Christmas with the Cuties; Christmas + Cute + hand-colored; my card has a stamped image with some inking to look like snowy weather plus the coloring for the snowman's carrot nose & scarf, the bunny, and then with a detail tip black pen I colored the sticks and coal pieces on the snowman; with a blue marker tip I colored the little stamped snowflake dots
