Christmas season is the most festive period of the year. Actually, Christmas is the best and the biggest holidays of all. This time is the special one when you feel inspired with the forthcoming holidays and expect for the real wonder. What can be better than crispy air and playing snowballs, walking in the beautiful abandoned parks with all trees covered with snow? Don’t you appreciate the pleasant to your heart evenings with your family gathered at the table of sitting near the fireplace? All these moments make our life saturated with happiness and joy. Christmas is on the door-step and our anticipation of it becomes even more impatient. At last only few days are left until this festive and merry holiday. We have decided to keep this high spirit and present you this nice post dedicated to X-Mas. Enjoy it!

The creator of this nice illustration says that it was inspired by the famous Coca Cola advertising paintings of Santa. They were done by Norman Rockwell in the forties and fifties. In this picture the author has captured this friendly and at the same time slightly naughty expression of Santa.

All little children are fond of winter. What can be better than playing snowballs and making snowmen with eyes from small pieces of coal and carrot nose? And the best thing about winter is the feastful holiday season and, of course, Christmas.

Before Christmas time Santa has great job to be done. He packs presents in bright boxes and compiles the lists of the good boys and girls that will receive these presents. Only good and obedient children get what they wish for Christmas, be sure.

Personally I’m fond of decorating the house before Christmas. The tree should be bright and that’s why I choose a lot of tinsels and decorative balls of all shapes and colors. This illustration pictures the stunning 3D model of the Christmas toys that are so lovely and nice.

One crisp winter day,
2 little elves came out to play.
To Santa’s surprise,
and with a sparkle in their eyes,
they managed to sneak a gift,
right after their shift!
Hope, you have enjoyed this nice Chrsitmas collection full of fun and holiday spirit.
