I used the "telescoping" technique for the base of my snowman. TLC406 A Snowman says hello (1 ) by niki1 at Splitcoaststampers
The body is made with several graduated circle Spellbinders dies.
The head is simply a LED waxine light.
I colored the flame with an orange marker.
Its hat is made with several punches as are its buttons.
The arms of my snowman are made with parts of an ice crystal die ( LR0124 ) from Marianne design .
Some embroidery pattern to finish is it off.

This is a WOW card, Niki. In the thumbnail, I couldn't imagine how you got a light bulb for his nose...no coloring could make it glow like that. Creative...and darling and an extra special format too.
