DEAR SANTA

I friends, I've kind of been MIA this past two weeks.  Been getting my Christmas cards out, and wrapping my Christmas Gifts.  Because of Covid, I did a lot of shopping on line and I think
I have now received and wrapped most all of it.  Now to clean and decorate the house and
tree...

I recently purchased a couple of digital images from Louisa Lowry on Etsy (My Life In My Craft Room) and have had them colored up for awhile now but have not posted them so here is
the first one.



I love this Santa.  I have colored him with copics and used flower soft on the 
brim of his hat and on the tassel.  The pretty background paper is from
PT3 from Poland.  Gold Glitter paper and a red card base.

When our daughter was about 3 years old we took her to a large Department Store
in our small city to see Santa.  She wouldn't go anywhere near him as much as
he tried to assure her.  On our last try to get her to sit on his lap for a picture, he
said to her "your Mom Susie sat on my lap when she was little like you"  To 
This day, I do not know who was behind the Santa beard!, True story.

Thanks for stopping by today.
Have a great rest of the day.
Until later....

A super Christmas card Sue, a gorgeous Santa and great story.
We went to a small theme park with our son when he was little and they had a large white rabbit wandering around, he was absolutely terrified of it for some reason!
