To sit beside my gingerbread house (for a Christmas library display) my husband and I built a closer to home Christmas.

So here is our surfing Santa...

Great job 'lorax' !!  :sweet:

:laugh:  Surf lifesavers set up red and yellow flags to show which area is safest to swim (to avoid rips etc).  We just happened to have the Nocturnus flags lying around to do the job.

With the fleshie, we wanted him to have a different 'fake' skin tone (to reflect his vanity and fake tan).

Thanks Taz, I think it is because I am learning so much from others, like yourself.

This is cool - not something I really associate with the Christmas season (besides the chap on the surfboard, of course), but of course that's because I live in the UK  :tongue:
The water in the MOC is really, really well done, especially the wave around the surfboard!
