He's a cute little elf, I'm sure your MIL will just love him. Luvs

Your MIL is gonna love that! I think the purple and red look really good together. Very cute details and great job on the face. He looks so comfortable laying there on the couch. ha Can't wait to see the Santa. =) ~Anj

I think it is darling, but then you know I love purple. And purple and red do well together - they are next to each other on the color wheel. Great job.

Very nice!! What a cute face!! Jan

Great Elf and the eyes are beautiful! And I like the colors! Whoever said Christmas had to be red and green?

Where ever did you find the idea? I have been painting ornaments for my GS and several friend children for over 16 and have never found anything as nice as yours.

Pezabelle, I painted this from a book by Carol Mays called Holiday Helpers. The red and pruple elf is on the front cover. There is two pattern sizes for the elf in her book. She also has some pretty cute snowmen.

Phonegirl, thank you for the heads-up on the the elf...I will check around and see if I can find the book or more items from the artist.
