Winter Warmies - my Toasted Marshmallow Snowman


The challenge at Fantabulous Cricut this week is Winter Warmies......and what could be warmer than a little toasted marshmallow snowman! The snowman is a freebie from Little Scraps of Heaven this week.....I added some Doodlecharms arms and a hat from Paper Doll Dress Up. Paper is from an old DCWV paper stack....added a little rick rack....and a pink stamp that shows up better in person. Embellies are MS snowflakes punch cut out of metallic paper. Sketch is Jitterbuggin' this week.


To enter at Fantabulous Cricut, include a Cricut cut of some winter apparel on your project. For Jitterbuggin', you can use this sketch, add something blue, and include something "snowy." This card also fits with My Sheri Crafts "Winter" theme this week.

Pringles Snowman Gift Wrap



Here's a quick and easy green way to wrap socks or underwear. Place them in an empty Pringles can. Wrap a piece of white paper around the can (It won't go all the way to the top, but it doesn't matter because the hat will cover it.) Now wrap white felt around the paper. Spray adhesive is great here! Cut a rectangle of fleece that will fit around the cylinder for a hat. I pinked little strips around the top edge. Flip up the bottom edge for a brim and glue. Gather the top with a rubberband. Tie a long strip of fleece for a scarf. Add wiggle eyes, buttons, and some rick rack for a mouth. I used my Cricut to cut out a nose.....folded the edge in and attached for dimension.

Warm Wishes

Loved the sketch on RAQ's challenge....last week!   Needless to say I'm a little behind, but a great sketch is a great sketch.  Here is my version.


Used Doodlecharms Snowman, cut in layers on white and pearlescent white.  Inked the cheeks and sharpied the face.  He's cut at 3".  The hat is PDDU, magician, cut at 1 1/4" RDS.  Added a strip of plaid.  The scarf is EDPD, cut at 1 1/4" RDS in plaid.  Added buttons.   The background snowflakes are from Winter Woodlands, added gems.  The sentiment is a generic stamp from last Christmas.  Attached some buttons and gem stones, MS snowflakes....and the paper was all scraps.
