kindle a flame at Christmas!

Over the summer, we invited young people and children to design a Christmas card to commemorate our 30th anniversary. We are delighted to announce not one but two winners – a testimony to the quality of entries we received.

Holy homeless familyOne of our winners is a beautiful watercolour design by Eltje Mueller-Stewart, aged 13, from Newcastle-upon-Tyne. The judging panel really liked the idea of the homeless/holy family set in the modern-day context of a shop doorway, contrasting the human cost of poverty with the price of a pair of shoes – congratulations, Eltje!

 

Hope Christmas cardOur other winner is a stunning mixed-media collage design by Yvonne McCrudden, aged 13, from Darwen, Lancashire. The judges really liked the simple message bringing hope and the use of a nativity scene in silhouette contrasted with the blaze of colour in the star – congratulations, Yvonne!

Many thanks to all those who put in time and creative effort in sending in their entries – we were very impressed with the standard of artwork and the careful thought that had gone into all your designs.
