I used SU circle punches for my crescent moon shape and the slotted punch for the brim of his hat. I colored the face with Copic markers, drew the slit lines for his eye and mouth with SU markers, used liquid applique and fun flock for his beard, and puffy paint for the brim of his hat. It took me a while to just make this Moon Santa, but that's what a challenge is all about, right?
TFL!
