Illustrated Snow Globe Characters

Step 1Take out the cardboard provided inside the snow globe.
Step 2Fill your snow globe with water. Set aside and allow to dry.
Step 3Sketch out your design onto a piece of paper before you start to decorate the cardboard insert. Once you have a design, transfer it lightly onto your cardboard insert using a pencil. This is not essential, but helps with planning your design. Look to our snow globe designs above for inspiration or come up with your own.
Step 4Use markers to colour in your design.
Step 5If you would like to insert a photo instead, use the cardboard insert provided as a template for your photos. Trace around the cardboard onto your photo. Carefully cut out your photo.
When working with photos we recommend photocopying your photos rather than cutting up an original!
Step 7Slide your illustration or photo into the snow globe and slide the latch over the slot to secure.
