My tag today is not the result of great planning to commemorate this occasion -- but more a result of all things working together coincidentally for good. I started working on this tag yesterday when I saw Tim Holtz' tag offering. But the background didn't come out quite as well -- I think maybe I didn't have quite the same green paint as he did. So from there I just launched out on my own. I decided to add the Santa (taken from last year's Christmas cards), only to find out today is St. Nicholas Day. Very cool.
It still needed a little something, so when I saw the theme of Saturday Workout was to use a sprayed background, I thought that would be just the thing to finish this tag off. So I used my Twinkling H2O's and splattered the paint across the tag. Perfect finish to it, I think.

Happy St. Nicholas Day
I remember celebrating St. Nicholas day when I was young -- leaving our shoes by the front door before going to bed and finding them filled with goodies when we woke up. And, most importantly, not finding the dreaded lump of coal.
