December trees in October

I've been asked to deliver an arty workshop for around 25 people attending a project evaluation day at Cartwright Hall, Bradford in December.

There's only one and a half hours to complete the task so it has to be something simple and straightforward.

The project is connected with the natural environment and the people will spend time viewing the botanical garden around Cartwright.

The magnificent mature trees are a dominant feature of the grounds and I wanted to focus on these if possible.

So I've designed this small book, made from 3 pieces of A3 card with a black jute closure.  The structure is a very basic flag book and is easily adaptable in terms of colour for any season of the year.

I doubt if it will actually be snowing at the start of December but you never know...
