{Frosty the Canvas Snowman}

HELLO there friends.
Today I am sharing with you my 
"Frosty The Canvas Snowman" 
I used "3" different sized CHUNKY Canvas Corp. boards to create him.
I used "3" chunky canvas boards for the snowman. 
I used sticks from my back yard tree to create his arms.
I used a piece of orange fabric scrap for the carrot nose.
I used black felt I cut into circles for the buttons and the eyes.
I used pink paint and a round foam stamp for the winter rosy cheeks.
I used a cut piece of minky fabric for the scarf. Fabric from Poppyseed Fabrics.
I used a walnut stain stamp for the edges to give it more dimension and weather it a little.
I used a cut piece of black waxed cotton for the mouth. Waxed cotton from Canvas Corp.
......and if I didn't RUN OUT OF BLACK FELT I would of made him his top hat, I still PLAN on doing so. ;)


 


THANK you so much for stopping by COM today.

Very cute. And the tree looks like mine with blue and snowflakes. Did mine this year in snowmen, snowflakes, and blue and white balls.
