Found inspiration last night in the sketch challenge and the color challenge. Was sure I could find something close to Calypso Coral and then discovered I had a whole pack of it that had never been opened - had it misfiled.
Don't look too close, I did this late last night and this morning I realized I colored my Santa's differently - looks like he got a bit redder as the pictures progressed. Funny how things turn out like that.
The SCSCC challenge for August was Christmas Renovation - totally revamp a previous Christmas card - here is the card I revamped:

Nancy, what a great idea to use your Santa 3 times - maybe the "red" in his cheeks is due to a little "nip" while he works????
Love the soft coloring and the 'tip' of the panels, with the greenery in the corners - Such a delightful Christmas card!! LOVE IT!!
Hugs!

Awesome card to cover all three challenges! I wouldn't have looked too hard, if you hadn't told me not to! I must be more tired now, than you were when you colored this, 'cause I can't see it!
