Send a Smile 4 Kids October Challenge

 

The theme for the October Challenge at

Send a Smile 4 Kids 

is

Food.

 

I'm not terribly fond of ants, and I definitely would not share a perfectly good cherry pie with them, but I do like the ants on this set of stamps from Craft Lounge and the ant brads from Eyelet Outlet. 

The simple card below uses a 

CTMH  Picture My Life card.

 

Please take some time and visit the fabulous blogs of my teammates.  

They work so hard and are very creative!

Send a Smile 4 Kids September Challenge

 

The theme for the September Challenge at

is

Fall/Halloween Cards 4 Kids

I changed up this digi image of a Minion ready to go golfing.  To give him a Halloween look I switched his golf cap for a witch's hat, and his golf club with a broom, added a confetti black cat, 3 bats, 3 die cut pumpkins, and dressed him in Halloween colors.

 

The card below is a digi image which I simply colored and added to 4 layers of Halloween paper.
 

 I was lucky enough to squeeze these two cards into the box I just sent off to Jen Reece, one of the volunteers who helps distribute the cards to children who are patients in Children's Hospitals.  Jen, you are definitely appreciated!

Time to start a new box!

Send a Smile 4 Kids - July Challenge

  

The theme for the July Challenge at

is

Christmas in July for Kids

  

(Anything Goes for kids is always acceptable, too.)

 

 Here are 3 cards I added to my SAS4Kids box.

 

All the images were sent to me by a friend, who loves cats.

I used markers to color them and added a few die cuts here and there.

The first one reminds me I have sheets in the dryer.  I am vertically challenged which is not a good thing when making a king size bed. 

Thanks so much for stopping by.

Send a Smile 4 Kids June Challenge

 

The theme for the June Challenge at

Summer Fun

  

(Anything Goes for kids is always acceptable, too.)

 

 I searched through my digi images and found several that worked for this challenge, baseball, relaxing in the water, and camping.  I used 2 precolored images and also did some coloring and fussy cutting.

The paper scraps were used on the cards shown below.

All of these cards will be in the next box I send to SAS4Kids.

 

 

 

 It would be great if you joined the fun at the

Send a Smile 4 Kids May Challenge

 

The theme for the May Challenge at

Send a Smile 4 Kids 

is

Planes, Trains and Automobiles

  

(Anything Goes for kids is always acceptable, too.)

 

This is my first post for SAS4Kids in a long time.

And I came across some old stickers in my stash that will fit this theme nicely.

First I made a Father's Day card with an automobile on it.

 

Then I printed an old digi stamp with a train on it, again making a Father's Day card. 

 

 Finally, I used the airplane on the sticker sheet. 

 

My grandson, a junior at Messiah University, will be flying to Anchorage, Alaska for the summer to play in the Alaska Collegiate Baseball League on a team sponsored by AIA.  It's also the time of year when graduates all over embark on new adventures.  I made this card with Nick in mind.

 

 

 

It would be great if you joined the fun at the

May Challenge.
