This is a terrific Saturday! But a MORE terrific cause, I need to share with all of my friends and family! I was asked to Guest Design for a challenge that reached out and grabbed my heart! I've always admired the generous people that devote time to causes like this one; bringing smiles and helping people through very difficult or painful times in their lives!
My new friend Karen is running Send a Smile 4 Kids challenge blog that also allows us, the crafters of the world, to send our creations on to people of all ages that have one thing in common; the need of a smile.. This donation site has some easy rules to follow and at certain times of the year, they are looking for specific types of cards. However, I am certain that no matter what card is forwarded on to them, it will not be returned! So, if you can, send a card on or Spread the word and post the banner on your blogs! This will warm your heart as well as the hearts of all of the recipients!

People who laugh actually live longer than those who don't laugh. Few persons realize that health actually varies according to the amount of laughter.
