Christmas Craft - Paper Craft - Window Decorations - Stitched Paper Snowman

Add a touch of winter to your windows before and after Christmas. This snowman is very simple to cut, and if left as it is, an easy craft for kids to do. One could go a step further and add the stitching. This requires more time but gives the snowman a great country look - almost like an applique.

Christmas and Winter Paper Craft - Stitched Paper Snowman

Instructions:

1. Print out the pattern to fit your printer paper and create permanent templates with the pattern. Trace the templates onto the appropriate colored cardstock and cut out.(If you would like both sides to look finished, cut all parts twice out except for the snowman body.)
2. Poke evenly spaced holes about 0.75 mm or 1/4 inch from the edge and from each other. Hand stitch either a blanket stitch through these holes or use a regular sewing stitch. A combination of both looks also great.
3. Once all of the stitching is completed, glue the parts onto the snowman. Start with the scarf tail then the scarf neck part. Adhere the hat band to the hat and then glue the hat on the snowman. Add the nose.
4. Dot 2 small black eyes over the nose.
5. Tie a string to the top stitching for hanging the snowman.

Greeting Cards and Birthday Cards
There are so many occasions in the year when you need greeting cards. Whether it be a birthday, an anniversary, a holiday like Christmas or even for the birth of a baby, the reasons are many. Before you go out and buy another card, consider crafting your own personal cards. Creating hand made greeting cards can be so rewarding. Think of your cards as miniature works of art that you are giving to someone. Not only are you giving that special someone a moment of your time by creating that special card for him or her, but a hand made card will often be kept and cherished as a reminder of you.
 

Papercrafts and Card Making Tips and Tutorials
These tutorials are especially made to help describe the techniques used to make the different card, tag and ATC crafts shown on this site.
 

Tags
Tags are not only perfect for presents but also can be used for decorating cards and scrapbook pages to give them an extra accent or decorating element. Tags can be created sophisticated or as simple as necessary to fit the look you like. Find here examples of tags using different types of paper and decorating elements. New tags will be added on a regular basis.
 

Artist Trading Cards
Artist Trading Cards or otherwise known as ATC’s are created in the size of 2 1/2 x 3 1/2 inches or 64 x 89 millimeters (6.4 x 8.9 centimeters). These are small and self-made miniature works of art. Other than the size, there are no particular rules to follow. Combine different materials and elements to create unique and one of a kind cards. Sign, number and date the backs of your cards. These cards are not meant to be sold but if you like, there are groups that trade and collect these cards. You can find them on the internet in different craft forums.
