Snowman Candles

I just fell in love with these darling little snowmen candles that Becky Roberts shared on her blog!!

Is this little guy cute or what?  He is made with the little electric tea lights. 

Card Stock: Gumball Green, Cherry Cobbler, Whisper White

Punches:  1/2" circle, 1 3/8" circle, 1 3/4" Scallop Circle, Extra Large Oval, Large Oval

About 16" of the Sweater Trim (page 11 of the Holiday Catalog)

Lattice Square Embossing Folder

Basic Pearls – I painted them with a black Sharpie

For the head,  you punch a 1/2" circle in a piece of Whisper White card stock.  Then frame  the 1 3/8" circle punch around the 1/2" circle and punch.  This is the face and fits over the "nose" candle light.  Add the small pearls for the mouth and the medium pearls for the eyes.

For the hat, punch out half of the extra large oval in Gumball Green.  Cherry Cobbler for the brim – using the large oval, snip out a piece – then snip another piece for the brim.  Attach to the hat and using the 1/2" circle punch out for the pom pom. Glue these all together and run through the Square Lattice Embossing Folder.

Attach to the face with adhesive

Punch out a 1 3/4" scallop circle in Gumball Green and then add a little punch from teh 1/2" circle so that you can turn the candle on and off.  Attach to the back

Tie the Gumball Green, Cherry Cobbler or Whisper White Sweater Trim around the candle (neck???) and your are done!!

Aren't these just the cutest?

The back
