One last Christmas card

This is a card that my 10 year old son made. I gave him my reindeer cutouts from the cards I made and also cut out a sleigh-I think from Joys of the Season. I let him loose in my room and this is what he made. The white stuff is cornstarch-I gave him that to brush on where he overdid the glue. He thought it looked like snow so he was happy with having to use it. He made one for each of us and wrote our name on top with a sakura souffle pen. The cardstocks are lasting impressions and SU (for the sleigh). The color is a bit off here-the top part is actually more green and not so yellow. I forgot to do a custom white balance before I took the picture. This one was his dad's card. For some reason he put our actual names on instead of mom and dad.

What a great idea to let him make his own cards! IT looks great, and the cornstarch (which I wouldn't have noticed if you hadn't mentioned it) does look like snow. He did a great job!

He did a great job. It looks like he took his time. My son is always in a hurry and you can tell. I think he only makes cards to humor me. My girls really enjoy it though.
