Another Photo Art Friday entry, this time featuring my favourite big reindeer! He’s really soft and cuddly and is one of a number of reindeer that I have collected over the years. I really adore toy reindeer – no idea why! I used to get a new reindeer every year till I realised that we’d soon run out of space for them, so I haven’t bought a new one this year (yet!!).
He’s sitting on my printer at the moment, smiling benevolently at me as I type… Well, I like to think so anyway! I used intensify, vintage wine label and holey grunge, adjusting blending modes to keep him soft and fluffy-looking. The font is Ace Crikey and I wish all the PAF participants a very Happy Holiday Season, whatever their beliefs.
See you all again in January 2012! 🙂

/ December 10, 2011you collect raindeers? That´s nice. I hope you have then in a glass shelf (for lack of a better word) so they don´t get spoiled by dust. 🙂

/ December 11, 2011Thanks for the greetings and best wishes for a beautiful holiday season with loved ones for you, too; enjoyed your reindeer; since I am from Alaska, I first thought it was a moose. Smiles. Nice texture rendering. Karen (visiting from PAF)

/ December 12, 2011What a cutie – I actually first thought it was a moose, and I LOVE moose. We (our entire family) kind of collects moose… they sit on our beds, chairs, corners, wherever there’s space. Love how you processed the photo.
