Snow-Capped Merry Christmas Letters Beneath Five Stars

Bold block letters spell MERRY CHRISTMAS in the middle of the page, each one topped with a cap of snow and finished with a drop shadow. Above the words are five stars in different sizes, with the biggest ones on the left and tiny ones trailing off to the right. A string of little bulb lights curls around the top and sides in a loose circle, and the same vine of lights appears again below the lettering. At the bottom sits a large ribbon bow with a center knot, two wide loops, and long tails with notched ends. The thick outlines and mix of large and small areas work well for markers, gel pens, or colored pencils. Try coloring the bulbs in alternating colors, then leave the snowy letter tops white and fill the letters with a bright shade so the lettering stands out. This free printable also makes a nice card front once it's finished.
