30 DaYS Of GiFT MaKInG: DAY 8 - Three Snowmen Wall Hanging


Welcome to DAY 8 of 30 DaYS Of GiFT MaKInG !!! Yesterday, Candace made a beautiful treat box that you can see here ! To see all of the projects, start at our wonderful hostess Jill by clicking here.

OMG!!! This wall hanging came out so cute, it will be a gift to MYSELF !!! Even though I live in sunny, warm Puerto Rico most all of my Christmas Decorations are snowmen. I just love those cute guys !!! LOL My front yard looks like a Winter Wonderland at Christmas !!! Inside the house, well... I have more snowmen all around !!! Without further ado, here is my project:


  • Paint three 5.1 x 7.25 corner plaques by Plaid
  • From the Snow Friends cartridge, cut your favorite snowmen shapes. I used adhesive backed felt (Craft Felts) that I got at Walmart. I put the felt in my Cricut Expression and set the blade depth at six and multicut 4, but the blade could not cut through all the thickness. The blade left a very good impression on the felt and I cut over it with the scissors. 
    • Dress and bling up your snowmen.

  • Glue trimming around each plaque. I used a glue gun to do this.


  • Join the three plaques together. I did this by gluing down red ribbon at the back of the plaques with my glue gun, as shown in the picture below.

  • Hang your creation on the wall and enjoy your new piece of Christmas/winter Home Decor.

I am inviting you all to check in tomorrow with Kelly at http://kellyjoskreations.com/ to see what she has made to share with us !!! HaPPy CraFtiNg !!!
