Tigerprinters at YSP

Today we are lucky enough to be spending the day at the Yorkshire Sculpture Park for our annual creative away day. It's a fantastic day for us to check out the great exhibitions currently on including Donna Wilson and we also get to find out all about the fun projects we've worked on this past year.

Myself and Laura will be filling in the Tigerprinters on all the wonderful competition entries we've had this past year.

Have a great weekend and were back next week for the final count down to Christmas :-)

Christmas Crafts

I've been trying my hand at a few Christmas crafts this year - I'm very inspired by Kirstie Allsopp.

I thought I'd share a few pics of the process but feel free to share your own or links to your latest projects etc either at vlem2@hallmark-uk.com or our Facebook page and we will pop them up here!

Christmas at Macy's

Visit Macy's website to get you into the festive spirit & write a letter to Santa whilst you are there. The Department store has created an interactive interface for its Christmas audience, great for kids or the big kids in all you adults.

Make it a cracker!

The Make it a cracker competition closed for entries last week and the judges spent this morning carefully looking through all your entries.

 

They have come to the conclusion that although there were entries that demonstrated good use of Christmas humour that unfortunately at this stage no one entry provides us with new and original content to include in our crackers for Marks & Spencer stores.

 

However with Christmas just around the corner we would like to keep the brief open for submissions should anyone want to submit any alternative ideas so please feel free to email these in your own time Tigerprintcompetition@hallmark-uk.com

 Because it's Christmas and we'd hate to make anyone sad we will be putting all entrants names in a hat and selecting one name to receive a Tigerprint goody bag.

A very big thank you to everyone who took the time and effort to enter the competition. There were some good ideas such as the Christmas fun facts and conversation starters.

We do hope you will consider our latest competitions:

Christmas Surface Pattern - Deadline 31st December 2011

Gift Packaging - Deadline 26th January 2012

What is love? - Deadline 5th January 2012

Make it a cracker!

Today is the last day to submit your Christmas cracker jokes and make the Tigerprint team have a good giggle.

Entries must be submitted by midnight and judging will take place next week with live updates shown on here and our Facebook page.

Don't forget to check out our other competitions this month:

Christmas surface pattern design - Deadline Saturday 31st December

Gift packaging - Deadline Thursday 26th January 2012

Thank you and good luck to everyone who has entered so far and have a great weekend :-)

I'm sure alot of you will share my love of all things Martha Stewart so imagine my jealousy when I heard she recently visited Hallmark headquarters over in Kansas City.

Martha has very kindly posted about her visit on her blog so if any of you ever wondered what the headquarters of Hallmark cards looks like then here is your chance.

 

Tigerprint Big Draw

Some of you may recall that I mentioned how Tigerprinters were taking part in our very own Big Draw back in October.

This morning saw us all head to the exhibition curated by the team to see over 1800 drawings we created during the event.

Simply amazing work created by everyone!
