  • Punch the snowman using the Snowman Builder Punch from Whisper White.  Add features using the Let It Snow Embellishments Kit.  For the face, start with the carrot nose and then add the eyes and mouth.  Add the buttons down the front.  Use the Snowfall Accents Puff Paint to fill in around the features and cover most of the snowman.  Heat with the Heat Tool to make the paint puff.  Add the snowman to the navy stripe with Stampin’ Dimensionals.  Complete with the arms from the kit.  Add the hat and scarf in Flirty Flamingo using a little glue and Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  • The sentiment is stamped on a piece of Whisper White measuring 5/8 x 3 ½.  Stamp in Flirty Flamingo ink.  Notch the ends using the Triple Banner Punch.  Add using Stampin’ Dimensionals and place this just under the snowman so he has a little snow under him. We don’t want him just floating!
  • Add the mittens with a dot of glue and Stampin’ Dimensionals.
