Just A Note #4: Lions Club International Peace Poster Cards

  Artist:   Nita Leger Casey

This is installment #4 of Oregon Gifts of Comfort and Joy's weekly art feature.  My MIL gave me a bunch of greeting cards, and I decided to scan them, add a frame then and link them up to the artists websites.  Hope that they bring you a bit of joy today!   

This week's featured artists are some of the children who have created the Lions International Peace Poster Contests between 1991 and 2004.  Over 350,000 children submit their artwork annually for the chance to have their artwork chosen.  These cards are used as a fundraiser from Lions Club International.












I am linking this post to Pamela Kuhn's "A Sheltering Tree" weekly blog hop, Share the Shelter.   When you are all through here at Oregon Gifts, please hop on over there to see some lovely and inspirational posts.

The talent of those kids is amazing. But the best has to be that candle of flags. How creative is that!

Are you looking for info about Tyler Matthews?

Check this stuff out below:

The 2012 Army All-American Day Event

2012 Army All American Game Video


Photo Source: Nike "The Opening Brochure" Pages 2 and 3
During the week of July 5-9, 2011, Cary and I were privileged to attend "The Opening", watching quarterback grandson Tyler Matthews (#43 the first day, and #15 on game days) play with 150 of the best high school football players in the United States. The event was held at Nike World Headquarters in Beaverton, Oregon. I hope that you enjoy the pictures ... some are better photos than others, but I tried to capture as many kids as I could.

There are approximately 500 photos in these slide shows. They are of the players, the fans, our family and everybody/everything that caught my eye. They are in chronological order. No names are on the pictures, even if I do know who people were.

As time permits, I will also be writing blog posts about my experience as a spectator. Since I still have a lot to learn about football and this is not a sports blog, I'll write some human interest stories as seen through my eyes. That said, Tyler Matthews, YOU ROCK!!!!
