A Vintage Santa - Challenge #45 at Completely Christmas

First Christmas card for the year! It's the start of a new challenge at Completely Christmas Challenge Blog and I unfortunately missed the first one for the year but am loving this lovely vintage image supplied by our sponsor Dazzling Ace Designs.
Another scheduled post as we are off to an 80th birthday party today. We have only met the man a couple of times but my hubby is good friends with his son who he worked with interstate. They have the same name, but he has had a brain tumor and hasn't been able to drive his crane. He still lives interstate and his sister thought since he was coming over for his dad's birthday that it would be a great opportunity for the two Adrians to catch up.
Well back to the challenge, we have a twist this week of adding some Christmas Foliage.
Here is my card.......

Well, that's it from me as time is getting short and we have about a 1 1/2 hour drive to get to our friend's property. It took us a while to find it last time as it's rural property and wasn't listed in the street directory. Hopefully hubby remembers where to go, lol.
Love to see you pop into the challenge blog and enter this weeks challenge and my teamies and I would also appreciate a visit too.
Thanks for stopping by,
Take Care,
Hugs,
