Youngsters got creative in a craft competition – which marked a shopping centre’s special birthday.
Springfields Outlet Shopping and Leisure in Spalding, celebrated the area’s young talent, after launching a ‘Design a Card’ competition.
As part of the popular chocolate trail event, which took place over Easter, children were asked to create and design a birthday card to mark 20 years of business.
