Tips & Techniques 7: Snowman with Checkered Hat

a
Cool, handsome and a twinkle in his eye. Who can resist... Ready for the holiday season, this little guy is lots of fun to color! I'm using the Snowman with Checkered Hat (6004), but you can certainly try this with other snowman images.

a
Step 1 - Getting Started
a
Chartreuse
in the outer margin, hat, leaves and a touch of Deco Pink on his cheeks. Blue Slate in the stary sky and on his jaw.
a
Step 2 - Lime Peel and Pumpkin
a
Lime Peel
goes over the Chartreuse margins, holly leaves and begins to shade the left side of his cap. Don't forget that carrot nose with a pencil called Pumpkin.
a
Step 3 - Final Touches
a
Add a bit more blue to the sky with Copenhagen Blue in the corners. Scarlet Lake finishes his ear muffs, scarf and sweater. Your little snowman is done!

Here are a few samples of images I've colored for my Christmas cards.

Have fun and keep coloring!
