There is now only one week remaining to enter the Xmas Food Photography Competition which closes for entries Thursday 19th November.
Here in the U.K the shops are now jam packed with Xmas goodies, and a week fails to go by without us spotting another delicious recipe we all want to make and bring in to test out on the Tigerprint studio!
So don't delay get in the kitchen and get snapping some great Xmas images - good luck!
Some of you may of noticed recently that Tigerprint have a Flickr account. At the moment we are trialing it and have been popping the Xmas Food Photography Competition entries over on there. If you would like to take a look and please feel free to leave us comments.
Thanks!
The next competition has just been launched, Xmas Food Photography so for the next month we will be drooling all over the images we receive. How exciting, check it out here and enjoy!

The judges were really excited about this competition (there all women) and loved looking through all the great entries we had. There can only be one winner though and the honour goes to Jean with her entry above.
The judges felt that Jean demonstrated a fab and beautiful illustration style that we do not currently have in the Tigeprint studio. They felt it fit the brief perfectly as it is stylish and simple yet striking. Well done Jean!
The runners up are below in no particular order:
By Dot to Dottie http://dottodottie.blogspot.com
This entry is very girlie and pretty which answers the brief very well. The birdcages are also very ' on trend' - well done.
By Bess www.beebdesign.co.uk
This entry by Bess demonstrated excellent editorial which answered the brief well and is perfectly directed to the M&S customer.
By Love little www.lovelittle.co.uk
This entry is a very well thought out product and Love Little has paid great attention to detail in her design. A very cool design.
By Elizabeth http://elizabethryman.blogspot.com/
This entry demonstrated a lovely balance of colour with great editorial and typography. Very stylish!
Well done to our winner Jean and all of our winners up and a huge thank you to everyone who took the time to enter. The next competition will be launched today, Christmas Food Photography so keep an eye out for the brief on the competition page.
By Jo
The judges really enjoyed this competition especially as its such a popular trend at the moment. Alas there can only be one winner and our congratulations go to the entry above by Jo that was selected because of its lovely illustrative style and nice composition. The judges felt that this design could be translated into a variety of products and different scenarios.
Well done Jo!
In addition the judges selected the runners up below in no particular order:
A very quirky and on trend way of representing the english breakfast! Would look great in a variety of food scenes - well done!
What a great idea! Unfortunately we would not be able to use the queens head in such a way due to licensing. However perhaps this idea could be explored more using other materials to collage.
Really nice use of text to create the crown. An interesting composition of putting modern icons/celebrities next to influential people in history.
A really nice use of print on kraft and a great use of colour which represents the 'Best of British' in a pattern led way.
Congratulations everyone and a huge thank you to everyone who entered and we hope you enjoyed it. Don't forget to check out the latest competition, Contemporary Notebook.
Today is the last day for entries and you have until midnight GMT to get your entries in for the Best of British to Vic vlem2@hallmark-uk.com.
Its great to see everyones entries and interpretation of Britain and there seems to be a strong trend of tea and cakes which is never a bad thing!
We have just launched the latest competition, Contemporary Handbag Notebook which you can check out here.
Thank you to all our entrants so far and good luck. Be sure to check back in a few days for the winner and runners up!
There is now only one week remaining to enter the Best of British Competition. Things are looking 'splendid' over in the gallery with tea, cakes and all things British galore. Hope your enjoying this one and look out next week when we launch the next competition.
Deadline for Best of British = Midnight GMT Thursday 24th September 2009
By Hilbooboo
The judges selected the entry above as the winner for the recent Children's Puzzle Illustration competition which is by HIlbooboo.
The eco design was selected because of its lovely modern style and clever use of 'wood' background - we could actually make a puzzle like this in wood.
This puzzle is very commercial and filled the brief well and would be a great introduction for children to the topic of the eco system.
Well done Hilbooboo.
The judges also selected the entry below by Violotus as a runner up.
By Violotus
This entry demonstrated a fantastic new illustrative style and again covered a difficult theme well. We would really love to see other themes in this style- well done!
The judges would like to thank everyone for entering the competition and have taken the contact details of several entrants with the scope of contacting them for freelance work at a later date.
Don't forget to enter the latest competition Best of British - we look forward to receiving your entries!
