SAS4Kids: March Marvels

Hi, everyone! Happy Saturday! Hope your weekend is off to a fabulous start.

A big shoutout to all of you who accepted last month's challenge to make a boy/guy card. Our shippers love receiving guy cards from our cardmakers. So, it was great seeing guy things... things like a trio of cute monsters, some colorful basketballs, and a pup in a wagon in our March gallery. Even Spiderman made an appearance! Here are three cards that caught the eyes of our designers. Thanks so much to all who played along!


1. Deanne

Deanne's simple design was a great way to feature these lil monsters.
And we adored those fun facial expressions. Such fun!


7. Valerie

Likewise, Valerie's design and color choices were perfect for her card.
Her Superman appears to be leaping right at us. How incredibly cool! 


10. Maria Giselle

Maria Giselle's wowed us with her stitched sentiment. 
Then, she masked out a carrot and painstakingly replaced a present.
Kids will love these attentions to detail. Love them!

SAS4Kids: February Favorites!

Hi, everyone! Happy Weekend! 

Spring/Easter cards are always so fun to make, aren't they?! They always offer a perfect opportunity to ink up baby animal stamps and use pretty pastel-colored papers. Here are three Spring/Easter cards that caught the eyes of our DT.  


2. Arlene R

We just loved Arlene's CAS design... and chocolate bunny...
and fun, fun sentiment. What a cute card!


3. Donna W

Donna's sweet duckling and pretty colors make for a happy, happy card!
I'm going to have to remember this strategy for using up dp scraps.  :)


7. Trina

Not only does Trina's shaped card feature a baby animal and pastel colors,
it also showcases her amazing phantasmic coloring skills. Truly phantasmic!
