It'southward also easy to tweak this snowflake drawing for a bit of variety. For example, the diamonds on the tips could be circles instead.

Materials for Snowflake Cartoon

  • Eraser. Large ones you can hold in your hand do a much amend job than just the pencil tips.
  • Blackness Sharpie Marker. These fine point permanent marker pens make nice black outlines, have a good tip for coloring, and never bleed when they become wet. Use them with good ventilation and add extra paper underneath to protect your tables.
  • Prang Crayons. These are a bit softer than other crayons and then they sometimes expect similar oil pastels. They also have a some nice brown shades that Crayola does not take unless you buy their larger boxes.
  • Crayola Crayons. The reliable make that ever works well. The 24 pack has some of my favorite gilded orange and yellow colors that seem a bit richer and warmer than the ones Prang has.
