I scanned the santa face to my computer
then I opened it into my Print Master program
I bought at Target..
I set up an Avery project for a--return label -- added the santa face
above
when I added it to the Avery label 'space'
I didn't fill the whole label I
made it a smaller size
then the return label ..

then the return label ..
then when it printed out it was a full 11 x 8.5 sheet
(as that Avery return label sheet is) it was a full sheet ..
multiple faces..
this is what I did
wasn't the easiest..but
all I can say is do what you can to make the faces approx. 1 inch high by 1/2 inch wide..after they are trimmed they are smaller (:)
I found the chenille pipe cleaners at
Hobby lobby..
Hobby lobby..
the red and green fat bumpy ones
plus some regular red pipe cleaners for the arms...
below is what you'll need
printed out santa faces ..they will be rectangular so
cut them duh (:)
out around the head and beard..
wire cutters
needle nose pliers
scissors
tacky glue
cute out the faces
above
two santas
one p cleaner is the hat..body..legs..feet
can be made from the one cleaner
put the thin part over your finger ..bend it
cut off the foot
bend the feet up a little
add the arms behind the neck area..
twist it around you may have to scoot it down
a little after it on
snip the tree
twist the red hand around the tree base tightly
with needle nose pliers curl up the empty hand some
glue the face on
I love these Patty. Think of all the things that can be made like that. xoxo,Susie
