Oh, I love this salty Santa. Could just see him pulling the cork out of an eggnog jug with his teeth.

Have really enjoyed seeing your illustrations this year. Have a wonderful holiday and best wishes for the new year!

Yoooouuuu! Your stuff gives me the giggles something fierce! This scurvy, peg-legged Santa is killin' me over here!

I think instead of making my own cards, next year I'm getting yours! They're so much more awesome than any I've seen!!

Happy New Year, Meridth!!
