Peaceful Stag

Photo Details

Poster: ScrappinCEO

Julz gave us the challenge to get down and sooty! I'd never done this technique with glossy CS. I have done it with glue on a brown paper bag (Remember Aleen's brown paper sack art?)

It should be perfect for a guy... no frills allowed. I thought the sooty look would be perfect for a 'hunting' kind of theme.

Love the deer. Wonder if he smells smoke?? Thanks for the tip on the glue and brown paper bag. I'll have to check that out!
