NOTE: Do the Stampendous Shape Shift on this card in order to create the look of many different snowmen. Deliberately distort the snowman image on the acrylic block to make him tall, short, skinny or fat.

1. Fold tag card accordion style and stamp first snowman on front panel. Start by stamping the bird’s tail immediately to the left of the tag hole. Stamp the hat under the bird and a tall snowman under his hat going off the bottom edge.

2. Open the first panel to the left and stamp the “normal” snowman on the second panel. To make him look like his indexed image place the Clear Stamp upside down on the printed index image, then put the acrylic handle on top and press. When the handle is removed the snowman will be attached in the correct orientation. Stamp a separate cardinal on a scrap and cut out for this snowman.

3. Open the second panel to the right. This snowman will actually be on the BACK of the card. Stamp a tall, skinny snowman off the left edge at the very top of the tag. Stamp a separate jingle bell hat for this snowman on a scrap and cut out.

4. Open the third panel to the left. Stamp a very tall snowman on a separate piece of white card stock. Stamp a separate scarf for him on card stock as well.

5. Watercolor all snowmen and accessories.

6. Add glitter as desired with glue pen.

7. Glue tall snowman to inside back panel. Cut his scarf in half and position the tails to look like they are blowing in the winter wind. Glue it on his neck.

8. Glue separate cardinal and hat on their appropriate snowmen.
