Directions:
- First things first – fold your BLUE cardstock paper in half and open it back up.
- Grab your white Tulip puffy paint and squirt some white craft paint ON ONE SIDE before closing it up again.
- Once the paper is closed for the second time, gently take your hand and “caress” the paper so the white paint inside, makes a fun symmetrical print design on both sides of the paper {keep in mind – paint might ooze from the sides of the cardstock, so be sure to work in an area that can get dirty!}
- Now you are ready to open it back up and see the BEGINNING of what your melted puddle of snowmen will eventually be. From there you decorate it to bring it to life and give it life.
- Next up, grab the remaining sheets of cardstock paper and your scissors.
- Cut out a scarf, eyes, carrot nose, hat etc. from the paper.
- Finally – the last step in completing this melted snowman paper craft is to glue down ALL the cardstock cutout pieces, on top of the paint splat design.
- Once finished with your custom melted snowman masterpiece, then set aside to let it dry completely, before displaying proudly! And of course – repeat as many times as you like! No two pieces will be the same and I think that’s what makes it even more fun!
