LOL This is for my son, Anthony. He is 23 years old and is in college, but he is coming home this weekend. YAY!
I love this vintage Santa, but he does seem like he is a little grumpy. Special thanks to Nancy for the black enamel accents! I used it to glue the sequins and buttons onto the card. Kinda hard to tell, but it fills the holes nicely.
Thank you Birgit for a fun Merry Mixed Media challenge!

This is so cool .... love the burst of color highlighting Santa! I think Santa looks more stern, than grumpy. Maybe he is looking over the naughty list.

Oh, I suggest your son stays on this Santa's good side otherwise he will find a lump of coal. A really fun card which I am sure your son is going to love.

It's a good thing this is going to a twenty something guy instead of a little guy..he might be afraid of Santa! That bg is so cool, kind of psychedelic!!! The sequins and buttons are the perfect accent for this wild Santa! I predict that Anthony will love it! Have fun together!

I think he's checking it twice and he forgot his reading glasses! Love the idea of using the enamel to fill in the button holes and the sparkly sequins.
