Make someone smile or..... SFTW challenge

Hello to you all.
This week we have a challenge over at Stampin For The Weekend, and we want you to make a card for someone to make them smile or cheer them up.

We have a fab sponsor for this challenge Wiff of Joy

WOJ are kindly donating the 2 stamps below from the 'Happy Mail' collection

PLUS... the winner will be able to choose a THIRD stamp of THEIR CHOICE from ANY of the collections! (subject to being in stock obviously).

What a fabulous prize!!

This challenge has a second part, and this is optionel, it is difficult for me to explain this, so I just copy what Kate said about this part.

Now there is a second part to this challenge and it’s one that I really hope you’d all like to take part in, though just to clarify, this second part is optional. We’d like to see you send your card/project to one of the children featured on the Post Pals website. Even better, make your card specifically with that child in mind.

Please log on to http://www.postpals.co.uk/ and have a look around the site.

Post Pals is an organisation that was set up to create smiles for children who suffer from life threatening and long term illnesses. We ask people to log on to send the children featured on the website ‘happy post’. When a child is very ill, often a visit from the postman can make their day. A cheery card or letter can make them feel less alone and bring welcome distraction from what they go through each day. To see the difference happy post can make, please watch THIS great video that was recently featured on the BBC3 TV show Russell Howard’s Good News. It can also be found on the Latest News page.

To send your card/project card to a Pal and brighten their day, please follow the 5 easy steps on the home page. We ask that you choose a Pal on the website and make a card for them. Please post a photo to your blog of the card and say which pal it’s for then link us to it. Here is the most important bit though… please then post the card to the address on your chosen child’s page. Please also remember to fill out the stats page (link to this is on the 5 easy steps) so we can see the card has been sent. We hope this challenge will raise more awareness of Post Pals and increase the amount of cards that are sent to the children to brighten their days.

So here are my card for this callenge. I made mine for Layrun A

There has been a DT call from SFTW, and we have two new to the teamies, and they will join us for the next 6 months and their 1th entry will be in June.. And you can visit their blogs Annika and Joanne.

"We will also be joined by two Guest Designers for June. Victoria and Heidi. Now Heidi is only 12 going on 13 yrs old...we were so impressed with her work that we asked her to join us. Victoria is the owner of the fabulous ABC Challenge and has always supported the SFTW Challenges ...and again we are thrilled to have such talent with us for the next two challenges."

Well, I think I have said all that is new now on Stampin For The Weekend, so head over and see what the rest of the team has made for this Challenge.
