[QUOTE="dtownley1, post: 283928, member: 20564"] Last year's one looks great. The photos work well, as do the snowflakes - monotone images don't always work so well though - they're a tough thing to work with. One of the best things to do is find a design style that you can rework with a christmas theme. For example, bubble and ink splatter styles are fairly common in design these days, so mixing that in with christmas colours and images could be effective. The problem is that photos can quickly become cheesy, so make sure you're working with the best photos you have at hand - this will make the finished look much more polished. One thing I often do when in need of inspiration in my designs, is go to a newsagents and flick through the design magazines there. They often showcase a wide range of artists, and this can be a great help at times. [/QUOTE]
