Information

       used AI make to create this adorable Abominable Snowman. I live traced him and ended up creating 5 layers. This piece can be used as wall art, a stand-up figure, or a tree ornament. I recommend keeping it 5-6 inches or larger because of the detailed cuts. Also, the top layer is not pictured in the final result, I decided to forgo it but used pieces of the eyes from it. This is an easy template except for the eyes as you have to use pieces from each cut for the eyes. Keep everything that falls to the bottom of your honeycomb until you have this complete.

The prompt I used was: create a vector cartoon graphic of the abominable snowman that was Pixar Inspired but not the same. 

If you bookmark this or download it, please give it a thumbs up to support me! Thank you!

There are two files for this. One has a hanger for an ornament and the other does not have an eye hole.

This project has some small details that may fall through your honeycomb. Make sure you collect everything.

Step4: Clean any burn marks

The white MDF hardboard from Home Depot is so cost effective and works great, but it does create a soot you need to wipe clean with a wet one, magic eraser, or water and towel.

Step5: Locate the eye

Carefully punch out the right eye from this cut piece. It is the second cut piece from the bottom (medium blue) if following my directions.

While you can decide on any color combo you like, here is what I did:

Bottom layer: white

Second from the bottom layer: medium blue

Third from the bottom: light blue

Top layer: white

Teeth: you can either not use the small teeth and let the white from the background show through or slip them in the slot. As pictured, the teeth are in the slot.

The tongue fits right into the black mouth.

The eyes are the trickiest and they may brake into two outer shapes if you sized the piece too small. No worries, you can just glue them at the end.

Step7: Glue together

Glue the pieces in the correct order listed above:

White silhouette layer is the bottom

Medium blue layer is the second from the bottom

Light blue is the third layer from the bottom

White detailed layer is the second from the top

Black or dark blue outline is the top layer (I did not use this as a layer but use the pieces cut out for the eyes.

 

I reccomend using a book or clamps to hold the pieces together after gluing.
