The Day After gift set

Happy Happy New Year's Eve blogland. How the heck has everyone's holiday been going? Here on the home front, I am starting to see light at the end of the tunnel. Finally!!! I have a set I made for Christmas and wanted to share. Have you ever wondered where Santa goes after his long season? Well this is where I believe he goes. To the south pole, kicking back on the beach and watching some good 'ol football....ENJOY!!!!


 
Here's the set with the lights on...
I decided the sandcastle really needs a colored light to match the other ones. So I will be adding one of those ...this is a late Christmas gift...
**********
This set comes from different kits from SVG CUTS .... can I say, O EM GGGGG...I am in heaven. I love love this place. These kits take all of the guessing and measuring out of creating a new creation. A huge time saver. And I can't wait to get to play with more.
********
3D Sandcastle--Wet and Wild kit
Shadowbox Frame--Santa's Helpful Elves kit
Palm Tree--Toil & Trouble kit (apothecary jar tall)
 
the little white doohickey on the palm tree is what the light looks like that changes colors...I put one at the bottom of the south pole sign to up light it and one on the frame just above santa sitting on the beach. The sandcastle has a string of lights that I inserted into the box of it. The lid is the perfect size to house the battery box. Picture is posted below of opened lid with battery...
 
And this is what Santa does the day after...lol...here I stuck a t.v. set on a barbar pole, added some foil for rabbit ears...ha ha!! Hey, he's on an island...
