Snowman treat holder

Well I sure have snowmen on the brain.....and I've noticed I'm doing a whole lot more crafts lately than cards.  I will get back on track as soon as the holidays are over.  I just have so many inspirations right now and I want to make it all!  LOL

Today is from the Envelope punch board.  All you need is a sheet of white card stock and a sheet of black and then some tiny scraps of orange.

From white you will cut 1 strip 2  1/8 x 11 and score at 5 1/8 and 5  7/8.  Then using your punch board line 1 end up at 2 1/8 mark and punch....flip and repeat then do the same on the other end.  It should look like this:



Then from black cut one 2x2 square and two pieces 2 1/8 x 1/2.  On the 2x2 round the top corners and then place that centered into your punch board to cut a top notch.  Save that tiny piece punched out for the mouth.  Then with the 1/2" strips round the corners on all 4 sides.  Save those tiny pieces for the eyes.

Now assemble.  Place a York patty on one side of the body using score tape. Place the 2x2 square between the top edges of the body then add the brim to front and back.  The hat band and the scarf is washi tape.  Glue on mouth and eyes.  Cut little triangles from orange for the nose and I then added glitter glue for buttons.



I think they're pretty cute.  Kids are going to love them.

Off to do more
