Use Tombow markers (and a secret trick) to make a hand lettered Christmas Tree Card! 

Hand Lettered Christmas Tree Card with Free Printable

If there was ever a year that was needed more Christmas cards, I think this would be it. I think we could all use more meaningful connections right now. I wanted to make a simple Christmas card using hand lettering, but I'm honestly not the best at it. Hand lettering practice sheets are all about tracing, so I took that technique and put it to use with this free printable Christmas Tree Card. All you have to do is print it out, and get artsy with your favorite markers!
