Christmas Santa

This is one of my favourite Santa images, love how he is getting ready.  Called Sweet Santa you can find him at Stitchy Bear Digital Outlet.

I have coloured him with alcohol markers, added some red bling for buttons, lots of silver glitter on his coat,  pearl glitter to his beard and hair and glossy accents to shine up those boots.

The sentiment is very similar to one I saw on a Christmas card some years ago, and always thought it would be a good sentiment on one of my cards, as my name is Carol.  Layered on 3 different papers,with 2 ribbon bows.  The inside has more coloured paper and the words to a Christmas song.

Carol, can you hear me laughing out loud? This is a great image and Santa is obviously enjoying preening himself for his "date at Carol's tonight" ..... the alcohol in your markers appears to have lifted any of Santa's inhibitions. Seriopusly though, this is a terrific Christmas card into which you have put so much thought and work. Good luck in our challenge. Ingrid (OSAAT Team)
