Santa comes to town

christmas card ~ in progress
It's my turn this year, to create the Christmas card image, and husb will write the letter. This Santa was made by my father, many years ago, from crepe paper and cotton.

So far so good, but it needs more.

I wanted a background, and was thinking of the JOY of Christmas.

But once I looked at it, it seemed too....too. A little too childish.

Scanned it, and in photoshop, removed the background.

I kind of like this version. I'd color in one of the Santas with color pencil and sign my name. Still a work in progress, I'm thinking....

  1. I like the one with the polka dots. I don't think it is childish at all.

  6. I like them both but I LOVE the dotted background. Reminds me of the sugar coated gumdrops my grandmother always had at her house!
