Greetings from the Critique Club
Initial thoughts/My opinion
Nice tacky decoration but the way it is presented is not very interesting.
Content/Composition
The content itself is great and for sure tacky, but presenting it in front of a white background was not a good idea, especially because the bear has a white, lower portion. Hanging it into the Christmas tree or in front of a dark-green paperboard might have been way better. Also the angle of view is to straight: a little from the side so one sees the third dimension would been good here. Of course not too much, because it is necessary to be able to read the text.
To the bear itself: I wonder what these lines and speckles are, but it was probably not possible to get them away.
Camera work -technically
Exposure is a little dark on the bear, probably because the automatic metering had problems with the large amounts of white. It seems to me that the flash was used (reflections in the eyes and harsh shadows). A softer light would have been better here. Focus is fine.
Digital Processing - Technical
You could have adjusted the overall tint towards a warmer colour instead of the bluish one. Also for this angle of view a slight rotation is need to make the bear levelled.
Fits the challenge
Yes, very tacky!
Good luck for your further submissions

| The white background washes out the composition a little. Very tacky, though! |

| like the buttons, adds a bit more tackiness to it all. Lighting is a bit on the dull side as well. 7 |
