Anthea McConachy adds a splash of colour to the season on page 74, with a set of modern and funky festive cards in bright, alternative colours, and Judith Hannington has fun with felt on page 24, hand-crafting her own beautiful designs from this versatile medium.

Meanwhile, Karelyn Joy takes on our budget challenge on page 70, demonstrating how stunning cards can be created with just a few sheets of paper at a fraction of the cost.
