I am a fan of the Imagenarium/Mischief Circus website shop, where I get some interesting elements for my collage work. This week, they came up with a package that included this cute bearded man with a fluffy hat. I decided he would be my ideal Santa Claus and made this collage especially "for him". Thanks to designer ItkuPilli (Kirsi Iggy Rouvinen) for the image, he is really gorgeous! I used a bit of a Nordic scenery here, with a background that could be either day or night, a shower of golden stars and snowflakes, as well as a blend of different papers to achieve the effects. Polar bear cubs complete the cute-weird atmosphere, and are the perfect companion to the Man. My gratitude too to the Holliewood Studios for the bear at the right hand-side, he is adorable , and Teddi Rutschman/Foxeysquirrel for the castle in the background as well as Hollie Haradon/Holliewood Studios for the little cub at the right!
