Craft Time: Snowman Foot Prints

I spend lots of time on Pinterest searching for new craft ideas.  So, when little brother's preschool announced a Snowman decorating contest last week I knew that I had to check out my faves on Pinterest to see what I could enter. I ran across this really cute and super easy snowman a few months ago and had pinned it for a fun idea. 

The original Snowman was applied to a t-shirt -

I decided to make my Snowman into a door hanger using regular cardstock and some ribbon:


A little white paint applied to the bottom of those cute footsies – be prepared for giggling baby – and then transfer ‘footprint’ to cardstock.  I found that the high chair was a handy helper to keep baby from moving around too much during the painting and transferring process.

I decorated the Snowman with a black top hat cut from my cricut machine (Paper Dolls cartridge), ‘coal’ eyes and buttons made from a hole punch and black paper.  His scarf is an old shoestring and the snowflakes are from the Accents cricut cartridge.
