We have chosen a winning entry for the Blue Sky Fostering Welcome Card Competition! The winner receives a £25 Amazon voucher as well as £25 to donate to a charity of their choice.
The Welcome Card Competition asked young people to design a card that would welcome new staff, foster carers and young people to Blue Sky Fostering.
It's a joy to share these beautiful entries. Each one shows a lot of thought and effort. Every young person and child that submitted an entry should feel very proud of their card designs!

Foster carers love pets - and so do children! The combination of friendly cat, tinsel and balloons creates such a happy card, sure to make anyone feel welcome!
Behold this absolutely stunning and very welcoming scene of colourful flowers and hearts in the sky!
Isn't this absolutely lovely?
'Don't be frightened, you're going to be ok. Don't be scared. Hi, welcome to the Blue Sky family. You are strong. Don't look back, you're not going that way.'
This is so beautifully drawn. Those cakes certainly look welcoming, and the open door just beckons you in!
This card has a sibling in the group! This is such a lovely combination of words and colour.
'It's okay to have bad days and feel sad, or frightened.
Be kind to yourself.
Don't be scared.
Welcome to Blue Sky.
Don't be worried.
Don't be nervous.'
This looks like a great day on the beach, completed by a smiley face with heart eyes! It looks like a very fun place indeed!
This is such a creative and joyful card with so many details: the delighted man; the smiley letter/face dreaming of being in bed; the sun and moon; the welcoming bear... it shows great imagination and is certainly welcoming. Congratulations to the winner!
The winner has chosen Chestnut Tree House, 'because they look after children and their families', as the charity they would like to donate their £25 to. And they can also enjoy their own £25 Amazon voucher!
It feels like Christmas has arrived when we start our Christmas card competition. Behold the spirit of Christmas, captured beautifully in these eight cards from our young people!
