After the announcement Caroline commented:
"This year's decision was so difficult due to the amount of brilliant designs I received. It it was fantastic to meet my so many of the artists that took part in this year's Christmas card competition – they are all extremely talented with artistic skills, imagination and creativity.
With the talent that they are already showing at such young ages I am sure that there are great things in store for these budding artists and I look forward to receiving their entries next year!"
