Yes, it is the first Saturday of a new month. Around these parts, first Saturdays mean it's time for a new kiddie card challenge. But before we get to this month's theme and DT cards, we have a bit of bittersweet news to share here at SAS4Kids. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">This challenge marks <b>Karen Hasheck's</b> last as a Design Team Member... and boy, oh boy, are we ever going to miss her. Jen and I fondly have referred to Karen as our fearless leader. For a decade or more, Karen single-handedly coordinated all things SAS4Kids. Moreover, she orchestrated the transition when Jen and I took over SAS4Kids operations. While we are sad for us, we are thrilled for Karen knowing she will have even more time for teaching her wonderful card classes and enjoying those amazing grandkids' visits. If you have a moment, please stop by <a href="https://karenskreativekards.blogspot.com/"><b>Karen's Kreative Kards</b></a> and thank her for all she's done to bring big smiles to faces of in-patient little ones. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Now, without further ado, this month's theme is Winter Cards 4 Kids. Something tells me we have a few snowpeople and a few cute critters in our future. :)</span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

We send greetings to all for a happy Labor Day weekend. Moreover, we send our thoughts to all those affected by Hurricane Idalia.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Around here September means it's time to ink up some jack-o-lanterns and cut out some autumn-colored leaves. Yep, it's time to make some cute fall/Halloween cards to send to our SAS4Kids shippers. Our shippers are looking for cute, fun, whimsical fall/Halloween-themed cards that loved ones and hospital staff can give to the kids. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><span> </span><span style="font-size: medium;">Upcoming deadlines:</span><br /></span><span style="font-family: arial;"><span> </span><b>Cute Fall/Halloween - October 5</b><br /></span><span style="font-family: arial;"><span> </span>Thanksgiving - November 5<br /></span><span style="font-family: arial;"><span> </span>Christmas/Winter Cards - December 5</span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">This month, we have <b><u>two</u></b> SAS4Kids cardmakers joining us as Guest Designers.

Happy June! Yes, June. Not quite sure how that's happened, but apparently it's time for flip flops, t-shirts, shorts... and our June challenge! </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">The period from January through June is a whirlwind of activity in these parts. Right now, our shippers are recovering from a busy stretch of sending out boxes and boxes of cards... jumping from Valentines to bunnies to flowers (for moms) to guy-things (for dads). Thank you so much, shippers! You are truly our unsung heroes! </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Our DT is taking advantage of this lull in the action to focus on our tween/teen patients. When I was shipping for Nationwide Children's, I was always excited to receive cards for our older patients. So, without further ado, let's see what our gals have created for our tweens and teens.</span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

As Mother's Day weekend approaches, we extend Mother's Day greetings to everyone who has loved or been loved by a child. If this holiday is a rough one, please give yourself permission to be gentle with yourself this next week.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">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. <b>Please note that the deadline for getting Father's Day cards to our shippers is May 15.</b> If you have any questions about mailing out your cards, please double check with your shipper. (And, this is the perfect time to send those summer-themed cards out, too.)</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">We are thrilled to have Andrea join as this month as a Guest Designer. Andrea, who shares her adventures in cardmaking at <a href="https://andreaspaperantics.blogspot.com/ ">Andrea's Paper Antics</a>, is a good friend to us here at Send a Smile 4 Kids... and her kiddie cards are always so darn cute!

Happy Weekend! We hope you all are doing well after recent weather events. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">A huge heartfelt thanks to everyone who made spring/Easter cards this year for our in-patient kids. With Easter just a few weeks away, our shippers are busy packing up their hospitals' spring/Easter boxes. (Please note: Our deadline for sending in Easter cards has passed. So please contact your shipper(s) ASAP if you have Easter cards you were planning on dropping in the mail. Thank you!)</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Spring/Easter cards can be so cute, so fun, and so colorful. Here are three cards from last month's gallery that caught the eyes of our designers.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b><a href="https://andreaspaperantics.blogspot.com/2023/02/hope-your-day-blooms-with-happiness.html">8.
