The Purple Mash Festive Card Competition gave children the chance to design the official 2Simple festive card on any festive theme they wanted. In less than 3 weeks we received over 10,000 entries from schools worldwide across three age groups plus a new staff group. Thank you to everyone who took part. There was so much variety and talent on show and we really enjoyed reviewing your designs.
The competition allowed children across the world to submit their designs summarising what the festive period meant to them using the award-winning platform, Purple Mash by 2Simple. Children could enter one of three categories: Under 5s, under 8s and under 12s. A new category for school staff was added this year as well.
Our elves carefully reviewed each entry and drew up a shortlist of finalists from each age group, whittling the thousands of entries down to a handful of outstanding contributions. And now, from those shortlists they have selected the winners, who each receive 50 professionally printed copies of their card designs, a £20 voucher and a goody bag!
Runners up were also chosen, and you can see their designs in the below video:
Not only has each winner won printed copies of their card, but we've transformed their designs into an e-card so everyone can share their creations far and wide, spreading the joy as they go. You can access the cards within the Festive Card area, where you can also use one of three different templates to create your own cards from scratch.
Children can easily create their own eCards from their Festive Card Competition entry. Use 'Blank Card Design 1' and upload the saved Festive Card image onto the front of the card.
