The life sized David Cameron in my living room is doing my head in. The cut out i made for an election night party is constantly striding towards me with a cheery grin, and is freaky in your peripheral vision. This morning I hid him in a cupboard – also to protect him from some Labour-ish friends that are coming around.
The life size cardboard cut I made with www.mycutouts.co.uk is eerily good. Ready-made I could only find a life size cardboard cut out of Gordon Brown, so for David Cameron I had to use my awful photoshop skills on a freely available image from the Conservative party’s Flickr stream and send it off to Mycutouts. Delighted with the Cameron cut out, I’ve just sent off Nick Clegg having found a pic of him on the Lib Dem Flickr stream and photoshopped it. Then we’ll have a full set – I’m not doing Griffin.
If you are having a local election night party you can get anyone done through this service – you just need a decent sized image. Here are the photoshopped versions of Cameron and Clegg I sent off. I can’t vouch for the Clegg one yet – haven’t had it back – but the Cameron one turned out nicely.
