20 Spectacular Snowflakes

Each of the snowflakes in this slideshow was created with a virtual pair of scissors and a virtual folded piece of paper. Many flakemakers also include messages with their snowflakes, which you'll get to see in the following 19 slides -- which originate from all over the world. This flake was created by Shapeshifter.

Search Tip: You can search for snowflakes by maker's name in our Make-a-Snowflake program. So if you like Shapeshifter's work, type in Shapeshifter in the Find a Flake searchbox.
