oh santa, baby…
Posted in amsterdam, pia's photos December 20th, 2008 by piablog

I may be a little addicted to polardroid. as are each of you by the sounds of it! and anyway, how could i resist posting this one to get us all in the festive mood?! This is a costume shop here in Amsterdam, and I just adore their festive window display!

Also I’ll take this opp to answer your questions in the previous post’s comments:

1. The text that I add is handwritten by me with my pen tablet (like I draw harriet and doodles) – I write on the image in photoshop (if you don’t have a pen tablet you can always write on it in a text font – it would look great too!).

2. the guy who created this lovely piece of equipment wanted to mimic the real polaroid as much as possible so he purposely added the effect of the ‘cartridge’ running out after taking 10 shots – a notice will come up on your screen that says something like “the cartridge has run out, please quit and relaunch” – so all you have to do is quit the poladroid and then click on the poladroid icon in your dock et voilĂ , it pops up again and you can poladroid away. cool huh?

3. I’m going to check out all your fab poladroids soon! I can’t wait!

……………………………………………………

Now I have to get cracking on some super fab posts for you all… today is my last day to post for the next coming days – can you guess why??

    I love it! My last name was Gerritsen before I got married!! It looks like a great costume shop:) I am heading over to Amsterdam in May – I will have to get a photo in front of the shop! Have a lovely Christmas!

    Seeing my hometown, makes me teary eyed on a lazy morning in snowy Seattle, I guess there is no place like home.
