SAS4Kids: December Darlings

Hi, everyone! Hope your new year is off to a great start.

A huge thank you to everyone who played along with last month's Winter Cards 4 Kids Challenge. Your December cards are always so darn cute, and last month our gallery was filled with so many fun winter cards! Here are three cards that caught our DT's eyes.


Elizabeth created a beautiful vintage winter scene, complete with sparkly 3-D snow.
Our designers loved way the light hit that old-time house. So pretty!

Trina did it again, creating AMAZING dimension through stamping and masking.
But, as Tina asked on her blog, is the mouse tangling up a frenemy... or untangling a friend?

Deanne also did it again, using her Cricut to create another adorable scene. Too cute!
We know there are kids with December birthdays who would love receiving a non-Christmasy card. 



Congratulations, ladies! Thanks for sharing your amazing talents with us. Be sure to grab our Top 3 badge to display on your blog.

Our current challenge runs until February 2. While we featured Love/Valentine Cards 4 Kids this month, any kiddie-appropriate card can be linked up for the challenge. 

While it is not required that you donate your card after entering, a hospitalized kiddie/tween/teen would surely appreciate it if you did. 
  • Monday was the date listed on our website as the deadline for sending Valentine cards to our shippers.
  • If you still have Valentine cards you would like to send to SAS4Kids, please touch base with your favorite shipper(s) ASAP. Thank you!
As always, thanks so much for your support of Send a Smile 4 Kids. Your cards 4 our kids always put huge smiles on little faces.

SAS4Kids: Love/Valentine Cards 4 Kids

Happy 2024! All of us at Send a Smile 4 Kids hope this new year rings in health and happiness... and lots of crafty fun. 

This month we are focusing on cards with love and Valentine themes that could be given to inpatient kids by their family members or hospital staffers. Believe it or not, the deadline to get Love/Valentine's Day cards to our shippers is January 15. Seriously, January 15! That's a mere week from Monday. Yikes! Looks like it's time to swap out candy canes for hearts and Santas for Cupids.  

You have until noon US/Eastern Time on Friday, February 2, to join us for our current challenge. While we are focusing on Love/Valentine cards this month, any kiddie-appropriate card can be linked up to play along. Please remember that only cards are considered for Saturday Shout-Out honors. 

It is not required that you send your card to one of our shippers, but an in-patient child/tween/teen would love it if you did. If you are running a little late in completing your SAS4Kids Valentine cards, please reach out to your shipper(s). .

As always, thank you for your support of SAS4Kids. We look forward to seeing your kiddie cards in our January gallery.
