                  THANK YOU to all who got into the #CraftyXmas spirit and entered our Crafty Christmas card competition this year, in partnership with Cass Art! 

                  We have been blown away by your fantastic festive fancies! You've used sequins, linocuts, wool, good old graphite and anything else you can get your crafty mits on. We received your crafty creations by the sleigh load! After much deliberation our 4 winners were selected from over 160 fantastic designs. These are all featured in our video below...

                  But we had to make a decision and without further ado and after much deliberation, we are delighted to reveal the winners and runners up of this year's Crafty Christmas card competition! 

                  A HUGE congratulations to the 2016 CraftyXmas Competition winners! 

                  In the under 18s (kid) category: Ketan Sorafan (winner) and Darcey Woods (runner up) delighted with the energy, colour and confident command of their chosen mediums: Paint and collage. In the Big Kid category (over 18s): Amy Gallagher's 'Santa Segway' was awarded the winning prize for truly embracing her inner Big Kid! We loved the light-hearted design, it made us all smile uncontrollably. Pauline Hall's beautiful Polar Bear design was awarded the runner up prize in this category for its energy, beautiful use of colour and infectious cuteness!
