Next you print out or handwrite the text and stick it on.

The text reads..."Every time a snowman melts...A snow angel goes to heaven!"


I made this for my grandchildren for Christmas and they were just mesmerised with it. A great successs!!!!
Hadn't got bottom of pizza, so used some packaging from t.v. (the white styrofoam). It was thick, but children didn't mind.
I hadn't got a ball, so I used electric carving knife to make the shape of the head, painted the head black with shoe polish, stuck a tiny piece of carved carrot in for the mouth, stuck 2 peppercorns on for eyes, a piece of red material for scarf and presto - magic!!!!!
