The Peachy Keen "Let's Face It Fridays" Challenge #4 was for us to make an ornament using a PKS face stamp. This was the perfect chance to part my rolly polly snowman idea. Step by step instructions are below. Please see the PKS Challenge site HERE to fit out the former great design team ideas! If you make any Peachy Keen face stamps, you can bring on in the dispute for a chance to win the NEW chipboard ornament shapes and stamp set!

Supplies Needed:
*All punches listed are Stampin' Up!
1 3/4" Circle punch - SNOWMAN BELLY
Ornament - HEAD
Small Oval punch - BOOTS
Medium Oval Punch - BOOTS & MITTENS
Modern Label - ARMS & LEGS
Large Oval Punch - HAT BRIM
Scallop Oval Punch - HAT BRIM
Full Heart Punch - HAT
Word window Punch - MITTEN CUFFS
Small Heart Punch - MITTEN
Boho Blossoms Punch - HAT
White cardstock (I used shimmery white)
Black cardstock for boots
Patterned papers for mittens and hat
Ribbon of quality for scarf
Peachy Keen Winter Faces 1 1/8" stamp set
black ink pad
pumpkin pie marker
pink pirouette ink pad and sponge dauber
glue, dimensionals, crop-a-dile, bone folder, 1/8" taffetta ribbon or cording
1) Punch out 16 white 1 3/4" circles. Fold each lot in half. Use a bone folder to point the folds.
2) Start with the foremost circle folded in half. Put adhesive on the top side and tie another circle half to it. (I recommend applying adhesive to the centers of the circles. This way, the edges will be subject and you can shift the head, arms and legs between the layers)

3) Continue to gum and peck the circles together, adding only adhesive to the top of the stack. After gluing all of the circles together, you will get a mountain like this.

4) When you submit your finger off the stack, it will naturally wish to fan out like this.

5) Glue the ends of the fan together to make a ball. This is the snowman's belly piece.
6) Punch out 4 modern labels. Glue these onto the bed and sides of the snowman for the blazon and legs. (if you glued only the centers of the circles, the edges will be clear and you can slide the blazon and legs between the layers). You may get to trim a small off each end of the judge to get the legs and arms positioned properly.
7) For the mittens, punch 2 medium ovals, 2 small hearts and one word window. Cut the news window in half and turn out the end on each half to make the cuffs. Glue the cuffs onto the bottom of ovals. Glue the heart onto the support of the mitten for the thumb. Attach mittens to arms with dimensionals.

8) Punch 2 black small ovals and 2 black medium ovals. Cut each end off of the small ovals so that the full distance of the man is 5/8". Glue onto end of leg. Cut the tail off of medium oval and bind to pick with dimensional. Add highlight with white gel pen.
9) Punch a white ornament. Stamp the face, color the wind and add pink cheeks with a sponge dauber. Apply some glue to the cervix of the grace and slew it between the top layers of the ball (this is where the tip in tone 1 comes in handy).
10) For hat brim, first punch half of the large oval. Then, line up the scallop oval over the top of that pluged hole and punch the brim. Glue the good heart onto back of head. Attach brim of hat with dimensional. Clip the ends of the little oval to build a target for the hat. Attach with dimensional. Punch a boho blossom and bind to hat (you may need to add glitter to the tassle).
11) Punch a trap in top of hat and tie on a thread or cording for a hanger.
