Santa Carrying Elf

Joyful vector illustration of Santa Claus holding a cheerful Christmas elf in his arms. Santa has a jovial expression with wide twinkling eyes, rosy cheeks, a large open-mouthed smile with teeth and tongue, wearing his classic red suit with thick white fur trim and cuffs, a wide black belt with a large gold rectangular buckle, and large black boots. He cradles the elf with one arm supporting the legs and the other the back. The elf has brown hair, pointed ears, a bright green hat with a feather, a green tunic with belt and gold buckle, green leggings, and curled-toe green shoes with one arm around Santa's neck and the other extended in a welcoming gesture. Thick dark outlines with cel-shaded bold festive colors on a white background. Perfect for Christmas character illustrations, Santa and elf themed designs, holiday greeting cards, and festive storybook artwork.
