Student wins Paperchase Christmas card competition

Vicky Bedwell, a second year Graphic Design student from Canterbury College can now see her Christmas card design in all Paperchase stores up and down the country!

Vicky, 18, from Hythe, created such an eye catching design that when Paperchase bosses visited the College, they awarded Vicky with £100 worth of vouchers and agreed to print her design ready for this Christmas!

Graphic Design Tutor Barbara Jossi set the project brief with the intention of letting Paperchase bosses know that the students were designing Christmas Cards, little did she know that the bosses would be so keen to visit the College and work with the students to find a winning design. Vicky worked hard on the project brief and used silk screen printing and experimented with various materials and techniques to create her design.

Gemma Parris, Junior Buyer - Gift Packaging & Cards Paperchase: “Everyone at Paperchase was so pleased to be asked to take part in this live project.  The students really excelled in the competition and we were delighted with the Vicky’s winning design.  It was a pleasure to work with everyone at Canterbury College, both the staff and the students were highly professional. I’m sure this is the start of a fantastic working relationship.”
