Guidelines for the card design

• The recommended card size is half of A4 size (148mm x 210mm).

 Use white or coloured paper which are thicker in quality.

 Providing matching sized envelopes are encouraged.

 Feel free to draw something that will brighten, cheer up and encourage the recipient.

 You may design cards in English, Malay or Mandarin

 You are free to use any materials based on your own creativity, such colour pencils, water colour, oil pastel.

 Sign your name on the back of the card so that the recipient may know who is the creator of the cards.

 MAPPAC will stamp on each card to show that it is a MAPPAC initiative.
