Happy Friday to you! Friday already!!! Here's hoping we go pick out our tree tonight (fingers crossed!) I am super excited to share TWO posts with you again today...both using My Digital Studio!
The first project are these little gems! Aren't they SO STINKIN CUTE??? I have seen these before, and actually made something similar I think about 7 years ago...but I painted them and didn't use fabric. It's funny how crafting goes in cycles!
For these little guys, I created the snowmen in My Digital studio and printed two per page (see the image to the right). I cut the paper to measure 5 3/4 x 5 1/2 (cut off the excess paper on the left side of the page). The rest of the assembly process is shown in the video for you! I had this fabric here for some other project I did but I will be making more using the Candy Cane Christmas fabric! Can't wait (will share those photos when I'm done them:)
As you can see on the image I created in MDS, I drew the smiles on with a Basic Black marker. The elements I used to create these little munchkins are:
Basic Black buttons (for buttons)
Heart punch filled with DSP
stitching
circle punch filled with Pink Pirouette and then I dropped a shadow
pennant punch filled with Pumpkin Pie
black brads for the eyes
I hope you like this first creation of the day! Make sure you stop by again this afternoon to see day 2 of Adam's 12 days of cheesy Christmas!
I love to make these- they are a big hit!!! Instead of wire I used those little elastics for hair and tied bakers twine with the awesome jingle bells! These are so cute!!! I found a template online- didn't even think to use MDS with the buttons, stitching and DSP! Brilliant!!!!

Oh my gosh, these are the cutest little smowmen I've seen this season - so adorable! The hats are priceless!
I don't do MDS but the design is still great for stampin'! Thanks for your charming ideas.

Very cute. Another one to pin, maybe I should just make a "Heather's Projects" board. LOL!
