Tombo watercolor markers

Hello Friends, How are you doing? Feeling frosty? I hope you have something to smile about today.

NIght time snowman
I was in the mood to try something different and I hope you like it?  I wanted to try and create a snowman late into the evening without any moon. I am thinking that this is how dark a snowman would be under these circumstances. 
I used Tombo markers with regular white card stock. You have to be very careful that your paper doesn’t pill. The background is distress ink.

Have a great day! Hugs, Kathy

    lol that’s funny that you created the right image with right color for that circumstances! You are right! Snowman looks like it withought moonlight! Still Beautiful! 🙂 Smile? well, i saw Green/Ground today for the first time in Weeks! In fact, maybe first time in December! The temp. went up above 32F so 1/3 of the snow on the ground has melted! That made me SMILE! 🙂
