Inspired by a child's drawings of snowmen, this card, from the Erickson family of Burbank, California, is a treat for both the sender and the receiver.

Materials

• Sheets of plain paper
• Sheets of patterned paper
• Card stock
• Pens or pencils

• Color copy service
• Glue stick
• Scissors

Instructions

1. To start, draw several 3- by 3 1/2-inch squares on a sheet of paper, and have your child draw a snowman in each square. Have color copies made and cut out the pictures.

2. Cut an 8 1/2 by 11-inch sheet of card stock in half, then fold each in half to make two cards. With a glue stick, attach patterned paper from a scrapbook store to the front of the card and then a snowman to the patterned paper.

Tips:

Inside the card, use photo corners (available at craft stores) to affix a photo of your kids or family.
