Envelope Punch Board Snowman Soup

IMG_7760 (1)-2

I loved making these snowmen last year from Jackie’s tutorial (a super talented demonstrator that I was fortunate enough to not only meet in person last year, but I got a swap from her!!) last year I made them and put flat chocolates inside them. This year I modified the design slightly to make them accommodate a pack of “snowman soup”.

The measurements for the body of the snowman that I made were to cut a 5cm wide strip from the full length of an A4 sheet i.e. 5cm x 29.7cm. I then scored the sheet at 13.5cm from each end to create a gap of ~2.7cm in the centre that will accommodate the hot chocolate mixture.

For the frilly part of the scarf I folded over the end of the All is Calm washi tape about a centimetre before I cut it to make it more dimensional. The buttons were from the Owl punch and the details added with the thicker Project Life journalling pen. The carrot nose was the small heart punch from the Itty Bitty Accents pack cut in half and the base rounded slightly. I apologise I used the small retired flower punch for the centre of the holly, but the small flower from Boho Blossoms would look just as good in the red glimmer paper. The best way I have found for adhering the glimmer paper is with glue dots.

I wrote the sentiment on the computer and printed out and punched with the 1 3/4″ circle punch and layered onto a 2″ circle of pear pizzazz card stock and put it on the back of his hat.

These make great little gifts for colleagues, as place settings or hanging on the tree!
