Twinkle the snowflake is one of a kind. She floats softly through the winter sky, turning and dancing along the way. Her fancy branches make a beautiful pattern. Choose your favorite colors to make Twinkle shine!
Twinkle looks like a little winter star floating through the sky. Her six fancy arms branch outward in a beautiful, balanced pattern. Each point has tiny shapes that make her look special from every direction. She may be drifting past rooftops, trees, and sleepy animals below. This picture gives you lots of small spaces to decorate carefully. Will Twinkle be an icy blue snowflake, a rainbow star, or something completely new?
Use light blue, turquoise, and purple to create an icy snowflake, leaving some parts white for a frosty shine. For a bright fantasy version, color one arm pink, the next yellow, then keep changing colors around the shape. Add silver or glittery pencil details if you have them. A dark navy background makes a pale snowflake stand out. You could also draw tiny dots around Twinkle to show a sparkling winter sky.
Snowflakes form when tiny drops of water freeze high in cold clouds. Most snowflakes have six sides or six main arms because of the way ice crystals grow. They can make many different patterns, including stars, plates, and feathery shapes. Snowflakes look white when lots of them are piled together, even though one small ice crystal can be clear. The shape changes as the flake travels through the cloud.
