challenge. And, special thanks to all those who sent winter and Valentine's Day cards to their favorite shippers. I know how tough it can be to get back to make cards so soon after the hustle and bustle of the holiday season. We soooo appreciate all of our wonderful card makers who did just that. You all are the best!
The cards in our January Gallery were so sweet. Here are three that caught our eyes.

| How fun that Arlene had a Girl Scout stamp in her stash! Her card couldn't be more on point with our theme... or any cuter. Great job, Arlene! |
 |
| Talk about beautiful! Chris's card features a beautifully colored lass... against a beautifully inked background... and conveys such a beautiful sentiment. |
 |
| And talk about cool! Jaydee cleverly heat-embossed her sled-loving Yeti in silver. Her sentiment is perfect for creating a card that can be used for a variety of situations. |
