Send a Smile 4 Kids - Christmas in July 4 Kids

Like most of the country, it has been very, very hot here the last few weeks.  I'm not complaining though!  This last winter was terrible.  It just wouldn't end!   So every time I start grumbling about being uncomfortable, I just think about that long winter and it sparks me back to appreciation.  And yes, we do have air conditioning in our house. : )   Not everyone does in Central Wisconsin.

As I was hiding out in my house trying to stay cool, I was working on the cards for this weeks S.A.S.4K.'s challenge - Christmas in July 4 Kids.

As with all the S.A.S.4K challenges, we have 3 amazing sponsors this week - here are this weeks sponsors.

1. Crackerbox Palace - is giving a $15 gift certificate to their amazing store.
2. Di's Digis - is giving a $10 voucher to their digi shop.
3. Clearly Digi Stamps (Clear Dollar Stamps) - is giving a $15 gift certificate to their store.

Thank you so much to those amazing sponsors!!

Here is my 1st card - this image and sentiment are from Crackerbox Palace.   Look at Santa rock out!!!  I love it! and I bet a sick kiddo in the hospital would too.

Here is my 2nd card. This adorable bunny slipper image is from Clearly Digi Images.  Now, bunny slippers may not say Christmas to most people, but it does to me.  I just love the cozy smells of Christmas and being home, opening presents in my favorite comfy pajamas and those bunny slippers fit right in that cozy scene.  I love days like that.

This sentiment is just something I typed up on my computer.

So, I bet the weather is hot where you are too, but pull out a fan and a glass of lemonade, find someplace almost cool to work and create some Christmas in July cards 4 kids.   Link those cards here on the S.A.S.4K.'s blog and you will be entered in a random drawing where you could win one of those amazing prizes from our sponsors.  S.A.S.4K's also picks a 'top 3' so 3 artists will be selected and honored for that.  Go here to see the full challenge rules.

Go here to see the Christmas cards 4 kids created by the rest of the S.A.S.4K.'s design team.  Wow!!! they've created some amazing cards to inspire you.

Don't forget, you can donate any cards to be given to kids who are in children's hospitals around the country.  Go here to see how you can do that.

Thanks so much for stopping by today. Stay cool and safe.

S.A.S.4K. - Anything Goes 4 Kids

It's Send A Smile 4 Kids (S.A.S.4K.) Saturday and this weeks challenge is Anything Goes 4 Kids.

Thank you to our amazing sponsors for this weeks challenge

• Fred She Said is awarding a $10.00 gift certificate
• Crackerbox Palace is giving a $15.00 gift certificate
• LOTV is giving a 10 pound gift certificate

Here's my first Anything Goes 4 Kids card.   This digi image is from Fred She Said.  

Here's my 2nd card - this image is from Crackerbox Palace.  

This grumpy fish just needed to be under water.   To create my underwater scene, I used a blister pack that I had saved from a product I had purchased.  I filled the bubble with some glitter and some micro beads.  

Here's a close up.  

Don't forget, this is a challenge, so that means you can play along. Create an Anything Goes 4 Kids card, link it to the S.A.S.4K challenge blog and you will be entered in a drawing for a chance to win one of those amazing prizes from our sponsors.  

I hope you take the time to play along.   

Thanks much
