Despite my quite negative approach to the festive season and the ties with it, I had a great idea of minimizing my spendings by taking photos, printing them and putting them in frames.
From this I started to draw some characters based around this part of the year, such as blokes in fuzzy hats, reindeer, snowman, and santas. I settled on reindeer and made cardboard cut outs of them and drew them with a fat marker.
Here is a quick guide to my creations, and my creation station.
First I used a discarded dishwasher tablet box as the cards
foundations then used parcel paper as a cover.
I then used a scalpel and some leather as an improvised
cutting mat. I glued and folded the card with an edge
of a knife as to make sure the bend in the card stayed put.
I then glued another rectangle of coloured paper as the
lining for the card, and then selected one of my
reindeer pictures that best suited the reciever.
ANYWAY, heres some of what I did make earlier. (that was confusing was'nt it?)
