Christmas Card Winners 2024
It’s that time of year again… the MKM Christmas Card Competition is back!
Now in its fourth consecutive year, the festive favourite from MKM Building Supplies (MKM) is inviting young artists from across the UK to get creative. The winning design will be printed on thousands of MKM’s official Christmas cards – sent to customers all over the country.
Rachel Constable, Head of ESG at MKM, said:
“Our Christmas Card Competition is such a joy to run. Every year, the talent and imagination of the entries blows us away. From paint and glitter to digital masterpieces. It’s a brilliant opportunity for young people to show off their creativity, and we can’t wait to see what comes in for 2025.”
